Political activists to demonstrate at Parliament Complex in Bangkok, Thailand, from 13:00 Sept. 12. Increased security likely.
Political activists led by the United Front of Thammasat and Demonstration are planning to stage a protest at the Parliament Complex (Sappaya-Sapasathan) in Bangkok from 13:00 Sept. 12. The purpose of the action is to express several demands following the new Prime Minister Paetongtarn Shinawatra policy speech in Parliament in the morning. Dozens of people will likely join the rally.
Police will likely deploy additional personnel to monitor the protest. Although violence is unlikely, isolated scuffles are possible. Localized transport disruptions may occur, particularly if activists march on or occupy nearby streets.
Avoid the protest site as a precaution. Plan for possible transport disruptions and allow additional travel time. Heed all local security advice.
