If the man had any shame, he would have resigned from the Privy Council long ago and been prosecuted for a crime. Just another example of people who claim to be support the monarchy, but whose real interest is to use it for their own selfish interests.

It would be hard to imagine these developments being allowed to happen even 10 years ago. The idea that a former chief of the army, coup prime minister and privy council member would be publicly forced into vacating his home as an illegal encroacher is a sign that things are changing in Thailand, no matter how hard the old powers try to hold onto power.
