Protesters Gather at Government House Demanding Fuel Price Relief
About 120 protesters from the People's Revolutionary Front gathered near Bangkok's Government House on November 8, awaiting a convoy from the south led by Krabi village headman Kamnan Mano. They plan to submit a petition to the prime minister demanding action on high fuel prices, the rising cost of living, and economic hardship. The group marched from Nakhon Si Thammarat starting November 5 and vowed to stay until their demands are heard.
Around 120 demonstrators from the People's Revolutionary Front have assembled near the Prince of Chumphon Shrine in Bangkok, awaiting a convoy led by Kamnan Mano Kueakaew from Krabi. The group plans to march to Government House and submit a petition urging Prime Minister Paetongtarn Shinawatra to address soaring fuel prices, the high cost of living, and broader economic hardship. The protesters began their journey from Nakhon Si Thammarat on November 5 and have been camping at the site, singing patriotic songs and waving Thai flags while they wait for the main contingent to arrive later this evening. Organizers say they will remain in the area to press their demands, which also include action on other issues affecting people's daily livelihood.
