The approximately 600 strong crowd criticized Mr. Abhisit for attempting to establish a new national administration. They also directed their criticisms towards the People’s Alliance for Democracy which remains stationed at the Government House. The DAAD said that the PAD rally at the Government House is undemocratic as the site is a government structure.
Police are closely monitoring the situation at the parliament and are detering the atmosphere from escalating into violence.
