The army has deployed soldiers at various spots, particularly at government offices, out of concern for the safety of the People's Democratic Reform Committee's protesters and to ensure law and order, army spokesman Winthai Suwari said.
Col Winthai said army units have also been deployed to take care of the people and alert them to possible danger, and to prevent the authorities from doing any harm to them.
Asked about the Election Commission proposal that the caretaker prime minister to issue a royal decree to postpone the election, the army spokesman said the military will not interfere in the political process. It will leave it to those in the political sector to find a way out.
