Mid-August rally set to demand PM Paetongtarn’s resignation - Jatuporn
16 Sept 17:49Key points summarised by AI
The Ruam Palang Paendin protest group, led by Jatuporn Prompan, plans a mid-August rally to demand the resignation of Prime Minister Paetongtarn Shinawatra and the withdrawal of coalition parties from the Pheu Thai-led government.
This protest comes as PM Paetongtarn is suspended from duties by the Constitutional Court, though she retains the prime ministerial post pending a final ruling.
Jatuporn criticizes the Pheu Thai party for its perceived hypocrisy, collaborating with parties founded by coup makers despite its anti-coup stance.
He also lambasts the opposition People’s party for being 'half-hearted,' citing its reluctance to pursue significant land encroachment and golf course cases, and its failure to support a no-confidence debate against the PM.
