BANGKOK, Nov. 27 (Xinhua) -- The Thai government will take some more time prior to making a decision if the Internal Security Act (ISA) should be lifted, Prime Minister Abhisit Vejjajiva said Friday.

    On Tuesday, the weekly cabinet meeting agreed to enforce the ISA law in capital Bangkok from Nov. 28 to Dec. 14 to maintain security during a series of the mass-anti-government rallies.

    But, the United Front for Democracy against Democracy (UDD) announced that the UDD group has postponed their mass-anti-government rallies indefinitely.

    The government will monitor the situation for a while before making the decision on the ISA law, Thai News Agency quoted Abhisit as saying.

    Earlier, the UDD group or the red-shirted people planned to stage the mass-anti-government rallies from Nov. 28 to Dec. 2 in capital Bangkok.

    In a related development, Chart Thai Pattana Party spokesman Watchara Kannikar, said his party has thanked the red-shirted people who decided to postpone their anti-government rallies.

    However, as the party has understood that the ISA law is essential to maintain security, the government should quickly consider to cancel the plan to impose it since it has affected foreign tourists, Watchara said.

    The Chart Thai Pattana Party, which is one among the coalition-government parties, is in charge of the tourism industry's matter.

    Speaking Wednesday the UDD group said it will discuss again in mid-December about a new schedule of the anti-government rally.

    The latest movement of the group occurred after ousted former Thai premier Thaksin Shinawatra Tuesday urged the UDD core leaders to defer it since it is not an appropriate time.

    The rally purpose is to bring down the coalition government.
