Protesters gather in Bangkok to demand Thai prime minister's resignation over leaked Cambodia call
- On Saturday, thousands gathered near Bangkok's Victory Monument to protest and call for Prime Minister Paetongtarn Shinawatra to step down, following public outrage over a secretly recorded conversation with Cambodia’s ex-Prime Minister Hun Sen.
- A phone conversation on June 15 saw Paetongtarn advising Hun Sen to disregard her political rivals, an incident that ignited public anger following a border skirmish on May 28 that resulted in the death of a Cambodian soldier.
- The protest featured speakers, national flags, signs, and familiar faces known as Yellow Shirts who express loyalty to the Thai monarchy amid intensified border tensions.
- Paetongtarn stated she had nothing to gain from the phone call, did not harm the country, is not worried, and is ready to provide evidence to support her case.
- The scandal fractured Paetongtarn’s fragile coalition, causing the Pheu Thai Party to lose its largest partner, while investigations by the anti-corruption commission could lead to her removal.
