Factors that could be seen as posing political risk for the Yingluck Shinawatra government are rising, an opinion survey has found.
The Abac Poll of Assumption University revealed that the conflict between the government and independent organisations had a risk index of 6.51 out of 10, and was the highest risk index facing the government.
Noppadol Kannikarn, director of the Abac Poll, said 43.8 per cent of respondents said they saw political risks for the government were rising, while 39.4 said the risk level remained unchanged, and 16.8 per cent said the risks appeared to be receding.
The Political Risk index survey was carried out among 2,168 respondents from provinces including Bangkok, Sukhothai, Chiang Mia, Khon Kaen, Surin, Phuket and Supan Buri from May 10 to 25.
