Thousands demand Thai prime minister quit over border dispute
Thousands of protesters rallied in the Thai capital Bangkok on Saturday, June 28, to demand the resignation of Prime Minister Paetongtarn Shinawatra, piling pressure on a government at risk of collapse over a border dispute with neighboring Cambodia. In the largest such rally since the ruling Pheu Thai party came to power in 2023, crowds braved forecasts of potentially heavy monsoon rain to demonstrate against Paetongtarn, 38, who is also battling to revive a faltering economy and keep a fragile coalition together ahead of a potential no confidence vote next month. The demonstration was organized by the United Force of the Land, a coalition of largely nationalist activists who have rallied against other Shinawatra-backed governments over the last two decades.
