"The government will take drastic legal and other measures to prevent red-shirt demonstrators from setting up a new protest site on Silom Road, another major Bangkok business district. Colonel Sansern Kaewkamnerd, spokesman of the Centre for the Resolution of the Emergency Situation, said no protesters would be allowed to move from their current site at the Rajprasong intersection to Silom Road."If they moved, they would run into checkpoints and road blockades manned by security forces," he said.

He added that the current illegal occupation of the Rajprasong intersection - Bangkok's major shopping and tourist district - had already caused severe damage to businesses and the general public, hence authorities would not tolerate more trouble-making.A protest leader said yesterday that a new protest site would be in front of Bangkok Bank's Silom branch.

At a meeting of Army, Navy and Air Force commanders-in-chief yesterday evening, chaired by Army chief General Anupong Paochinda, it was agreed that emergency laws would be enforced strictly through security checkpoints in Bangkok and the provinces to deal with the protesters' offensive.

Besides Anupong, supreme commander General Songkitti Chakkabat, Navy chief Admiral Kamthorn Pumhiran and Air Force chief ACM Itthiporn Suppawong were also present."
