[Chiou:] You are watching News Stream. And you're looking at a visual version of all the stories we've got in the show today. We have already told you about the controversy surrounding China's newly declared air defense zone. Later, we'll bring you reaction to the pope's call for change in the Catholic church. But first, let's go to the Thai capital of Bangkok. Anti-government protesters there are continuing their push to remove prime minister Yingluck Shinawatra. Part of that is a debate underway right now in parliament. Lawmakers are considering a no confidence motion as the opposition tries to bring down the government. A vote is expected tomorrow, Thursday, but given her party holds a majority there is very little chance that motion will actually succeed. Let's take a look at some of the sites where protesters have been gathering in the past couple of days. Demonstrators are still occupying the finance ministry building that they stormed on Monday. It is located in central Bangkok not far from parliament house and many of the city's popular tourist attractions. The agriculture and interior ministries were also surrounded. Red-shirt supporters of the government are staging their own protests gathering at a football stadium about 12 kilometers away. And today the department of special investigation became the latest target of anti-government protesters and that's where our own Anna Coren filed this report.
[Anna Coren, Cnn International Correspondent:] In the latest show of political turmoil here in Thailand, thousands of people have taken to the streets in Bangkok demanding the resignation of Thailand's prime minister Yingluck Shinawatra and her government. They say that she is just a puppet for her older brother Thaksin Shinawatra who was ousted from power during a military coup in 2006. Well, these protesters say they want an end to the Thaksin regime and an overhaul over the Thai political system.
[Unidentified Female:] I'm [inaudible] that Thailand to be red, yellow, I don't like it. I think [inaudible], you know, we have three colors blue, white and red together, not red, not yellow. It is together, same color, it's Thailand.
[Coren:] Well, Prime Minister Yingluck Shinawatra is refusing to go anywhere, instead calling for dialogue to end this political crisis. She has, however, given authorities more power to deal with these demonstrators, although insists that no force will be used against these people. It was a different scenario back in 2010 when at least 90 people were killed during street protests that lasted two months, shutting down parts of Bangkok. Well, so far these demonstrations have been peaceful. No acts of violence have been reported, and that is something that prime minister Yingluck Shinawatra desperately wants to avoid.
