PPT earlier posted on Defence Minister Prawit Wongsuwan’s order to put all military units, their associated families and commanders on lese majeste watch. That order got a little international coverage on the wire services. Now the Telegraph in England has picked it up (28 September 2009: “Thai army to enforce royal censorship laws”), with links to broader censorship issues, the monarchy and previous stories on, for example, Ji Ungpakorn.
