Security in front of the Embassy of Cambodia in Bangkok has been tightened on Tuesday after members of the People's Assembly of Thailand led by Chaiwat Sinsuwong announced they would protest there to oppose Cambodian Prime Minister Hun Sen, who said last week he welcomed ousted premier Thaksin Shinawatra to Cambodia.
A company of police have been deployed to guard around the embassy. Iron barriers have also been placed around the entrance.
Mr Chaiwat said in a radio interview in the morning that he would led protesters to gather in front of the Embassy of Cambodia to read a statement condemning Hun Sen and Puea Thai Party chairman Chavalit Yongchaiyudh, who went to meet Hun Sen last week in Phnom Penh.
