PAD-led protest to seize Royal Plaza area by 7pm

Somsak Kosaisuk said that by 7pm the Royal Plaza area near the Parliament will be occupied by the protesters. They will march to the Parliament on Monday morning to block the government's MPs from propose charter amendments which paved ways for ex-PM Thaksin Shinwatra from returning home.

He vowed that this is the last fight of the protesters who will not return home if they did not win.

Somsak also suggested the protesters to prepare clothes in case police fired tear gas to disperse them like during the protest on October 7.

Meanwhile Gen Pathompong Kesornsuk, former advisor of the Thai army told the crowds that on Monday the protesters should strictly follow recommendations of the PAD leaders.

"If we follow the orders of the leaders strictly, we will win over the government for sure," he told the cheering crowds.

Meanwhile another PAD's leader Pipob Thongchai asked the protesters to observe a minute of silence in condolence for a PAD guard, Anupong Samerpak, who was killed in the latest attack on Saturday.
