Pure and utter farce. The deal appeases nobody who actually voted i suspect.

A no deal brexit is the likeliest option at this stage. Certainly not ideal by any stretch, yet the EU minus the UK stands to lose a good size of its revenues and political clout too.

At least when it is binned May will be forced to resign. She has made herself appear pathetic and deluded for sj long now

As much as i applaud Yossanan saying the right things now, I do think Prawit has a point when he asks why he kept his mouth shut for the last few years, don't think I can recall Yossanan saying anything explosive in the last 4 years anyway while the NCPO has been bashing on with its deeds.

Prawit is the lowest of the low undoubtedly, but he needs to tread carefully here, he is a liability and his rantings to the wrong people (former high ranking ones who will know some dirt undoubtedly) could bring some very uncomfortable truths to the fore in the election run up.

This Yossanan guy I hope doesn't become another Seh Daeng, at least in the way he ends up when it's all said and done.

Jesus wept, and the rationale for thinking this pony idea is going to work is????

1000 baht plus a head to go stand on a rooftop. The calibre of idiot who'd pay that is more of a turn off than the price itself.

At least in the other roof top places you get music, drinks, and food if u are feeling flush. 

What a lame gimmick ????

I guess his goose is COOKED alright.. for me, anyone who deals for drugs for profits, he has no place among normal, everyday people....

Which type of drugs Ezzra, only the ones you don't like I expect? So bar owners and restauranteurs the world over who dish up alcohol (arguably the most harmful drug of all) to their paying, willing customers have no place among normal everyday people then by your weird logic.

Obviously, the drug laws and sentencing guidelines in Asia for controlled drugs are insane, but who do you really think controls it all? Or allows a trade worth billions of dollars to flourish exactly?

From your comment it is evident that you know little about how the global drug trade operates, and are unable to distinguish different types of drugs based on their end use, and harm potential on the user and society at large. In short, get a clue mate.

About the OP, the 2 people sentenced to death knew the risks, and were stupid to get involved imho

Boys being the key word. These lot have egg shell thin egos with pre pubescent brain pans to match.

Dolts in uniform

Anyone with eyes (Thai or otherwise) can see already that the election is not free or fair even at this stage, 1 man and his associates have had a huge leg up in the form of unrestricted campaigning with bucketfuls of public money to push a purely populist agenda while anyone else even remotely linked to politics is straightjacketed.

This abominable guy Don is only towing the party line I suspect, but his levels of delusion about the state of the country and how it is perceived internationally (not a basket case) is frightening. 

Does anyone really know (i am actually asking here) how the junta's proxy party / parties can actually lose? Is it even possible or not?

Typifies the country's major ills in 1 fell swoop. Those who are clean and have not accumulated their wealth honestly will scream blue murder when asked to do so, and so it appears.

The culture in the country is wrong though, i suspect a very small (almost token) few will have risen honestly to any sort of meaningful ranking level. And it is most galling that a man who has never explained the true sources of his hundreds of millions of baht in assets is calling the shots here.

What a dreadful, dreadful mess this is. I hope the students themselves realize what the rotten apples at the top of the Universities are up to, and act accordingly to resist them, it's the only way to go

And yet the app based ones do what customers want without all the drama and without hiking prices.

Regular cabs are victims of their own bad reputations. Son nam na

These brave and switched on kids are too popular to haul in just now. When they're not so firmly in the spotlight anymore they'll be lifted.

The junta and their henchmen are playing a long game. And right now they hold all the cards.

The youth need to keep the pressure on and show the dinosaurs in charge in a negative light through artistic and peaceful means.

Hoping the pressure doesn't relent

One moronic shill replacing another. Dreadful ????

Jesus wept let this ghastly, shambles of an airline free itself from the public purse so that it can die a swift and ugly death.

The fact that some THAI staff were wearing black smacks of unbelievable arrogance. Pathetic ????

It's great to see that many comments on the posts are scathing and derisory.

The people can actually vent here, and that is a good thing

His handling of the alleged rape on Koh Tao shows all I need to see. Setting out to kill a potential victim's credibility to paint an untrue picture of KT's credibility while pushing for arresting Thais who shared a news story is pretty abhorrent.

He is a lackey of Prawit, says it all really

As much as i sympathize the van owners, the years of shoddy and disgraceful driving alongside the outright horrendous catalogue of major crashes has put this spotlight on them.

Vans can run for much longer than 10 years if they are driven normally and well maintained, but there is too much evidence pointing to both of these things simply not being done.

I feel mostly for the commuters who are now going to feel the brunt of this policy that although is well intentioned, simply isn't appropriate while alternative modes are not readily available now

So in essence, the rules can be interpreted however those illegally in power currently spin it. There is no interest in playing fair or going fully in line with their already rigged constitutional stipulations. Prayuth will continue sitting in his lofty, unelected perch, dishing out orders and restrictions to all and sundry while engaging in massively more damaging behaviour himself.

What damages the country's image more is the 100s if not 1000s of legitimate migrants (some of whom are holding UN documents supporting their need to wait temporarily in the Kingdom) being forcibly arrested and kept under lock and key while this idiot who just because he holds a Chinese passport acts up and rightly gets a bit of (certainly OTT) rough treatment causes the government to go into meltdown.

Pathetic really, this is only about money, this is only about keeping the Chinese sweet as for a whole raft of reasons many other nationality's tourists numbers are declining year on year.

Tyrannical, and utterly ridiculous to boot. The tantrums are being thrown at prolific levels lately.

I do love his attempt at debate though, just throw down loads of empty and redundant hypothetical visions. Jusy surprised he never mentioned good governance in this latest wobbly
