Deputy PM Suthep: Airing classified document puts Thailand at disadvantage

BANGKOK, Dec 23 (TNA) – Publicising the leaked classified document of the Thai Foreign Ministry on Thai-Cambodian relations puts Thailand at a disadvantage, said Deputy Prime Minister Suthep Thaugsuban.
Leaked from the foreign ministry, the document was published on the website of convicted former prime minister Thaksin Shinawatra.
Jatuporn Prompan, a member of the opposition Puea Thai party who is also a leader of the Red- Shirt anti-government United Front for Democracy Against Dictatorship (UDD), charged that the document contained information about a plot, he alleged, to harm Mr Thaksin.
The deputy prime minister said he would have legal experts review the case to determine if legal action can be taken against those who publicized the document, which is related to Thailand’s national interest and security.
