BANGKOK - A new movement has sprung from the fading embers of Thailand's pro-democracy protests. On Tuesday (April 6), a coalition of political and civic groups called Re-Solution launched a campaign to collect one million signatures to amend Thailand's Constitution.
"One name from everyone. Uproot the Prayut regime," went the slogan espoused by the candy-coloured mascot, in reference to Prime Minister Prayut Chan-o-cha.
