Do people really have to answer this? Of course it will. When you want to use unconstitutional means to overthrow an elected government it is going to cause convict.

When you have a democratically elected government that governs UNDEMOCRATICALLY, it will cause conflict.

When a democtatically elected parliament passes a law in the UK, will the opposition party, if they not agree with it bring the country to the verge of a civil war? No they won't. The same can be said of any European country, then why is it okay in Thailand for people with a hidden political agenda to use the passing of a law to bring the country to its knees? Any political party that have a majority in parliament have the constitutional right to pass laws, people opposing it may demostrate but they may not break the law. Here in is my problem with the PDRC, they had the right to demonstrate, but they don't have the right to break the law and neither do they have the right to prevent people from voting, neither do they have the right to assualt and kill people including the police, neither do they have the right to occupy government buildings. Two wrongs don't make a right.

Now turn the coin over and repost.

The opposition of any country is going to use grouse terms to refer to the ruling party,

you claim the Yingluck government 'has broken so many laws' then why was she only charged with 'deriliction of duty' or for transfering a single person to another post, AND THIS with the courts heavely biased against the PT party(as every international source mentions everytime they report on the situation here)

as a matter of fact the Yingluck government never did ANYTHING illegal, they know that there is this constant witchhunt by the courts to sack them with anything the court can make an issue of, so Yingluck in her 2 years was very careful to dot the is and cross the ts, but the courts STILL found some bogus crap to charge her with.

'diabolical governing' whatever

The last paragraph pretty much sums it up !

An election on july 20 is the way to go!

Stop shutting the people out.Its gone on long enough and Thailand and it's people are now in tis state limbo and the frustration and violence will continue as nobody on either side will except any decision that goes against them.

YOUR government should NOT be electable. It has gravely broken so many laws during it's 3 years. and you are advocating elections are the answer---they are but should not include PTP or a large section of them.

There is only 1 side that is guilty of diabolical governing, PTP. all the rest is the result of this. Why not clamp up--or tell the truth.

This post of mine is not a lie. your post is avoiding the cause of the problem as always.

Holly Moses I just vomited on my keyboard,excuse me bretheren I will be back in a moment.

Yellows living in denial!

Number 1 Red living in Dubai or where ever the fancy takes him,but not Thailand.

Stradavarius37, you must really love Thaksin. You seem to give him so much credits. You have various types of citizens with various educational levels and experiences. They can analyze the political matter and make the decisions for themselves.

Excuse me

The majority of Thailand love Thaksin, thats what a vote proves, 1vote 1 person. Seems like the yellows dont like this, and want to keep the majority down, scared they might get more education and wealth.

From a red standpoint 1 vote,1 person = 1000baht each.

My government?

It's not my government or your government it's the thai people government!

And the thai people should have the right to vote for whatever party they chose.Not being told who will govern them by people who crave power by the way of intimidating bullying and blocking people their basic right to vote.

So the yellows claim they have the numbers. That's a good thing!

Now call for an election and all parties put up their policies and go for it!

The only problem I see lately is that the leader of the democrats has been missing in action for a few days now.Not one statement from him on anything.

I just hope he is doing his own planning for Thailands future and gives the people other alternatives to chose from.

Sutep should be made irrelevant and as for the mad monk he has his own plans if sutep fails and who knows what's install then!

Totally agree,the Thai people should be free to vote for whichever party pays them the most money at the ballot box,democracy at it's finest.All other democracies should follow suit then the world would be a better place for following Thailands example.

This photo is very sad but true about the Thai underclass which Mr. Suthep seeks to exclude from the right to have an equal voice and vote.

Wow I wish I had your insight,do you know the names,addresses of the kids in the pic,their parents income and how many dogs they have.I see these things everyday where I live which on average is a middle to upper class area.So by your reckoning there are going to be a lot of people in Pathum Thani going to loose their vote based on a picture like this.I will pray for you.

_{Are the students safe? With all the bombs the anti government forces have. I sure hope a student doesn't find one laying around.}

They are safe,remember they come back in another life.

That's safe,no kids on the bonnet blocking the drivers view.

" Regarding the Government-to-Government deal to sell 800,000 tons of rice to Malaysia, the report said it was still under negotiation as the Thai price is about 10 USD different from the global price tag. "

" Different " ? Could that be the Pheu Thai euphemism for " higher " ?

Allow me to consult the oracle,oops.Sorry the oracle is down at the moment because the set top box for digital has not arrived.Have faith my son,the truth is out there.

TAT I am available for evangelical retreats in your den of iniquities.I have conducted a lot of research in Papong,Pattaya,Phuket and various other sinful locations.I have found that there are many lost souls with plenty of money.Promotion on at the moment,I saved soul was 100 dollars now 50 dollars.Group bookings can enjoy a bigger discount.Salvation guaranteed.This is an untapped market in Thailand,first come,first saved.

If you have 15 or more days remaining you could apply for a non immigrant visa entry at immigration. The apply for the extension of stay based upon reireement.

If you do not have 15 days you should make a trip to a nearby embassy or consulate to a apply for single entry non-o visa based upon being 50 or over.

Then during the last 30 days of the 90 day entry you will get on entry you would apply for an extension of stay based upon retirement. The 800k baht would need to be a Thai bank account in your name only for 60 days.

Unless they have changed the rules for the bank letter,it used to have to be not older than 24 hours,plus it had to show the balance matching the bankbook.I got caught out a couple of years ago because the letter didn't show the balance,had to get another letter.Not sure if this applies to all imm.offices.I go to Sahm Khok in Pathum Thani.Don't forget the form giving details of your parents ( it's in Thai ) and also they added another form saying you abide by your visa conditions.

May god be with you brother.
