The Thai anti-government protestors on Monday afternoon dispersed peacefully from a rally site outside the 11th Infantry Regiment in Bangkok, where the peace-keeping operations command is established.

At about 1.50 p.m., local time, thousands of the United front for Democracy against Dictatorship (UDD) protestors started returning to their main rally site at the Pan Fah Bridge, where is located on Ratchadamnoen Road in the center of Bangkok.

The UDD or red-shirted protestors started their march for the Peace-keeping Operations Command from 9.00 a.m., local time, and reached there by 12.00 p.m., local time.

Earlier in the morning, Thailand's Prime Minister Abhisit Vejjajiva said in a live TV address that there will not be a House dissolution by noon as the anti-government movement red-shirts demanded on Sunday.

The red-shirted demonstrators' dispersal took place after Prime Minister Abhisit rejected their demand.
