snoop1130 Posted June 14, 2023 Share Posted June 14, 2023 The commander of the 4th Army Region has expressed concern over young people in Southern Thailand potentially being manipulated for political purposes. His remarks follow a recent incident in which the so-called Pelajar Bangsa “national student movement” hosted a special forum titled “Determining Our Own Future.” During the event, voting cards were printed to facilitate a public vote on a potential separation from Thailand, an action considered legal by event organizers. However, the 4th Army Region firmly noted that such a vote would be against the law and a threat to national unity and stability. Lt Gen Santi Sakuntanark, Commander of the 4th Army Region, criticized the activity, indicating that it is disrespectful, insulting, and a potential legal violation that poses a risk to the stability of the state. He also pointed out that such a vote to separate from Thailand contravenes Article 1 of the Constitution, which states that “Thailand is one indivisible kingdom.” By Adam Judd Full Story: https://thepattayanews.com/2023/06/14/thai-army-concerned-about-students-organizing-secession-vote-in-south-thailand/ -- © Copyright The Pattaya News 2023-06-14 - Cigna offers a range of visa-compliant plans that meet the minimum requirement of medical treatment, including COVID-19, up to THB 3m.
