Thai education, immigration and labour officials inspected an international school in Bangkok’s Pridi Banomyong area after it allegedly operated without a licence and employed six foreign teachers without work permits.

Thanathorn Juangroongruangkit, leader of the Progressive Movement, revealed that he had bought the house in France where Thailand’s late former prime minister Pridi Banomyong lived for 13 years with the aim of raising awareness of Thai political history.
