As the People’s Movement for a Just Society ( P – Move ) outside parliament enters its second week, police have outlawed all public gatherings within 50 meters of Government House until Wednesday.
No meetings may be permitted near Government House to avoid disrupting the cabinet meeting on Tuesday, according to an announcement made by Pol Lt. Gen. Thiti Saengsawang, commissioner of the Metropolitan Police Bureau, on Saturday.
Officers will block access to Ratchadamnoen Nok Avenue, which runs from Makawan Rangsan Bridge to the Misakawan intersection, as well as Phitsanulok Road between the House and Phanichayakarn Road, according to a source with the Bangkok Metropolitan Administration( BMA ).
The action is being taken as P – Move’s protest, which started on October 2, shows no signs of slowing down. The party has set up camp outside Government House to require that the Pheu Thai-led administration honor the commitments it made to the group in February.
The team’s nine requirements, which include giving rural populations more say in the management of local sources, fair and equal treatment for marginalized communities in property issues, and universal basic income, were taken into consideration by the state, according to the party.
The party moved their dissent from the UN’s Thailand business to the doors of Government House on October 4.
The Minister of Agriculture, Captain Thammanat Prompow, has been given the task of negotiating with P – Move, according to Deputy Prime Minister and Commerce Minister Phumtham Wechayachai. This year, the agriculture minister did record to the government, he said.
