Bangkok: Labor networks held a rally in front of the Ministry of Energy to demonstrate their power in stopping high energy prices, and submitted a letter to the Minister and the government outlining seven demands. The Thai Labor Solidarity Federation, the State Enterprise Workers' Federation, and the Thai Social Democratic Party, along with over 100 union representatives from various organizations, held a rally and submitted a letter to the Minister of Energy and the government, holding signs and giving speeches.

According to Thai News Agency, Mr. Sawit Kaewwan, President of the Thai Labor Solidarity Federation, revealed that they intend to submit seven proposals to the government: 1. Reduce refining margins to 2 baht per liter and set a diesel price limit of 30 baht per liter. 2. Stop the privatization of state enterprises and proceed to return PTT and refinery operations to state ownership. 3. The government must disclose domestic refining production data. 4. The government must investigate and prosecute refineries, individuals, and legal entities that hoard oil. 5. Request the Prime Minister to use special powers to manage energy in emergency situations. 6. The government must control the prices of consumer goods. 7. The government must stop purchasing expensive electricity from private companies.

The protest leaders, who took turns giving speeches, also cited old government data stating that if there were no crude oil imports, Thailand would have enough oil for 106 days. However, they pointed out that after about a month, an energy crisis has already occurred, with refining costs exceeding 7 baht per liter, despite almost all refineries being owned by PTT. Furthermore, the protest leaders asked the government if selling old oil stockpiles had allowed energy companies to profit more than 10 baht per liter, resulting in profits of up to 300 billion baht in the past.

All labor unions will subsequently submit a letter to the Prime Minister at Government House.
