Thai Protesters to Focus on Airports

OK... I just starting to get a bit anxious! We leave for Vietnam in less than a month, and then onward to Bangkok.
However, anti-government protesters still seem to be in control of the main Suvarnabhumi international airport, with PAD supporters(People's Alliance for Democracy) blocking the highway leading to the facility and setting up numerous checkpoints using razor wire, abandoned cars and baseball bats. Police are seemingly unwilling or unable to move in.
So at first I thought .... hey its thirty days from now, but then I read that the takeover of a main government building started in AUGUST ! and its still going on....
Suddenly, thirty days doesn't seems to be such a long time.
