Bangkok Gears Up for Protest Against PM’s Cambodia Policy

Rally Set for Victory Monument

Leaders Announce June 28 Protest

Prominent protest leaders, including Jatuporn Prompan, unveiled plans on June 22, 2025, to stage a major demonstration in Bangkok on June 28, targeting Prime Minister Paetongtarn Shinawatra’s handling of the Thai-Cambodian border dispute. The rally, set for Victory Monument, aims to pressure the government amid public outrage over a leaked phone call with Cambodian Senate President Hun Sen, as announced at a press conference.

Defending Thailand’s Sovereignty

Symbolic Venue Chosen

Jatuporn emphasized that the protest seeks to safeguard Thailand’s sovereignty, sparked by Paetongtarn’s controversial remarks in a June 15, 2025, call that appeared to undermine the Thai military. Victory Monument, a historic site commemorating Thailand’s 1941 territorial victory, was chosen for its symbolic weight, drawing supporters to rally against perceived threats to national interests.

Protest Details Unveiled

Performances and Speeches Planned

The demonstration, scheduled from 4 PM to 9 PM, will feature a stage at Victory Monument with singers performing in the afternoon, followed by protest leaders’ speeches starting at 4 PM. The event, expected to draw thousands, will disrupt traffic at the busy intersection of Phaya Thai, Ratchawithi, Phahon Yothin, and Asok-Din Daeng roads, a key Bangkok hub since 1942.

Minimizing Public Disruption

Police Coordination Underway

Protest leader Nititorn Lamlua announced plans to meet with the Metropolitan Police Bureau on June 23, 2025, to discuss logistics and reduce impacts on commuters. Kaewsan Atibhodi apologized for potential inconveniences, stressing the rally’s necessity to address national concerns. The group aims to balance public access with their goal of highlighting the government’s diplomatic missteps.

Leaked Call Fuels Anger

Paetongtarn’s Leadership Questioned

The leaked call, in which Paetongtarn discussed border negotiations and criticized military actions, has intensified scrutiny of her leadership, already weakened by the Bhumjaithai Party’s coalition exit. Critics, including Parnthep Pourpongpan, argue that undisclosed details shared with Hun Sen could compromise Thailand’s position in the ongoing dispute over areas like Chong Bok, fueling demands for her resignation.

Broader Political Implications

Nationalist Sentiments Surge

The rally reflects growing nationalist fervor, with similar protests planned in Phitsanulok and Phuket following the May 28, 2025, border clash that killed a Cambodian soldier. Thailand’s rejection of International Court of Justice involvement, contrasted with Cambodia’s push for arbitration, has deepened the crisis. The protest could further destabilize Paetongtarn’s fragile coalition, risking economic impacts amid a 23% SET Index drop in 2025.

Path to Resolution Uncertain

Dialogue or Escalation Ahead

As Bangkok prepares for the June 28 demonstration, analysts warn of potential economic and political fallout, with border closures already costing $5 billion in trade. The protest leaders’ call for accountability underscores public distrust in Paetongtarn’s government. With police coordination in progress, the rally’s outcome could shape Thailand’s diplomatic stance and Paetongtarn’s political future, amid calls for unity and transparency.
