Thanathorn: Come out with one bottle each. No need for oil because we will fill in for free. [This mimics a famous Red Shirt slogan that encouraged people to bring bottles to protest so that they could be made into Molotov cocktails.]
On the sign: Don’t receive 5,000 baht assisting fund [meaning these are people who were not able to collect the pandemic stipend from the government and are thus angry]
Caption: The second fund raising of Kao Nao Party
[This refers to former Future Forward Party’s executives led by Thanathorn and Piyabutr using the fallout of government’s management of handling the COVID-19 crisis to call on people to protest and oust the government. This cartoon, from a very pro-establishment newspaper, ridicules this by comparing it to the Red Shirts when they called on similar actions in 2009/2010.
The cartoon mocks the name of the new successor party to the disbanded Future Forward Party from “Kao Na” to “Kao Nao” (meaning something like “move to be rotten.”]
