    The latest lese majeste arrest I am aware of is Ms. Papatchanan Chingin, or “Daeng,” in Korat on 8 April 2009. she led a group of Red Shirts to Lady Mo pavilion and burned a coffin in effigy with words written on it..”His Majesty…General Prem…The PAD…Government of Crooks…born…died 8 April 2009.” According to local reports, her efforts were supported by public transportation baron Jae Kiew Cherdchai, but this has not yet been confirmed.
    Chingin is the same person who formerly filed fraudulent lese majeste charges against me.

Please note: New Mandala encourages vigorous debate. However, for the moment we will only be publishing high-quality comments that make original contributions to discussion. There will, of course, still be space for pithy, humorous, eccentric and cheeky input. Short and sweet will usually trump long and involved. Repetitive ranting, unimaginative point-scoring and idle abuse will not be entertained. Comments which carry a real name are also more likely to be approved. Thank you for your ongoing interest and contributions.
