Supachai Jaisamut, a Bhumjaithai list MP and party registrar, has petitioned the House committee on public health to launch a probe against a state-run hospital director, accusing the head medico of misconduct and insulting his superior.
Dr Supat Hasuwanakit, director of Chana District Hospital in Songkhla who is also the administrator of the Facebook page of the Rural Doctor Society (RDS), is the target of the petition.
Mr Supachai's petition came after the doctor posted an opinion on Facebook criticising the latest reshuffle of executives at the Ministry of Public Health which he said lacked good governance. Dr Supat also allegedly accused the ministry of pursuing a "deviant" cannabis policy.
