Another wave of anti-government protests has hit the streets of Bangkok, with demonstrators marching near police headquarters in the Thai capital on February 23, 2021, to protest against police corruption. Demonstrators turned out after a lawmaker revealed evidence of a list called Tua Chang, meaning “Elephant Ticket” in English, which allegedly included names of police officers earmarked to be fast-tracked through the ranks because of special favours or connections.
