The Thai Patriotic Front has filed a petition seeking the Royal appointment of a new prime minister, citing what it described as failures by the current government on such issues as amnesty legislation, the rice-pledging policy and the Bt2-trillion infras
Chaiwat Sinsuwong, leader of the anti-government Thai Patriotic Front, and about 1,000 demonstrators gathered in front of the Grand Palace to submit a petition to the Royal Household Bureau seeking the Royal appointment of a new prime minister.
While five representatives of the group submitted the petition, the protesters waited outside and shouted, “Yingluck get out! The Shinawatras get out!” Their chants drew the attention of tourists.
