Whilst they're at it, a recognizable national curriculum would be nice too!

The World Bank seems to think Thailand will experience a max of 2% growth - still, what do they know, huh Somkid?
-
I feel embarrassed for the good people of Thailand.

Ve hef ways of making poor defenseless people do what we want....

Education is the last thing they'll ever bother with. Not enough money, quickly enough, at stake.

Darwin candidate gets reprieve...

If these people knew how to control opposing crowds without killing them, it would eliminate their excuse. Incompetence resulting in a convenient lockdown. They say they are for protecting people and their rights? Well learn how to control a crowd, instead of banning it, even if one or two idiots carry guns.

I was gonna say they're going to shut Bangkok down for maintenance but the chance would be a fine thing.
-
Isn't it nice being governed by all these good, educated people?
Let's remind ourselves why these generals were so warmly welcomed by some when they took power. The legitimate government's ills which they purported to be ridding us of at the time were:
- large scale corruption
- lack of accountability
- clamping down on the press
- railroading the constitution
- threat of violence towards opponents
hmm....the more things change, the more they stay the same. Or in this case, get worse. Oh yeah, there were all those undefined 'reforms' too. I'm sure we're all loving the emperor's new clothes.

I thought this travel ban was enforced at the discretion of the NCPO, not the courts. It seems that once again they are trying furiously to gain/maintain a veneer of legitimacy in their actions by getting the supreme court to do their dirty work.
-
Going to a park is a very serious offence, on a par with fb comments, 30 years (death sentence) at least, what do these people think this country is, the land of the free?
Yeah, and God help them if they took sandwiches with them for lunch.
-
They're just stalling until the important event happens. Coming up with whatever they can to justified continued control. I predict ever more tenuous, unproven and ludicrous 'plots' and 'conspiracies' until that event occurs.

"Good morning, bribery hotline. Which department would you like to bribe, please?"
-
"Prime Minister General Prayut Chan-o-cha handed yellow shirts to ministers at the meeting"
At last. Secure in his dominance, the big guy finally shows his hand unashamedly in a way he wouldn't have dared a year or so ago. I wonder if this would make Suthep smile?
-
I wonder if at any point she opened a bottle of Chang...
-
I wonder how many would turn their backs on beer if they knew every purchase was propping up the 'educate people' who run the country and keep the military in their pockets to do what is necessary when push comes to shove in the main arena....
Tough choice - personal joy tonight versus political future of Thailand. Should we give it one more day?
-
1st stage, 2nd stage, 10th stage. Who gives a $hit. These people have taken over by force and the ostensible support of a higher office and they will now not let go. Who'd have thought it - 'greng jai' and 'mai pben rai' have worked for those who have courted them.
-
No trial, no proper examination of evidence but everyone thinks they know who did it. At the moment the BiB and TVF investigators could easily switch positions and be as effective as each other.
-
At last some sanity. We will now see if the Thai FA prefers keeping their sugar daddy in control or playing in international events.

I have made the connection between 2010 & 2014 many times on here in the various forums: only to be shoted down, ridiculed, insulted or spoken to in a most arrogant manner. Pleased to see that the RTP are now making this connection public. Perhaps I wasn't so stupid after all?
Ianf, with respect I say to you, your credibility is not going to be restored on this forum by believing the RTP have got it right.
What credibility? I speak as I see and if folk don't like it - stuff 'em!
Oh well, I'm stuffed.

It's not really surprising no-one would employ him considering his record. Rape, assault and drug charges.
This is a sad story. The guy was 18 years old when he was sentenced to 9 years. If Thailand had a modern prison regime (i.e. professional anger management, drug addiction treatment, vocational training, resocialization) he might would have got his life under control and become happy und useful for society. Seems like he was really devasted instead, so the convictions 2006 now seems more like a death-sentence. Well, at least he didn't rape anyone and didn t harm someone else. RIP
Thai prison sentences are purely about punishment and revenge. They have nothing to do with correction or rehabilitation.

This woman should only receive a physical examination if it is in the interests of reconciliation.

The next election will not occur before the important event happens. However long that takes. Although democracy ultimately cannot be denied to the people, it appears to be alarmingly easy to delay.

Evidently the current political situation is just too simple for this author to convey in plain language. Those hours must just fly by at The Nation's offices.

Yep, pretty much like that. So why don't you dislike the military usurpers as much as the Shins? Red guards scratched your car? Or insulted a loved one?
