A video of some officials allegedly visiting the parents of the kindergartner who raised the anti-government three-finger salute has generated criticism from Thai netizens.

 

The incident was recorded by a security camera and posted on Facebook on Friday (August 21) with a message saying “the authorities are looking for Om Yim [the girl] for raising three fingers. Is that the reason why they came to threaten us?”.

 

On social media, people are debating the appropriateness of the action but the contents of the discussions between the officials and the parents were not known.

 

The girl was identified as a kindergarten student in Yasothon province. After she reportedly made the three-finger salute, other children followed her, expressing their support for her.

What are they going to do? send them to the attitude adjustment camp just like their Chinese masters are doing with Uighurs

The people who support Prayuth and the golden family are thinking about making camps right now. Thai people don't know what their rights are and have never known freedom. Talking about some things in Thailand is like talking about the devil. Actually, they aren't wrong about that will the abuses, jailings and murders those in the Thai Devil's cult have perpetrated over the decades up to today.

It's okay to brainwash and indoctrinate kids at daycare centers and kindergartens to wai and prostrate to the golden gods who walk among men but not to false gods. I bet that little girl has a nice yellow shirt, blue bandana and a blue hat she can put on to show her intelligence.

I just hope there was no swat team with body armor and a military attack vehicle sent to the scene of the crime...

 

Nip it! Nip it in the bud...while still in kindergarten...

They are truly scared! They should probably ask how much a kindergartener and her friends really know regarding the meaning of the salute.

was she just trying to give someone the middle finger as well.

Are you insinuating that would be the proper salute to the sitting regime?

Since she is a kindergartener and they are not yet self thinkers, they the regime presume this anti stuff is coming from her parents and they are going to force the parents into submission. They know if not stopped this leads to the young Thai kids opposing them at an early adolescent age and they can't afford that.. Don't all kindergarteners have mobile phones now and quite possible to see it on line? 

 

This might possible be another powerful force in the oppositions crusade against the regime and all they stand for.

the scouts are going to be in trouble.

My wife said yesterday that Prawit had apparently said he couldn't see the problem as it was a scout salute. It make her laugh anyway.

 

My mind you there's a phrase about sharp knives in drawers (not draws) and one of them not being the sharpest.

I can't remember the last time Thailand received any positive coverage overseas. Can anyone?

Wasn't it when some foreigners rescued a kids football team trapped in a cave?

Yes. After the kid's leader had put them in danger.
