Protest March Planned for Ministry of Energy on November 16
A protest group led by 'Kamnan Mano' is scheduled to march from Government House to the Ministry of Energy on November 16, raising concerns about potential traffic disruptions.
According to a report by Thai Post, Nasser Yeema, a leader of the Network of Students and People for Reform of Thailand (NSPRT), has analyzed the planned protest march scheduled for November 16. The demonstration, led by the figure known as 'Kamnan Mano,' is set to depart from Government House at 9:00 AM, heading toward the Ministry of Energy.
Nasser identified two potential routes for the march, either via Ratchaprarop-Din Daeng or the Victory Monument-Phahonyothin path, covering a distance of approximately 11 to 12.5 kilometers. He expressed concern regarding the organizers' lack of experience in managing large-scale processions through the heart of Bangkok, noting that the march could significantly impact traffic flow and cause inconvenience to the general public.
To mitigate these risks, Nasser advised the organizers to coordinate with local police in advance, deploy security personnel to manage the procession lines, and ensure that lanes remain open for emergency vehicles. For residents and travelers in Bangkok, it is advisable to monitor local traffic reports and plan for potential delays if traveling near these routes on the morning of November 16. It remains to be confirmed whether the organizers will follow these recommendations or if the protest will proceed as planned without official coordination.
