Kiev: Protests continue in Kiev against sitting government and protestors spent Saturday night in City Hall they occupied on Friday. Situation of Ukraine is becoming similar to Thailand where protestors occupied government buildings and sitting government got vote of confidence from parliament as it happened in Ukraine. Situation in Thailand and Ukraine indicates that democracy is sometime does not express the will of people in many countries because governments sustain through parliament but people keep protest against such governments.
