BANGKOK (Bloomberg): Thai pro-democracy protesters plan to hold a fresh rally this weekend and petition King Maha Vajiralongkorn, a day after rejecting a Parliament-initiated plan to form a committee to ease the political tensions.

The activists will gather at Bangkok's Democracy Monument on Sunday (Nov 8) before handing over a letter in support of their demands to the King, Free Youth, one of the protest groups said in a statement on Thursday (Nov 4).
