Siam Rath reported from the grounds in front of the famous chedi in Nakhon Pathom, central Thailand yesterday.

The bullies in this case are people with weapons after there was an increase in gun crime in the area.

 

The media reported that several incidents in the area had scared the public and that the force in Region 7 were acting on orders from Thai PM Prayuth Chan-ocha.

 

The PM acted after the massacre in north eastern Thailand last week.

I only see one set of people with weapons ..................................LOL

So for a "crackdown" they have a carnival parade?

First they should crack down on gun crime in Krungthepmahamakorn and lock up the criminal masquerading as the Prime Minister 555.
