Protesters Led by 'Kamnan Mano' Enter Fifth Day of Demonstration Near Government House
The People's Revolution for Land Protection group continues its protest near Government House, demanding a 10-baht reduction in diesel prices.
On November 12, 2026, the People's Revolution for Land Protection (NPP) group entered its fifth day of demonstrations near the Chamai Maruchet Bridge, adjacent to Government House in Bangkok. Led by Mano Kruakaew, known as 'Kamnan Mano,' the protesters are calling on the government to address public grievances, specifically demanding a 10-baht per liter reduction in diesel fuel prices.
For residents and travelers in Bangkok, the ongoing protest may cause localized traffic disruptions near the Government House area. Organizers have scheduled evening rallies featuring various speakers and plan to host experts over the coming weekend to discuss the technical justifications for their fuel price demands.
Regarding internal concerns, Kamnan Mano addressed allegations surrounding donation funds, dismissing them as minor issues. He stated that he intends to present a detailed financial report on income and expenditures during the evening session. He also noted that an accountant from Krabi province is expected to arrive to assist in formalizing the group's financial records.
While the group remains firm in its demands, the government's official response to the protest remains unclear. Kamnan Mano indicated that he has not been closely monitoring government statements but expressed confidence that the Prime Minister is aware of the factors contributing to high fuel costs in Thailand. Further developments depend on whether the government engages with the protesters or if the group decides to escalate their activities.
