The demonstrators, known as "People who want an election", hope to pressure the government into holding a general election by November this year. Gen Wanlop said security officers are assessing the situation, adding that he personally believes the demonstration will not spiral out of control. So far, the protesters have not yet written to inform police about their demonstration on May 22, he added.
