About 4,000 yellow-shirts protestors on Saturday have managed to break the blockage by police and continued marching toward an area near the Thai-Combodian border, a move that raised concern of leading to more complication between the two countries, Thai media reported.
According to Bangkok Post online, at about 2 p.m. the yellow-shirted supporters of the People's Alliance for Democracy (PAD) passed through police blockage at Phumisarol village, about 3 kilometers away from the entrance gate of Preah Vihear national park near the disputed Thai-Combodian border.
They had clashed with the local villagers, leaving several people injured, said the report.
Prime Minister Abhisit Vejjajiva has directed his deputy in charge of security affairs, Suthep Thaugsuban, to reinforce soldiers and police at the national park to prevent PAD protesters to trespass the disputed area.
