Yingluck started selling rice outside Bangkok’s Fashion Island shopping mall with other leading figures from the Pheu Thai Party, with 5-kilogram bags going for Bt100 each.
Each person could buy up to two bags only. Yingluck wrote on her Facebook page that she might sell more rice and ask her followers to wait for an update from the page.
A lot of people queued up to buy the rice from Yingluck, which helped her sell the bags very quickly.
When the former PM arrived at the mall, many supporters surrounded her and took photos with her.
