Thaksin worried about royal insult

“Thaksin sees the problem caused by the other side using the lese majeste clause as the political tool against its opponents,” Philaphan Phalusuk said.
Philaphan said Thaksin did not view the provision on royal insult as problematic. He hinted at Thaksin’s stand in contrast to the call by the Nitirat academic group to amend the law.
He was speaking upon his return from Dubai, where he paid a visit to the former PM.
He also said Thaksin has, in principle, supported the formation of the Constitution Drafting Assembly to take charge of the charter change although the coalition has yet to finalise the details of the CDA.
