Thamanat: He s not with us
Palang Pracharath Party (PPRP) has stepped away from an ex-member who filed a complaint to police against about 20 influencers for criticising the government on its handling of Covid-19.
The party has faced heavy criticism that it is stifling Thais right to freedom of expression and siding with the wrong side. The government has come under widespread criticism, not just from celebrities.
Deputy Agriculture Minister and PPRP secretary-general Thamanat Prompow admitted the complainant, Sonthiya Sawatdee, was a former member of the party but said he has nothing to do with the party now. The difference of opinion does not damage the country. People, including stars, have the right to criticise and that will be a mirror for the government to improve its performance, he said.
