  1. angmo post # 6

    Interesting that they want to impeach two guys who tried to change part of the Constitution through parliamentary procedure even if a little fishy. Wonder what they would do to someone who ripped up the entire Constitution

    That was the ultimate of those involved in the administration at that time by devious means.Their acts have led Thailand and its peoples to where we are now

    Complete bullshine. What devious means did the administration at that time employ? Do you even know, or is this just a "go along with the flow and argue the toss because it's something to do with the PTP" type argument?

    Surely you can't mean the attempts to amend the constitution in line with the guidelines of the Constitutional Court?..........................coffee1.gif

    The devious means were that all those who voted in the senate for the yes camp are all well known as being in the control of Thaksin.... No secrets there.

    Secondly., The speakers sent home all the no camp and told them the debate would reopen at 9am in the morning, strange how the entire yes camp stayed and did not go home, and the no camp returned in the morning at 9am only to find that the bill had been unanimously pushed through.

    Or did you forget all that?

    Why the hell do you think they were dragged up in front of the constitutional court in the first place?

  2. Pure Hypothesis.

    Let's say that Thailand was dragged into war with a neighboring country and suffered many casualties.

    If the Thai government declared that it would be willing to give unconditional citizenship to all farangs who joined the army to fight for Thailand. Would you consider it?

    I know a lot will say that they are too old or out of shape, to consider going to war, but let's say you were in your mid 30s and fit and healthy with plenty of life ahead of you.

    Let's also say you were married to a Thai and had a family here (as many of us do). So not only would you be fighting to protect the sovereignty of Thailand, but for the protection and liberty of your ow family.

    Would you be tempted?

  3. apprehended in Mukdahan's Kham Cha-I district on Tuesday afternoon while allegedly taking the stolen valuables and jewellery to his girlfriend in Kham Cha-I.

    Then we get......

    adding that police had yet to retrieve the stolen valuables.

    First of all he claims that the thief was caught while taking the valuables to his gf, then they say they don't know where they are.

    What is the betting that they have already found a new home and the insurance is going to pay. Wonder how many BIB the 9 mil will be split between?

  4. some people like to hear the sound of their own voices and to show that they also, have some

    to say...

    And how's that going to be implemented prey tell... assigned a personal guard to every tourist

    or lock up all the criminals and would be criminals to avoid crimes for happening?

    assigned a personal guard to every tourist

    Then we can place bets on how many tourists are robbed, scammed, raped or murdered by their personal guards on the first day.

  5. I have times heard people say,

    Thailand will be fine without the tourist dollars and until now the government has not been too bothered with it.

    Now it is slipping between their fingers and thai small and large have realized " oh shit we do need those foreigners"

    Tourism is the backbone of this country and brings in trillions of baht every year.

    I wonder if a fair investigation and arrests from the kt scandal might help to soften the uk travel warning.

    The warning is not about military rule, but about unpunished attacks on foreigners. If i read that warning i would not come to Thailand.arresting the 2b does not help.

    I always laugh when I read some jerk claiming Thailand can live without tourist revenue without a problem.

    Strange coincidence that the annual 2.2 trillion baht in tourist revenue is exactly the same as the 2.2 trillion baht annual government budget.

    So with no tourists, Thailand has to find 2.2 trillion baht from somewhere else.

    It won't find it.

    Thailand WILL go bust.

  6. Pheu Thai caretaker spokesman Prompong Nopparit led other legal advisers to ask NLA president Pornpetch Wichitcholchai in writing to postpone the impeachment of Yingluck, claiming that the former PM had not received copies of the NACC's complaint.

    Did she/they already forget everything before the coup?

    She has already been tried, and found guilty by the Cons Court. She and her lawyers did their level best to delay using the very same BS excuses then and it all failed. She has already had all the literature from the NACC back then, and this is not a different case. It is one and the same case.

    There is not a case for her to fight, she just needs to await her impeachment which is in the bag.

    Then hopefully the NACC will push for a criminal trial.

  7. At the end of the day, she is as guilty as sin and must be punished. Failure to do so will undermine the 'so called' reforms completely.

    Tens of millions want her to face the music, not only for the sake of punishment, but also to send a strong message that times are changing. Politicians will need to pull themselves together or face similar.

    No punishment, then there may as well just scrap the reforms, reinstate the old constitution and hold an election immediately and wait for the civil war.

  8. But these diet pills can be real killers.

    Slightly unsubtle writing Costas.

    Please take a little time and look at the heading of my avatar.

    What does it say?

    Greek member.

    You try and write something in Greek and I'll tell you if your writing is subtle or unsubtle.

    Based on the above, I would say Costas command of the English language is sufficiently effective ;-)

    So these diet pills are used for staying awake and studying for long periods?

    Yes.

    They are loaded with amphetamine sulphate, otherwise known as 'speed'.

    They were very popular in 80s UK where they were sold in many night clubs.
