Thai opposition demonstrators plan to hold a 20,000-car protest in the country's capital of Bangkok on Saturday, Thai media reported.

The members of the United Front for Democracy against Dictatorship (UDD), the so-called Red Shirts, plan to create a caravan of over 20,000 vehicles on Bangkok's streets as a part of their strategy intended to force the government to dissolve parliament and call for new elections.

The Thailand News Agency (TNA) said the Red Shirts claimed the caravan could be the world's longest anti-government caravan of automobiles with an estimated length of 80 km.

The UDD members hope the caravan protest will promote an understanding of the ideology and goals of the protestors holding the demonstration for democracy and offered their apology to the Bangkok residents facing inconveniencies from the demonstration. Its route has yet been reported.

Yesterday, Thai Prime Minister Abhisit Vejjajiva said he was ready to negotiate with the protesters on condition they refrain from insulting verbal attacks.

On Tuesday, Thai opposition protestors painted the streets in front of the gates of the Thai prime minister's office with blood taken voluntarily from 100,000 protestors.

The current Prime Minister, British-born Abhisit Vejjajiva, who took office after the resignation of Prime Minister Samak Sundaravej, who was ousted after mass protests in November, 2008, that shut down Bangkok's airport.

Bangkok was hit by mass protests by the opposition demanding the resignation of Vejjajiva, the dissolution of parliament and the holding of new elections.

A series of protests in Thailand started in March 2009 after the government offered 9 million low-paid Thai workers assistance worth $55 per head to stimulate the economy. Protestors called the aid "bribery," accused the Cabinet of coming to power illegally and demanded that Vejjajiva step down.
