A group of Thai students at the Oxford University in the United Kingdom has turned down an invitation to have lunch with Deputy Prime Minister Phongthep Thepkanjana, reasoning that he and the government supported and passed the Amnesty Bill that violated and contravened the constitution.
The students sent a letter to Phongthep on Sunday which was signed by Duangnapa Kovanich and Thaya Uthayaphas on behalf of the Thai students who opposed the Amnesty Bill. They were invited by the Office of Educational Affairs (UK) to have lunch with Phongthep on Saturday.
