Protests against the government and the monarchy have been
held in the Thai capital Bangkok today. Protesters are demanding greater
accountability from the monarchy after it emerged the king had transferred the
crown assets to himself, increasing his wealth enormously. Under pressure, the
government has responded by invoking the country’s strict lese majeste laws and
charging at least 12 protest leaders with defaming the monarchy. A lot of the
anger is directed against the current king Maha Vajiralongkorn who spends most
of his time in Germany. His long stays have become a headache for Berlin with
the government being questioned by the opposition on whether he actually
conducts state business from here. The government has said this would be
unacceptable.
