The country’s political atmosphere smouldered inside and outside parliament, with the heated censure debate and the student rallies nationwide showing discontent over Thailand’s political situation.

On Saturday, a students’ flash mob was held at Kasetsart University, which also brought together other people after similar gatherings were previously organised in several universities and schools, after the Future Forward Party was dissolved on Feb 21.
