BANGKOK CLASHES ON THE FRONT PAGES

Monday's newspapers were playing catch-up after the weekend clashes in Thailand which saw 21 people dead and more than 800 injured.
From China and Australia to the United Kingdom and the United States, words and pictures portraying Saturday's events on the streets of Bangkok were featuring prominently on front pages around the world.
The big question now for Thailand is what happens next? But perhaps equally important is how much damage has been done to the Kingdom, especially to the all-important tourism sector. The impact will certainly be as bad as the Songkran clashes of last year and could even be on a par with the airport closures of late 2008.
No one knows and only time will tell.
