Prime Minister Yingluck Shinawatra Tuesday called on Thais to help protect the monarchy and avoid abusing the institution for political advantage.
“We should help protect the monarchy and should not abuse the institution for own benefit,” she said, adding that the government would focus on campaigning for good understanding among different elements in society.
When asked if her government supports the campaign to seek amendment to Article 112 of the Penal Code about lese majeste, the prime minister replied: “We are not doing this now. We should focus on solving economic problems.”
