Later yesterday afternoon, four people from the network slipped through the defence line and walked together on Phahon Yothin Road. Sangsiri Teemanka, coordinator of the People Go Network, said the group's intention was not to mobilise a mob or cause civic unrest. However, Chulalongkorn University political scientist Chaiyan Chaiyaporn said now is not the time for large political protests to return to Thai streets. Although more protests are likely to come gradually, he said, their ferociousness is likely to be proportional to how the authorities respond to them. National Human Rights commissioner Angkhana Neelapaijit said she did not see the walk as a political protest but just a social activity.
