Spartakos

The plot thickens. Political machinations seem to be evolving on both sides to be "put up or shut up." With Ms Shinawatra having the upper hand at the moment. Unless a third candidate steps forward, which seems unlikely, Suthep looks ripe for defeat, and Yingluck remains the PM.

What newsfeeds are you following??

She is charged and will be found guilty

Her legal term as care taker PM is out in few days

She and her family lost billions

How exactly does she remain on top ??

Maybe I should have said re-elected, but no matter. I am commenting, quite neutrally I might, on the election process. Ms Shinawatra threw a haymaker, and Suthep backed down. Whether or not you or I like it is not the point. Also, charged and being found guilty, or innocent are completely different.

I thought that the Chinese stated a few weeks ago they would not be buying Thai Rice, Is this just another stalling tactic.?Thailand needs to start selling its rice stockpiles before they become , either rotten or contaminated with fumigants.

Yes ... if it's real, I wonder what the Chinese are getting besides rice ?

Same kind of confidence they expressed promising to pay farmers by the week's end?

I am sure that tarit is falling over himself in a rush to push treason charges against this idiots.

And Chalerm is just falling over.

The senators want PM to take care of the situation? Do they realise they are talking about yingluck? Best she can do is order to set up a committee and hope everyone forget about the problem. Yingluck for Nobel prize in incompetence!

Would that be a committee she wouldn't actually attend personally ?

She doesn't do committees.

Cling to power until the last minute, no matter what. Well I never had any doubt about it.

I am a optimist. I can see a evolution Thailand. Gone are the days of the ruling elites in bangkok.

They try very hard but cannot win because the people specially in the north dont want to be servants anymore.

First step was thaksin. Not really perfect but somehow necessary.

Next step is r e a l democracy without the old and new family/clans who hold the power. More common

people and grassroots movements.

Please people, dont be so frustated and negative about everything.

This situation is a big chance from power for a few people to power for the mayority. Specially for the

people in the north. Does anyone know if its possible to move the capital from Bangkok to a big city in the north under Thai law?

Have a good day

Tom

Or do you not consider Dr.T an elite?

Square face brand becomes bad for your business, even in politics they don't wear his name with the pride they used to, have not seen him smiling at me as much from election billboards either. Businesses are going out of their way to assure you that they have no connection to him.

Sounds like a 5 or 6 year old boy was killed.

Anyone that pushes blame onto parents for the death of a son will be reported by me. I hope every poster that reads this does the same. Have some respect for the dead. You are only showing your true colors when you do what you do.

It is not the parents fault. It is the terrorists fault.

Shame.

I don't think anyone is blaming the parents for the deaths directly, but children should not be anywhere near danger, and in case you haven't realized, these places have become very dangerous lately. Go ahead, report this post if you want. But in case my point wasn't clear enough already ill say it again - childrens safely should be put above politics. that means getting those children out of the danger zones immediately.

This happened out the front of a Big C.

You complain about the protesters blocking Bangkok and now you want children locked up in the safety of their homes?

If the Government and CMPO were fulfilling their duties (legally) and managing these protests the chances of these attacks occurring would be minimal!

The Government is failing to protect their own citizens.

I hope you will stop calling Charlem a liar now, the man have promised more attacks on protesters by "unknown" terrorists and he have delivered. A man of his word, a strong role model for PTP supporters along with Dr.T.

Let's take a guess how long will it take the police to catch the culprits.

It is funny how all the banks/businesses now going out of their way to assure people that they have no dealings with shins. I wonder if the majority of thais still love Dr.T & co why do they feel the need to do that?

No excuse for refusing a costumer based on the colour of his shirt, if what reds said is true(should be easy to determin from CCTV) off with the employees heads.

That's cute. It's the same as SC Hotel denying Luang Pu Buddha entry to the hotel even though he already made a booking eh?

I know exactly what went on here and I wasn't there

First of all lets establish that banks have rules and they are bound by the rules both concerning money deposits and the running of the branches themselves.

These rules apply to everyone including redshirts

The redshirt customers entered to bank with a wad of cash and demanded to open an account, they were asked where the money came from and to provide evidence at which point they became abusive to staff, remember rules and laws don't apply to redshirts or so they think, believing they shouldn't have to provide any evidence "YOU KNOW WHO WE ARE - WE ARE REDSHIRTS" the whole thing went apeshit

I'll lay money on it the above is pretty close to what happened

Nah, it's just some "concerned citizens" who were firing at red shirts, no connection to protesters. But seriously who do we ask to protect the population from the idiocy of PTP?

They are Sethups men dressed as farmers Cunning plan but it wont work

here is the real leader

Good luck Yingluck

Have anyone else noticed a trend of denouncing any relationship with Dr.T, it started after the failed amnesty bill, did not see his face smiling at us from the election posters of PTP as much either , now it's bad to be in business with shins. Soon dealing with him would be more damage than profit. Thaksin brand is loosing popularity with Thai people.

I suspect the average grade school student in the US has a far stronger grasp of the democratic process that the author (and many of our TV posters who seem to be stuck in an echo chamber with the same three or four memes going around and around).

That is the very people PTP claims to represent, that is one messed up situation for them. At least yingluck is a strong leader and will see the situation through I have no doubt about it.
