Pheu Thai want to give the man a fish ( the one time payment of 10,000 baht to every adult Thai ). Move Forward want to teach the man how to fish. A fundamental difference. Another sign of the conservative and questionable nature of PT is shown in one of their choices for House Speaker, namely Suchart Tangcharern. This man has changed parties several times and faced allegations of corruption as far back as 1996. https://www.upi.com/Archives/1996/05/08/Thai-government-faces-corruption-charges/1202831528000/

Pichit is not in Issan. It's lower north or upper central Thailand. Get it right for Thailand's sake, Thaiger

Jim, the article is about Thaksin's daughter visiting him. What should we write about, the colour of the sand in Dubai, who's taking care of her baby whilst she's away? Keep your eyes on the road and your hands upon the wheel.

' The old get old And the young get younger, May take a week, It may take longer' The story of MF, Jim, in relation to the other parties 'Thaksin thinks, Pheu Thai does' an old slogan the party used. I expect Thaksin's daughter has gone to ask Daddy, the party's owner, what to do next. As for obsession, it was you Jim who frequently posted with joy and abandon that Thaksin was coming home in July.

'Thaksin thinks, Pheu Thai does' is the slogan Thaksin, the owner, once chose for his party.. So his daughter has to find out what the owner plans to do next.

Putin rejects Belgorod's governor' request for weapons to protect the province. Is he afraid they may be used against his regime?

She once recorded a show in London for one of the TV channels, at the end the whole crew: cameramen, sound engineers stood up and gave her a standing ovation. Someone remarked how rare that was as the crew were used to working with the best in rock

The south of Thailand, Pra-Nang cave, is a popular place for women wishing to become pregnant.

Jim, you're so naive. Of course they deny, didn't Prayuth deny he'd ever hold a coup? Look at it this way, the establishment hate Pita and MF. Pheu Thai are smarting from MF beating them. Thaksin controls PT and is desperate to come in from the desert. The sand gets in your eyes after a while. Now, if MF form a government as proposed, there will be no amnesty for him, no quick deal. Now who could ease his way back? Pravit with his connections to senators, etc. Anuthin too, has connections going way back. But it would be foolish of these parties to make a move until/unless Pita is banned. Yesterday someone asked the proposed government to sign a future MOU where they would go into opposition together if Pita is banned.. The idea was shot down PT are just waiting for Pita to be banned to propose Settha as PM. The question is how loud will the scream of the butterfly ( MF) be if Pita is banned?

When Thaksin's parties were banned, the establishment only had to worry about red shirts being bussed in from the north-east and north. They had to be paid, fed and find a park to camp at. Quite a logistic exercise. But MF are prominent in urban areas, in Bangkok they hold 32 out of 33 seats. They could protest, paralyse Bangkok easily if Pita is banned.

The old guard are desperate but they know they can rely on Pheua Thai to help them out. Thaksin will do anything to come home. There are no permanent enemies in Pheua Thai, a party that welcomes back traitors who joined the junta government.!

Great rock n roll xtr. Can't beat that fast beat and those rock n roll guitar chords. The Doors, unique and timeless.

I believe the elite prefer a neutered and chastened Thaksin and his traditional dynastic family politics to MF's genuine passion for reform. If Pita is disqualified over the redundant media shares inherited after his father's death, then Pheua Thai can claim the PM's post. Bring in Bhumjaithai , Pravit's party and the senators who "listen' to him and PT have the premiership, They'll need Prayuth's party and the Democrats too, then Bob's your uncle, or rather Thaksin is. I hope I'm wrong but anyone who thinks Thaksin will put the desires and aspirations of the Thai people before his own interests is seriously deluded. I remember back in the early 90s when he was allegedly said to have given an expensive Bentley to one of the coup makers of 1991 in exchange for a monopoly concession .

I was a teacher of high school students in Bangkok for years and yes, the young are certainly not constrained by the establishment. Their frustration and contempt for the status quo was made evident to me time and again. But it's a different matter for those over 50. Many still believe in the traditional values. If it came to an uprising I believe they will stick with the status quo, as will every political party except MF.

Rumours that Pravit will dissolve his party, enabling its members to join Pheu Thai, and hence become the majority party, are denied by PT

His past caught up with him. He supported Suthep's Shut Down Bangkok campaign and he voted for Prayuth to be PM.
