Thai Court Dissolves Move Forward Party, Winner of 151 MPs, Over Royal Law Amendment
Aug 7, 2024, 08:05 AM
Thailand's Constitutional Court has ordered the dissolution of the Move Forward Party, the nation's largest opposition party, which had won 151 MPs in the 2023 elections. The court's decision was based on the party's campaign to amend a royal defamation law that protects the monarchy from criticism. This ruling has sparked concerns about potential political turmoil in Thailand, as the Move Forward Party was a significant force in the country's progressive political movement. The dissolution marks the ninth time a prominent party has been disbanded since 2007. The former leader of the party, Pita Limjaroenrat, urged supporters not to lose hope despite the court's decision. The verdict was read at 15:00.
