The fact that opposition MPs will not raise their hands will not cause the House to reject the proposed budget,” he said.
Sensible strategy. The opposition MPs will be viewed negatively by the people if they vote against the budget in this bad economic times.
Rather they should debate vigorously on the budget and attack the yearly increase of the defense budget and large allocation for the interior ministry which merely is to exert control on the freedom of the people and especially the oppositions.
The opposition MPs wisely take no part in the budget voting and allow the budget to be the sole responsible of Prayut and his executive branch. As the debate will be televised live, the public can hear and see that the opposition MPs debate the unpopular budget allocations.

Out of curiosity, is it a standard practice for the post office to ask for identification in form of passport whenever you send EMS or registered mail domestic and international. I get asked all the times and thought I check if this is normal practice.

Erdogan also reiterated the necessity of the safe zone to eliminate the threats from the Syrian Kurdish YPG militia, which Ankara considers a terrorist organisation, and to create the conditions necessary for the return of Syrian refugees, it said.
There wouldn't be much of the Kurd YPG after Trump agreed to withdraw US troops and allow Ankara to launch their military campaign; something Ankara is itching to do for years. Trump sold out the Kurds. Probably timely diversion from his impeachment woes.

Rick Wilson is spot on when he authored the book "Everything Trump touches dies".

He got 5 years head start and done nothing even with the mother of all law article 44 and no opposition in the NLA. What chance now when he only have a slim margin in Parliament. He just is a waste of oxygen talking about helping the farmers.

Just a extreme right nutter from previous Thai Patriot who harassed democratic minded people. He even trained militants for his hit jobs and trailed Thanathorn for purpose of harassment.

The committee said it hoped to see additional new monetary and fiscal measures from the government to boost the economy.
The committee may need to recall Thaksin to be their adviser.

Deputy Prime Minister for economic affairs Somkid Jatusripitak said on Monday (September 30) that the government is considering expanding the 10-million participants limit in the “Eat, Shop, Spend” scheme as the campaign has earned an overwhelming response. The Finance Ministry will also look into the possibility of boosting the Bt19-billion budget.
I think he ought to look into the overwhelming mess in implementing the previous scheme before considering to expand another mess.

Thailand just need a more competent government and a capable Prime Minister. Really a wrong government at the wrong time.

I hope that BOT will include military procurement in their consumption index and expenditure report. I am positively sure that their numbers will be most impressive.

With the FED likely for 2 more rate cuts this year, Baht will likely appreciate against USD. Thailand interest rate will look very attractive for safe haven investments with the EU and Japan in negative rates territory. Hard for BOT to prevent the inevitable. Best they can do is to smooth out wild gyrations so that exporters can manage with better hedging. Expect the Baht to breach the 30 Baht level by year end. Brace yourself.

He is indirectly warning ahead of this election that the EC will again try to cheat in this by-election as they did in another Nakhon Pathom constituency by crediting the wrong votes to the Dem. He is calling out for a good voters turnout and win big to send a message to this government that their days are numbered.

Nobody pays my expenses," Giuliani said in an interview with Reuters on Friday. "What does it matter if I'm getting paid for it.
Not familiar with Giuliani. Is he a comedian that come out with funny line like 'truth is not truth' and now this gem of contradicting himself in one sentence.

Stephen Miller just like Jim Jordan only know how to be discursive and obfuscate. Never had a direct answers to any questions by Chris Wallace (FOX) and Jake Tapper (CNN).

Really based on reciprocity; aka Trump philosophy. Buy our military junks and in return we will say nice things.

Trees remove carbon from the air and give us oxygen so how about oxygen as a farming product paid for with government funds.
I think it is a good idea that the scheme should include a form of carbon credit whereby carbon market can be created to allow carbon credit to be sold to companies that need to offset their emission. This should also extend to the farmers as a way for them to earn some extra money. They are doing a lot for the environment but not financially appreciated.

Mighty loss of face for Prayut who had boasted about these flagship projects that will spearhead Thailand 4.0. Also a mighty loss of side income.

No doubt that Parliament can't afford delay and must reached a consensus and approved the budget in this dire economic times but I hope that all parties will engage in a robust but orderly debate on budget allocations and the government must prepare to explain and provide proper answers especially the allocations for high defense and interior ministries. This lower house budget debate will be critical to see if the coalition and opposition parties break ranks or stay in line. The upper house of paid goons can only watch.

It should be why any ally can trust Trump. This is all his impulsive decision which blindsided and shocked the Pentagon. His idiosyncratic excuse is that “it cost too much money and the affected countries should fight and pay for their own wars” paraphrasing.
