The provincial authority and military have claimed they have been able to eliminate colour-coded conflict in Chiang Mai — the base of the red-shirt United Front for Democracy against Dictatorship (UDD).
Despite the upbeat message from the province's leader, a former red-shirt leader was wounded in a gun attack in San Kamphaeng district on Saturday night, in what police suggest stems from an internal spat with another red shirt group.
