Thailand’s national police chief has defended the police officers stationed outside Pheu Thai headquarters during violent protests on Monday, August 7. According to a Nation Thailand report, Damrongsak Kittiprapas spoke out yesterday, following criticism from several figures, including Anutin Charnvirakul, leader of the Bhumjaithai Party.

 

Bhumjaithai has just entered into coalition with Pheu Thai and both parties were holding a press conference at the latter’s headquarters when skirmishes broke out. Members of the Thalu Wang protest group had rallied outside the building to protest against Pheu Thai’s abandoning of the Move Forward Party.

 

The activists blocked a Bhumjaithai convey attempting to leave Pheu Thai headquarters, with Pipat Ratchakitprakarn, deputy leader of Bhumjaithai getting out of his vehicle to confront a female protester. Nation Thailand reports that the pair got into a brief verbal dispute, in which the woman swore at him and the minister appeared to be trying to control his anger.

MFP is going to rule as a majority of the upcomming actual generations who are the future of Thailand, are fed up with the previous patriarchal in power. 

 

Hopefully MFP will use common sense in visa and immigration issues and change all the current bureaucracy hassles. Not to mention other steps taken to efficiently fight pollution related issues in major districts.

It's not over yet...

Even if PTP & Co get the required votes, the people will not let them forget their betrayal.
