A Thai opposition People’s Party MP who chanted demands “for peace and humanity” during a visit by Myanmar junta chief Min Aung Hlaing to the Thai Parliament was removed from the venue by parliamentary security.

The incident occurred 7 August as Senate Speaker Mongkol Surasajja was preparing to welcome Min Aung Hlaing as a special guest at the Thai Parliament, part of his broader two-day state visit to Thailand that began 6 August.

Bangkok MP Anusorn Thamjai arrived at the reception area before the ceremony began, intending to submit a letter addressed to Min Aung Hlaing through the Senate Speaker. The letter reportedly urged action on resolving cross-border issues, providing humanitarian assistance, and rebuilding democracy in Myanmar.

Around 10:50 AM, as Min Aung Hlaing’s delegation arrived, Anusorn repeatedly chanted, “For peace, for humanity,” prompting security personnel to intervene and parliamentary police to escort him from the premises.
