The angry protest prompted Mr Thanathorn to cancel the meeting. Protest leaders, however, insisted they did not plan to attack Mr Thanathorn, had they met him. The Wednesday commotion caused Mr Thanathorn to cancel his plan to visit Surat Thani yesterday for fear of similar confrontations. Worse, the Progressive Movement has complained that the chaos in Nakhon Si Thammarat was not the first time that group members had been intimidated. As of press time yesterday, Nakhon Si Thammarat police were not certain whether the yellow-shirt mob would be prosecuted.
