More than a thousand Thai pro-democracy protesters rally in the capital Bangkok Friday, with more expected to join. Thailand has for months been rocked by youth-led protests demanding a new constitution, reform of the untouchable monarchy, and for Prime Minister Prayut Chan-O-Cha to resign. IMAGES
Pro-democracy protesters gather in Bangkok at the headquarters of Siam Commercial Bank -- in which Thai king Maha Vajiralongkorn is a major shareholder. The location of the protest was changed from the Crown Property Bureau HQ to avoid possible clashes with a rival ultra royalist rally. Soon after coming to power following his father's death in 2016, the new king took control of the Crown Property Bureau which has assets in banks, companies and prime real estate. IMAGES
Thai pro-democracy protesters gather at the Sam Yan intersection of Bangkok for a march to the German embassy to denounce the long period of time king rama X spends in Germany. IMAGES
Thousands protesters march in Bangkok at Democracy Monument during a pro-democracy rally, with tensions rising in Thailand after the arrest of 21 pro-reform activists a day earlier. IMAGES
Thousands of pro-democracy protesters gather in Central district Hong Kong for a rally themed "2020 Karma to Commies Universal Siege on Communists". Hong Kong's protests were sparked by a now abandoned plan to allow criminal extradition to the mainland, where the opaque court system is beholden to the communist party. It has since morphed into a wider anti-government movement. IMAGES
