Who appoints these so called judges?

The Military as a result of the 2006 coup, wrote up the present constitution,

-made the senate half appointed,

-it also passed a law that it was illegal to discuss the draft constitution in public,

-The military also threatened prior to the vote on the constitution, that if it was not approved they would not step down and hand the government over to civilian control.

- It is also widely understood Source that the military forced other party members to vote for Abhisit for PM.

Published in the New York times!

"Wide circulation of photographs of heavily armed men among the protesters, the protest movement increasingly resembles an armed insurrection against the government of Prime Minister Yingluck Shinawatra"

Sardin Lertbutr, a protest leader, said wednesday on Thai Television that "very professional" men with weapons were assisting the protesters and "making the police retreat"

The court however "found that the protesters were being carried out peacefully without weapons"

"On Tuesday, protesters attacked the police with a grenade, an action protest leaders initially denied but acknowledged when footage of the detonation circulated on the internet"

Mr Verapat Pariyawong, a Harvard trained lawyer and a prominent commentator stated the court ruling allowed protesters to claim "pseudo legitimacy to overthrow the government"

Chalerm is not the only one seeking clarification of the ruling!

Cheers

Good points.

But you realy think that the Source www.nytimes.com is the ultimate source of wisdom?

They do also media policy for their clientele.

I've had several Thais tell me that this fake monk will probably be reborn as a dog or other animal due to the damage he has done to Thai Buddhism and Thailand.

Its only a matter of time before karma catches up to him.

Please do not slap your dog.

Are the red dots on the tongue of your dog contagious?

Anyway.

When I grow up, my parents teach me not to lie, and to take responsibillity, now this are rare values, everywhere. And in the land of smile there is a culture of not responsibillity, if anything went wrong, the others or a ghost have responsibillity.

Everybody know shes guilty, she is the chairwoman of the rice-scam, it was her job to supervise, greed and stupidness is not innocent if you not a baby...But I dont trust the NACC, they have done nearly nothing in the past, and I dont believe that they get hard facts for a arrest warrant, because I know, that the Shin-clan are professionals in criminal corruption, and its very difficult to prove...

Agree with you.

But it is not so difficult to prove criminal corruption, if you have the resources and the rights to review.

Bank transfers and money flows leave traces and how big the rice mountain really is, they could check this too.

The NACC mainly gets its informations from insiders.

They need more an independent tax police.

If they would check the asset/income ratio from top to down, from all involved people in the rice scheme,

then they are able to reclaim billions of taxpayers money.

RT @RichardBarrow: 11:30am This is what is heading to #Bangkok; 100’s of farmers & their tractors. Now in Ang Thong (Pic @CrDNnews) http://t.co/gulQbf5Soy

This guys tweets more recently said they are heading to Swampy, not Bangkok?

Richard Barrow ‏@RichardBarrow 46m

[bangkok Post] Thai farmers are expected to head to Suvarnabhumi airport to hold a rally against the government. They are in Ang Thong now.

Guess the farmers will check then some heavy suitcases, if some taksin family members or friends try to fly out.

Maybe the currently best solution for the country.
Any bets?

"Peace for Bangkok" was R.I.P in Bangkok.
A tragic day for peace and unit.

Gemini81 , Just curious, do you have a link to what you are referring to, I am not aware of it & would watch what ever you are referring to.

(Or is anyone else has the link, post away)

The world LAUGHS at what a FOOL she is! (see cnn interview...a disaster no retard could manage!!!!) have a look

won't happen again.

Suthep's protesters came in peace and with no weapons.

Of curse since the whole stop movement is faltering and about to disentagrate, violent clashes are the only last desperate option left to try and provoke some response - as in army C

Chalerm is doing the right thing now. He should be focused on daily raids of protest sites and then retreat to avoid violence.

It will upset the protestors daily schedule, they will become scared and tired having to rebuild their sites everyday after raids.

Snatch and grab a few hundred protestors every day, arrested and off to prison.

It will cost the protest funders more money, as they have to keep replacing equipment, paying legal fees of the arrested etc..

It will set precedent that the police have tried numerous times to clear the protestors but been met with deadly force by armed PDRC thugs. Ultimately later then much greater levels of force can be used with clear evidence that attempts to use non-violent means has been tried many many times prior.

Keep on attempting to clear every day, make them tired, make them weary, make they spend money, observe their tactics, put snipers into place in future to take out anyone with guns or grenades....... just keep on hitting them with clearing attempts every day - its the only less violent way to clear them out.

That is your opinion.

I like more to side with Albert Einstein

"Peace cannot be kept by force; it can only be achieved by understanding."

And these are a small minority.

I think the majority has no interest to shoot on their own countrymen,

be it a police officer doing his duty, nor a peacefull protester.

So I must speak agains your opinion, that Charlem does the right thing.

And if the scheme is not corrupt then she has nothing to worry about. Though I don't hold much faith in that going by the body language below

Or this

1. Nattawut on Protests

2. Nattawut on Democracy

3. Nattawut on Rice Policy

And Nuttawat also carried out the "big" inspections of some 2500 rice storage facilities...(in 3 days or something stupid) and discovered that everything was in order .....no irregularities except for some very minor issues.....

Another useless piece of garbage!

He is also active in the transport sector.

Nattawut Transport company carrys rice bags across the country back and forth.

And before Tharit, Chalerm and their supporters here say that the police wasn't armed.

I would expect Tharit and Chalerm to lie, so that is no surprise. I'm wondering though, why try and hide the fact they are armed?

Tragic as this day went. RIP

Who is responsible and ordered this policemen with assault rifles into the rows of riot police?

For what purpose?

To shoot at people?

Otherwise there is no other function for that type of armament

What ridiculous questions. Thailand has an armed police force so of course the police were armed. They have every right to be armed when confronting murderous thugs shooting at them and throwing grenades.

You are sure, today it was not the other way around?

Police opened fire first?

Tomorrow the court will decide about the state of emergency.

Why today this violent hurry?

If the government had waited another day, perhaps the live of people on both sides could have been saved.

"As part of its reform proposal for the next government, the TDRI suggested establishment of an independent committee to oversee spending policy to increase transparency and make sure tax money is actually being used for the benefit of society, and especially for the people who truly need it."

Agree!

How about less talk and more action. Every time you open your mouth you making a fool of yourself. Just do it.

Is there dissent in the red corner? are we losing patience with our party leaders. Careful Tarrit will freeze your bank account!

Maybe not a dissent.

The police and especially the Metropolitan Police is not particularly popular in Bangkok.

You can ask for example every food cart vendor how much bribes they must pay to sell there stuff.

It is hard for them. To scroll through the Khao San Road, there are 300-400baht due.

Also ask the taxi divers, motorcycle taxi drivers and the motorcycle transport drivers, what the think about the police.

And this people are mostly from isaan.

Can I suggest you re read my comment in relation to that of red snake, and maybe you might get it! A hint; maybe considered humour, if you knew the stance the snake takes in red v yellow!

Just give the farmers back their rice.

Problem solved.

No, that's the problem. The rice has either gone missing or has now rotted. And, even if the rice could be returned, the farmers would be entitled to "cover" damages from the government under the Thai Civil Code. That's the difference between the government's promised price on the vouchers and the actual price the farmers are now able to sell the rice on the market, plus the additional expense of sale (eg, transport).

Yes right, maybe Nattawut transport company can dish out some free transports.

This rice scheme is so rotten with all the corruption to the core.

If they confiscate the assets of all those who have enriched themselves illegally, they would have enough to pay the farmers.
