Thai residents can be jailed for 15 years for insulting the country’s monarch.

Takorn Tantasith, head of Thailand’s National Broadcasting and Telecommunications Commission, said: “If even a single illicit page remains, we will immediately discuss what legal steps to take against Facebook Thailand.”

Internet chiefs in the country are reported by the Bangkok Post to have emailed Facebook chief Mark Zuckerberg personally asking him to remove the clip.

And despite attempts to block Thais viewing the video, more than 300 versions are believed to be floating around social media.
