As the RTM seems to have made itself into a political force (especially now through ISOC) since its 1932 overthrow of the absolute monarchy with allegiance to what seems to be its own sovereignty, it apparently fears abrogation to civilian sovereignty. Just what democracy deserves.

In a way, yes. POTUS Trump did nothing for 4 years to address the immigration issues other a largely symbolic partial border built wall that Mexico was going to pay for. Thus, POTUS Biden had NOTHING to begin with but blamed for it. And when after almost 4 years Biden was able to get an expansive, bipartison conservative bill through the Senate to address the many immigration issues, the House MAGA at Trump's directive killed the bipartisan bill.

If there is a coup in the making, might such suspension actually accelerate the coup? Better might be active People's sovereign control in general (no pun intended) and transparency (especially in suspicious transfers of military personnel, sudden relocation of military equipment and disbursement of unaccountable/off budgeted defence funds) so that the government is provided early warning to possible coup. With regard to the latter, there might also be a whistle-blower statue in place to encourage and protect rank and file to come forth voluntarily as to possible coup planning and perhaps an Inspector General type oversight to whistle-blower accusations and subpoena authority directed to high ranking military.

From the article link so additional information: "As he was walking towards the restroom, a man, whom he did not know, approached him and struck him on the head with the blunt end of a pistol. Mr. Nakorn was unable to identify the assailant and said he did not know the motive behind the attack." So left the stage area into a crowd, heading to the restroom. Maybe mistaken for someone else.

How about in the heart of all major Thai cities to drive a sustainable environment?

So can we assume no taxpayer or donor funds were involved - a BYOB kind of meeting? Would be nice as a coalition government to reveal the agenda.

It's a constitutional crisis. The power to legislate (pass, amend and revoke laws of the nation) is actually granted specifically by the constitution under the clauses in the constitution whereby the sovereignty of the nation belongs to the Thai people. Not to any one person. This means no one person is above the law except for which one might be expressly given under a constitution and actual practice. A somewhat relatable example can be found in "How the Queen's constitutional role shifted over her reign," by Vernon Bogdanor, Sept. 9, 2022 https://theguardian.com/uk-news/

I always squeeze the plastic bottle, then screw the cap back on so reducing bottle size and keeping cap for recycling. Could just throw the cap in the recycle bag along with bottles but need larger bag.

Oh please. New York would recognize Jaywalking as a national event if it involved a street party.

What does this mean exactly? What is the ROE protocol? Shoot first, ask later? Or just protest again and again? The cited policy is nonsense and unworkable. What might be more viable is a "deconflict" line between the Mynamar and Thailand militaries such as existing between the US and Russian militaries over Syria. A daily deconfliction hotline between the countries would establish daily military protocols regarding potential military conflicts. "Status Unclear of US-Russia Hotline for Syrian Airspace," April 10, 2017 https://www.voanews.com Thailand might also establish same with the Myanmar National Defence Army-Ta'ang National Liberation Army that would reflect Thailand's apparent neutrality over the Myanmar Civil War.

That's all very well but maybe not so efficient use of expensive high performance F-16s. In 1992 the US sold to Thailand three E-2C AWACS having detection and tracking range of up to about 370 km or 230 miles - that would be sufficient for monitoring surroundering Thailand border airspaces. But likely retired by now. What AWACS does the RTAF have today if any? I did find an article dated 2009* that Thailand would buy as part of an acquisition package of Swedish fighters, one turboprop S-1000 AEW by Saab, spread over a 5-year budgetary commitment from 2008-2012. Purchase of another Saab AEW was planned over another 5-year budgetary commitment from 2013-2017 but was "delayed." Perhaps by the RTA coup in 2014 that might have competing military needs? But today TRAF is using F-16s (apart from just accumulating flight time) for monitoring nearby Mynamar airspace suggests Thailand now has no AWACS. * https://defenceforumindia.com "Thailand Buying JAS-39 Gripens, AWACS," dated Dec. 20, 2009

Sounds like an insurrection to me. Arrest the whole Thavisin government.

China with Thailand.

What about fax?

Technology has been around for years (decades?). Not commercially viable, adaptable, distributive, and dangerous to the environment. "Why hydrogen cars are not the answer," by Russell Hayes January 27, 2023 thecarexpert.co.uk Infrastructure - Hydrogen storage demands purpose-built facilities, which can’t simply be pluged into the national grid like a battery charging point. Car makers (ie., Japan) who have already built production hydrogen fuel cell cars have tended to be those who want to showcase their technical expertise rather than make a profit from them.

No, conservatism is not synonymous with authoriatarism.

Maybe you missed it but some called the 2023 election a coup, ie., a minority party with the aid of military appointees threw out what was to be a majority populist government. Seat belts of democracy no longer necessary.

Where was this court when coup leader Gen. Prayut abolished the entire 2007 Constitution in 2014 after unconstitutionally overthrowing the elected Parliament and government? Silence. But oddly retained their positions. Not even a polite protest. Generally under the Rule of Law, a person coming to court with a lawsuit or petition must have "clean hands," be free from unfair conduct. But what would it mean when the court itself has unclean hands in a matter it is to ajudicate? The Thavisin government should ethically and morally support MFP in its defense if the PTP government allegedly represents the Thai electorate majority - for it's the Thai People's sovereignty that is at stake. Or will there be just more silence?

It's a multiple issue. There's no "one size fits all solution to the labor gap. Lack of Thai skilled labor having technological know-how, (ie., shortage of vocational degrees) such as recognized by the EEC Office in S-Curve industries. Number of qualified Thai workers is falling due in part to population aging and low birth rate. Quotes and paraphrased excerpts from SCB Economic Intelligence Center "Bridging Thailand's Labor Gap," Insight published 2015Q1: "Impractical" schooling where even "professional-level candidates lack many skills required by employees, ie., in creativity, IT skills, English and mathematical proficiency." Thai schools and universities emphasize general education instead of vocational training, engineering and science. Thai schools focus more on studies for social sciences, business and law versus science, engineering and manufacturing, and science. The Hospitality and Food & Beverage sectors are least likely to experience labor shortage. Guess where the previous and new governments have been focused?

The 7/11 near my house project 2 years ago remodeled to 2x size, adding a 15 seat eating window area inside. So eat in cool ac.

Trump gave the world MAGA. Liz gives the world MEGA - Make England Great Again.

Trump said WW2.

From 90-member Civil Society Organizations (CSO), October 14, 2023 (very lengthy, detailed and ominous - just paraphrasing a couple key parts) "Joint Civil Society Statement Concerning Thailand's Fishing Sector at a Critical Crossroads," https://www.hrw.org/news/ the new Thai government should follow a clear precautionary approach that follows scientific principles, rather than prioritizing short-term industry gains over long-term stability, sustainability, and respect for human and labor rights. proposals that challenge the electronic payment system's overall effectiveness for ensuring that workers are paid and that they are paid the proper amount should be rejected all existing IUU directives and transparency mechanisms currently contained in both law and regulations to be preserved and strengthened, rather than diminished or dissolved. protection for the rights of migrant worker crews should be expanded, not reduced, and reform made to the Labor Relations Act of 1975 to permit foreign migrants to organize, officially register, and lead labor unions of their own making. The only catch up by the new government is Backing Away from the Future. They say liberalising, I say Ketchup to the 21st Century.

Regardless of the Iran-Israel conflict, Thailand appears to have already "trapped" itself with higher energy costs. (Note that unless Iran begins sinking oil tankers from Saudi Arabia, United Arab Emerites and Libya in the Middle East. Otherwise imports from the USA and Malaysia should be secure.) First by relying more on Russian oil exports given an advantageous currency conversion caused by UN sanctions against Russia and from pricing for what appears to remain neutral in Russia's invasion of Ukraine. Second Thailand has begun actively purchasing spot crude shipments to feed anticipated higher domestic fuel demand driven by Thailand's strategy to turbocharge its tourism industry. www.spglobal.com Spot prices can be artificially affected significantly by public perception.
