"Red shirts leaders not worried, power generators prepared"
By the Nation

"Red shirts leaders on Wednesday claimed they are not shaken by the government's warning of severing food and water supplies at the Rajprasong rally site.

They told reporters that they have their own power generators which would work immediately after the power supplies were cut.
Weng Tojirakarn, a red shirts leader, said, "None of the red shirts are afraid of your threats to cut water and power. We will run at soldiers with our two bare hands even if they fire at us with assault rifles."

"We just want Suthep Thaugsuban to publicly surrender himself to police," he said from a stage in the sprawling rally site in the capital where several shopping centres and upscale hotels have been forced to close temporarily.

The authorities announced new measures to take effect by midnight Wednesday to make life tougher in the sprawling encampment, cutting off electricity and water supplies as well as telephone and transportation links.

Sansern Kaewkumnerd, spokesman of Emergency Operations Center, said Wednesday that the cut of power and food supplies as well as telephone and transportation links would be cut around midnight on Wednesday.

"The people living in this area will be affected as well as embassies," said Sunsern.

Prime Minister Abhisit Vejjajiva has demanded the red shirts demonstrators leave the area on Wednesday, but the mainly poor and working class movement appeared in no mood to pack up and go home.

Protest leaders have vowed to continue their rally until deputy premier Suthep Thaugsuban surrendered to police, not Department of Special Investigation."
