Some years ago I read an article about the monarchy there fighting against laws that prohibit criticism, the king himself said it shouldn't be applied anymore. But it seems the monarchy is generally so well loved on one side and government is using the law to silence critics on the other. So that changing the laws is pretty difficult. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/L%C3%A8se-majest%C3%A9_in_Thailand https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/L%C3%A8se-majest%C3%A9_in_Thai...
