FILE - In this June 13, 2014 file photo, Thailand's Army commander Gen. Prayuth Chan-ocha, left, arrives at the Royal Thai Army Club in Bangkok, Thailand.

Critics said the order to censor all forms of media was expansive and contradicted the message the coup leader, Gen. Prayuth, has attempted to send to the Thai people.
