BANGKOK - The Chinese embassy in Bangkok has condemned Thai politicians for showing support for Hong Kong activists involved in anti-government protests, saying it could harm the relationship between the two countries.
The embassy criticism, in a statement on its official Facebook page late on Thursday, came days after Hong Kong pro-democracy activist Joshua Wong posted a picture on social media with prominent Thai opposition politician Thanathorn Juangroongruangkit. Hong Kong has seen months of protests led by young activists against the city’s Beijing-backed government amid fears Beijing is gradually eroding freedoms promised when the city returned to China from British rule in 1997.Wong and Thanathorn met on Oct. 5 at the Open Future Festival in Hong Kong, attending as speakers at the annual event.
Thai army chief General Apirat Kongsompong indirectly criticized Thanathorn’s meeting with Wong on Friday during a press briefing in which he accused opposition politicians of inappropriate behavior.

Support for Hong Kong goes far and wide. Long may HK keep the freedom of speech, free press and freedom to protest.
Look at those rioters did
In practice you are wrong if you think differently, it's a pretty communist concept.
JanetTeddy111 they think they can win over the world, keeping everyone's mouth shut, but the reality is it only calls for more opposition
...turnabout being fair play...
He's already grovelled and apologised...
China will only get busier with all this global censorship because conscience and common sense are on Hong Kong's side.
Well, CCP trending play with its dick in the near future, perhaps North Korea Kin
China is heavily invested in Thailand's economy, so Thai politicians don't have much room, or freedom, to denounce China's oppressive actions. By the end of this century, China will dominate all of East Asia, especially Thailand.
These guys have The Balls.. Salute
The ruling party in China, the Chinese Communist Party, has *THE* thinnest skin. They cry big ol’ alligator tears about anyone who criticizes them.

Soon China will say “oh we also have a historic claim on Thailand or something. You must now call them the Chinese Province of Thailand or lose money”
Yeah? Well the world denounces China for it’s treatments of Hong Kong.
Hey China, stop interfering in Thailand's affair.
China relies on cultural difference every time. Time to stop that bullshite
I wish there are more politicians like him in that area. Most are too scared to speak up
realDonaldTrump is the only one standing up to China. The only one. And he’s hitting them only way they understand- monetarily.
its not surprising the Chinazis would do that stopfascism HongKongProtests
This politician have to make his move outside parliament. Fame is what he need this time.
Yes why do you support these activists.
Lol
It is time that China realise that it does not control the world and its persecution of its critics is not acceptable. If world domination and/or conformity by the world to the way China wants the world to be, is what China seeks, the world must resist
China denounces the Whole, nobody does nothing. That's what money looks Ike
