Kajsiu: Organized crime finances the prime minister's towers, not the protest against them

Organized crime is very happy with Rama's development model of elite towers and resorts, because that is where they launder money. Therefore, citizen protests against this model pose a real threat to the strongmen, drug traffickers, and organized crime that launder money and legalize the stolen lands in Rama's elite resort projects.
