Miss Universe Thailand calls red shirts ‘dirty’

The winner of Miss Universe Thailand has offended a number of people by referring to the pro-government red shirts as ‘’dirty’’ and writing ‘’they should all be executed’’ on her Facebook page.

Weluree “Fai” Ditsayabut, 22, was crowned Miss Universe Thailand on Saturday night in a popular beauty pageant broadcast live on the state-owned Channel 3 and pro-government followers quickly found the offensive comments on her wall.

In one comment from November, Ms Weluree accused red shirts of being “anti-monarchy” dissidents, and suggested that Thailand will be cleaner once the “dirty” red shirts leave the country.

“I am not neutral. I am on the side of His Majesty the King,” Ms Weluree wrote. “I’m so angry at these evil activists. They should all be executed.”

Some red shirts questioned whether Ms. Weluree is suitable to represent Thailand, according to Khaosod
