Oh, great, my country is in the news again. Oh, wait, it's bad news, again. Here's some better news: the students have blocked all the universities and other people are joining the protests in hopes of overthrowing the authoritarian regime. The corruption has reached peak levels and is actually killing people. The government is doing it's best to stay in power, but no real, mass violence has been applied just yet. People have given up on elections because they are demonstrably fixed and can't change anything. I don't know how this will end.
