Steer clear of royals, PM warnsPrime Minister Prayut Chan-o-cha has warned political protesters not to disrespect the monarchy during their rally on Wednesday, which also coincides with a royal merit-making ceremony. If they [protesters] do not disrespect the monarchy or slander anyone, no problem," he said. Can we allow what they have proposed, that they hate and disrespect the monarchy? Mr Arnon, however, affirmed that protesters will not obstruct the royal motorcade as it heads to Wat Phra Sri Rattana Satsadaram (Wat Phra Kaeo). Pol Gen Damrongsak Kittipraphat, deputy national police chief, said police would try negotiating with the protesters first to try and ensure maximum security for the royal motorcade.
