pagallim Posted July 12, 2023 Share Posted July 12, 2023 Perhaps/probably wrong, but the Bangkok Post is perceived as the most read of all the Thai based foreign language news sources. Given what is happening today, it's not beyond the realm of possibility that the BP is being deliberately taken off air to minimise international condemnation of what is flagrant abuse by those in actual power here and any potential suppression of unrest. I'm sure that it won't be long before Reuters etc get this out there. Thai social media is already alight with the news. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
