President Gotabaya left Singapore in July
Rajapaksa, who has been living in Singapore after leaving the country amid anti-government protests in Sri Lanka in July, was seeking asylum in Thailand as his Singapore visa was running out. He reached Maldives on July 13 and then went to Singapore where he announced his resignation amid protests over the country’s economic crisis. The Bangkok Post newspaper quoted Prayut as saying that he had sought asylum on the basis of humanity, on which we have said that this is a temporary stay. No (political) activity is allowed and this will help them in searching a country for asylum. Foreign Minister D Pramudvinai had said that former President Rajapaksa could stay in Thailand for 90 days as he still holds a diplomatic passport.
