PM urges demonstrators to obey the law

Prime Minister Prayut Chan-o-cha urged protesters to obey the law yesterday, saying the police are capable of defending themselves if they are attacked by anti-government protesters.

He made the comments following a rally by the Thalu Gas group that spread to various areas of the capital over the weekend, with some protesters ending up escalating their protest around Din Daeng intersection.

Gen Prayut said he wasn't concerned by the protests, as long the organisers apply for the appropriate permission and obey the law, before asking the youth protesters to think of their future, as rioting charges will appear on their criminal records.
