The campaign by a group called Mor Mai Thon , or Doctors Won t Tolerate This, to drive public health minister Anutin Charnvirakul out of office is gaining momentum and it s one that the government should take seriously.
The need to heed public opinion is especially vital for Mr Anutin, whose performance during the Covid-19 crisis has been called into question.
The petition on Change.org was launched last Sunday. It received more than 100,000 signatures in support in a single day. As of yesterday, more than 200,000 people had signed it.
Finding himself under pressure, Mr Anutin at first tried to downplay the matter.
