Pattaya reds need more than just a 'stay cool' warning | Bangkok Post: opinion

Thanks to Matichon Online, I had the privilege of watching a three-minute video clip which showed a group of some 20 Pattaya red-shirt followers, riding on motorcycles, chasing a black sedan in which actress Bongkoj Khongmalia, alias Tak Bongkoj, was travelling with a small film crew.

Her chauffeured sedan was followed by Pattaya red shirts on motorcycles who shouted abuse at her and displayed protest placards. The car was briefly stopped when one of the motorcycles cut in front of it, but it sped off shortly afterward without any further incident. 

Clearly, the Pattaya red-shirts were upset because she bad-mouthed Ampon Tangnoppakul, alias Ah Kong or Uncle SMS, on her Facebook page after the old man’s death from liver cancer last Tuesday at Bangkok Prison Hospital. In her Facebook comments, the actress wrote that Ah Kong’s death would make the country better and that he would definitely be in hell.
