Red-shirts gather at 11th Infantry Regt.
About 3,500 red shirts led by Veera Musikhapong paused for speeches in front of the 11th Infantry Regiment barracks on Phahon Yothin road shortly after leaving their rendezvous point at the Lak Si democracy monument about 2pm on Friday.
From a stage on the back of a truck, Mr Veera, the main speaker, called for democracy-loving people to join the Sunday rally to oust the government. Eight fire trucks and one company of soldiers were on hand to maintain law and order. There was no trouble.
The protesters then moved to the Kasetsat intersection. Their next planned stops were the Ratchayothin intersection, Lat Phrao intersection and the BTS skytrain station at Mor Chit.
They were to return to Lak Si late Friday afternoon before calling it a day. The protesters said they would regroup on Saturday morning to march to the main rally site at Ratchadamnoen avenue.
Prime Minister Abhisit Vejjajiva arrived at the peace-keeping operation centre inside the 11th Infantry Regiment's compound shortly before the red-shirts did.
