That’s was the junta government that didn’t ratify in 2012 to prevent ICC investigation of military atrocities against civilians. Not Thaksin’s government. How did you get this fact so wrong? Must be a junta acolyte.

Thailand did voted in favor of UN Resolution to condemn Russia invasion of Ukraine. Very clear lines being drawn.

More than a few dollars. Russia is among the largest trading partner with Thailand with exports of 1.02 B USD and large investments in real estate, business and tourist revenues that will grow to 10 B. Sretha is doing what best for Thailand notwithstanding Putin is a evil pariah and a human rights abuser.

Indonesia, Vietnam and Thailand invited Putin to visit. All should resign because you say so.

The last junta government has rescinded the ratification to the Rome Statute of the ICC in 2012 to prevent ICC investigation of military atrocities against civilians.

He is doing what's best for Thailand. Putin was also invited by Indonesia for the G20 gathering. Much in line with Asean approach to foreign power relationship. Uncomfortable but practical considering the Russian tourist revenues.

Thailand is a small trading nation dependent on relationship with major powers. Neutrality and non-alignment are foreign policies adopted by all Asean countries.

If I recalled, PTP didn't win the election and all political parties have election pledges. MFP promised to raise wage with yearly revision, debt relief and subsidize housing loans. UTN will increase monthly grants per person and subsidies to buy goods and services. PPR offer 30,000 B to 7.5 million farming households, increase monthly grants for state welfare holders and subsidies for petrol, diesel and cooking gas. All bare face bribes and illegal?

Meanwhile Trump's idiocry continue with his praising of Hazbollah, Xi, Putin and Kim. One acting Presidential while the ex-prez acting like an uncouth dumb ass.

Only PTP? How naive.

PTP appointing loyalists who share the same ideologies and support their policies to the government. Why is this headline news.

I was too hasty to hope that the Oslo Accords may possibly be the answer. With this savage attack by Hamas, I think the 2 states solution is out of the question. Hamas covenant to kill all Israelites leave very little room for 2 states to co-exist. It is a sobering political quagmire with innocent lives lost and will be lost on both sides. Just pray and hope that the conflict do not spread to a wider war and a resurgence of terrorist activities around the world.

The political landscape will never be the same when this war is over. It will be a long dragged out war if the Israel government intend to annihilate every Hamas and its infrastructures. FIBUA in densely populated Gaza will be a long grinding war with heavy casualties on both sides and considerable civilians sufferings. However the savagery of the Hamas militants will be answered by a resolute IDF. I do hope there will be mediated ceasefire and a political settlement based on the principles of the Oslo Accord.

Mary Trump is generous in her vitriolic truth about her uncle. She should said "f....ing criminal lying traitorous maniac uncle and that may even fall short of describing Trump.

The Palestinian cabinet in Ramallah has a legal mandate to call for holding elections per the elction laws. Hamas being the defacto power in Gaza can decide whether to hold elections or not. In the past, Hamas has prevented several attempts to hold election sparking anger by the voters in Gaza. Hamas has announced that they are ready to hold municipal election on the 27 September '23. A recent survey from the Palestine Center unveiled that Hamas hold a 58% in Gaza and 42% in the West Bank favouring Hamas. Time for Gaza to decide in an election whether their future lays in the hands of radical Hamas.

What about allowing Gaza to have an election when the current crisis is over. Allow the people of Gaza to decide their leaders. Since Hamas won the 2006 election, no election was held henceforth. Peace be with the people of Gaza and Israel.

And the irony is that the poorest states are red states and red states need blue states and the mother of all irony is that red states are benefitting most from Bidenomics. Now who is the fool that said that Joe destroyed the country.

A blockchain wallet will ensure that collection.

Let's go back to the basic as defined by Article 2 (4) of the UN Charter that prohibits the threat and use of force and calls on all Members to respect the sovereignty, territorial integrity and political independence of other States.

Yet to disclose funding source. Hints that it could be from government fiscal 2024 budget and tax revenues as a result of the economic stimulus or even borrowing from domestic bonds. Devil in the details. My feeling is that the project will trim down the number of recipents based on income level which will trim down the project cost.

World Bank also has a waiver in their forecast that state that they don't quarantee the accuracy or assume responsibilities for any errors, ommission or discrepancies in the information.

Intelligent people make judgement on who they support based on merits and moral discipline.

I think it is too soon for the economists to object to the project without the full details on its implementation. The project may not be for the estimated 56 millions and may be directed to a much smaller group of Thais living below certain level of income. There is still time to design the project's particulars with the constantly moving economic datas.

Polar opposite statements with one speaking with intelligence and as a leader while the other low level intelligence buffoon make empty boastful innuendo and wishing to be a leader.

It’s not only about money; it also has to do with politics. Dysfunctional congress is inhibiting sensible legislations to be passed. The Citizens Act of 2021 has some sensible proposal including having designated processing centers in Central America which can alleviate the human tragedies. Proposed in 2021 and never got passed and forgotten by the current House. Sad state of affairs held hostage by politics played in the House at the expense of suffering people who just want a better life. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/U.S._Citizenship_Act_of_2021#:~:text=The U.S. Citizenship Act of,ending of the 117th Congress.
