From the Washington Post article on today's military coup attempt in Thailand:

"The armed forces commander and the national police commander have successfully taken over Bangkok and the surrounding area in order to maintain peace and order. There has been no struggle," a Thai military announcement said, according to the Associated Press. "We ask for the cooperation of the public and ask your pardon for the inconvenience."

I guess they're getting the hang of this sort of thing, as this is the 18th coup or coup attempt in Thailand since 1932.
