Anti-Prayut protesters march to Govt House as police build barricadeAnti-government protesters march from Victory Monument to Government House on Wednesday. (Bangkok Post photos)Anti-government protesters are moving towards Government House after gathering at Victory Monument while riot police have built a barbed wire barricade on Sri Ayutthaya Road outside the Foreign Ministry to block them from reaching the prime minister's office. Scores of royalists confronted the anti-government protesters and skirmishes broke out before the students escaped the campus. Protesters started converging on the Bangkok landmark after organisers used social media to name it the principal protest venue on Wednesday. The student-led protesters and people loyal to the monarchy have tried to avoid direct confrontations, and rallies have remained peaceful so far.
