Thailand: Activists plan demonstration at Government House in Bangkok from 09:30 Sept. 17
Activists plan anti-government protest at Government House in Bangkok, Thailand, from 09:30 Sept. 17. Increased security likely.
Several activist organizations plan to gather at Government House in Bangkok from 09:30 Sept. 17 to protest the current administration led by Prime Minister Paetongtarn Shinawatra. Over 100 participants could join the demonstration.
Police will likely maintain a heightened security presence around Government House. Although violence is unlikely, isolated scuffles are possible. Localized transport disruptions may occur, particularly if activists march along or occupy nearby streets such as Chamai Maruchet Bridge.
Avoid the protest site as a precaution. Plan for possible transport disruptions and allow additional travel time. Heed all local security advice.
