Kom Chad Luek Newspaper Thailand is a mass-circulation Thai-language daily newspaper launched in 2001 and published in Bangkok, Thailand by the Nation Multimedia Group. Its circulation is in the 500,000-600,000 range.
Kom Chad Luek became the target of mass protests after it printed an article on March 24, 2006 that omitted part of a quote by anti-government protest leader Sondhi Limthongkul, with the misquote suggesting Sondhi wanted King Bhumibol Adulyadej to abdicate, which was viewed as an insult to the king, or lese majesty, which is a crime in Thailand.
The paper published a front-page apology on March 30, begging forgiveness from the king.
