Many groups of protesters gathered at the Government House on Tuesday, with several of them occupying Rajdamnoen Road and causing traffic congestion.
The first group, comprising some 1,000 protesters from the National Municipal League of Thailand and Subdistrict Administration Organisation Association of Thailand arrived at 8.30am and gathered near the Government House on Rajdamnoen Road.
They wanted to submit a petition to the premier, demanding that the government help raise their salaries to the level of government officials with bachelor degrees.
They said they should be paid Bt15,000, the same as those with bachelor degrees, and Bt9,000 for those with education levels below bachelor degree.
