BANGKOK (Reuters): Thai Prime Minister Prayut Chan-o-cha said on Wednesday (Oct 21) he was preparing to lift emergency measures in Bangkok, which were imposed to stop protests, and that disputes should be settled through Parliament.

The emergency measures, imposed last Thursday, had prompted further demonstrations by tens of thousands of people.
