Democrat Party deputy secretary-general Thepthai Senpong yesterday called for the Information and Communication Technoloy Ministry to take a proactive role in supervising websites with contents deemed politically harmful and divisive.

The voluntary shutdown of the Hi-Thaksin website was a goodwill gesture by the webmaster and not the prodding by the ministry, Thepthai said.

He said harmful contents might reappear in other websites, such as prachathai.com and urged the ministry to step up its monitoring.
