Several thousands of nationalist "yellow-shirt" supporters on Tuesday morning protested against the parliamentary endorsement on documents about the Thai-Cambodian boundary demarcation.

The "yellow-shirt" People's Alliance for Democracy (PAD) supporters, led by PAD core leader Sondhi Limthongkul, occupied the road in front of the parliament to sway vote on the framework documents to negotiate with Cambodia on the demarcation line between the two countries' joint border.

In a speech to the crowds, Sondhi said the secretary of Foreign Minister Kasit Piromya told him that there will be no vote on the documents on that day. The "yellow-shirts", however, will occupy the venue until the parliamentary meeting end to make sure of no parliamentary endorsement.
