Thailand's Toxic Politics: A Deadly Legacy of Betrayal A shooting incident at a government office in Nonthaburi, on the outskirts of Bangkok, has left many wondering if Thailand's toxic politics have finally reached a boiling point.
The alleged perpetrator, 71 year old Chalong Reawraeng, a former lawmaker with a history of party hopping and backstabbing, opened fire on Thongchai Yenprasert, a senior provincial official, and his driver.
This incident comes just days after a teenager's deadly shooting rampage at a school in the same province.
