Any candidates for the Speaker position will face blistering attacks (personal, legal), and would likely not pass a first vote. This is the first crucial step in forming a government. The powers that be will make every effort to stop MFP/PTP at this stage. If someone, somehow were to pass a vote, they will have a MASSIVE target on their back. You need someone with parliamentary experience, like years and years, in this position.

I wonder if he will maintain his military government housing situation, upheld by the Constitutional Court in 2020. https://www.khaosodenglish.com/politics/2020/12/02/prayut-acquitted-of-ethics-breach-over-housing-retains-post/

90 Day online BKK Not Processed
bamnutsak replied to Plern's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
I did an online report (CW) recently. Was approved in one business day. Submitted June 9, 2023 05:47 Approved June 12, 2023 07:47 I've done quite a few online reports, with approvals taking up to three business days (weekends and holidays excluded). Can you share any background? Is this your first online report? If not, have your previous reports been approved? Has your address changed? If so have you filed a TM30? Has anything else changed? Did you get the reminder email? Did you perhaps leave the country and return, thereby resetting your "clock"? You could cancel the filing, you should see an "X" for that purpose, and re-file. -
Pita voices support for ASEAN-led peace efforts for Myanmar
bamnutsak replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
Another kick in the nuts, this time for FM Don. Love it. Ouch. That'll leave a mark. The last thing the dinos want to hear on the way out is criticism. -
Look, republican rightwing nut jobs are just smarter than us left-wingers. They work harder. They have no rules. They take no prisoners. They never, ever stop until they achieve their objective. I must, grudgingly, accept that. I would have never, ever have advocated for stacking the court, or sucking up to, and compromising, Supreme Court Judges, but I'm not a zealot. And maybe I'm stoopid. But if you want something you have to be committed, and there are no rules. I can't bring myself to say fight fire with fire, because it is antiethical to me personally. But if others want to go there, go.

Roger Stone, Wife Agree to $2 Million Settlement in Tax Case (1) Roger Stone and his wife, Nydia Stone, have reached an agreement with the government to be held responsible for more than $2 million in taxes, penalties, and interest. The agreement, filed Friday, asks the US District Court for the Southern District of Florida to enter a judgment that would either resolve or have dismissed all of the claims the federal government made against the Stone defendants in its 2021 lawsuit. https://news.bloombergtax.com/daily-tax-report/roger-stone-wife-agree-to-2-million-settlement-in-tax-case

Palang Pracharath MPs Poised To ‘Play By The Rules’ In Picking PM

Yes, the contrast is staggering. "media shares" versus "heroin smuggling". -
Well that interview went about as well as a train derailing after hitting a dumpster on fire, then being overwhelmed by a volcano erupting. I guess Boris Epshteyn is his closest advisor, especially on legal matters, so things will continue to get worse for trump. It sounds like he is alone, with few of the adoring sycophants that he finds solace with. And no steadying hand of Ivanka or Jared. The end will be sad, not unlike his consigliere Roy Cohn, or Cohn's most celebrated client. There will not be a Trump International Airport, in the U.S.A. anyway. Maybe in North Korea or Russia?

Famous YouTuber Interrogated at Local Police Station
bamnutsak replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
Eight? Thirty? Fifty? The obfuscation begins. Having the Police investigate themselves just means that police corruption will NEVER be addressed. An independent civilian board needs to oversee the RTP. Nate probably should have had an on-screen and written (in the description/more area) disclaimer saying that "No real policemen were harmed making this video." And he should hire a few assistant editors to provide guidance going forward. It is interesting how many "Actors" appear to be real policemen. Especially the girth-challenged, with the shirt buttons about to pop and put someone's eye out. -
Rumours Over Bhumjaithai Being Brought Into Coalition Govt Dismissed
bamnutsak replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
It's going to be a nail-biter, and no one person is able to whip the vote, so unless this sort of coalition (BJT kicker) happens things could get crazy. ~ Twenty of BJT's seats are said to be subject to review per the EC. The Speakers vote comes first I think so that should be an indicator of the PtB's wind sock. -
Can anyone recommend an over the counter sleeping pill?
bamnutsak replied to Kenny202's topic in Health and Medicine
What is this medication? What is her diagnosis? This is the same doctor which made her diagnosis, and prescribed the "particular medication"? -
Budget? Volume (of use)? A cold press machine is ideal. There are home units, and commercial units.

Not entirely. In the film/tv show the transfer of the money is done online in an instant. See progress bar. Here the logistics fascinate me. Why are there enough 1,000 baht notes in circulation to deal with these massive pay-offs? Was it an int'l inbound transfer, domestic? That must require a visit to a branch? Surely transfers on the order of 7 M require additional bank management review? Then at the arriving bank they must have a clearance protocol for 7 M? Then somebody has to purchase luggage. And the arriving bank surely has security protocols? And reporting requirements. Then counting out the cash and stowing it in a pink suitcase? Like, nothing to see here. Graft, corruption, extortion are de rigueur here, so maybe they some special window at the bank for Big Money. Actually I assume the corrupt police, all but three of them, have banks/accounts/contacts in place for emergency transfers. Then who wheels all these suitcases around? I could handle two. Then leave them at a temple? Seriously, monks in on the transfer? What's their cut? I'm rarely amazed at any corruption here, but paying a 140 m cash bribe must require a boat-load of coordination and work.

There is so much wrong with this story, not the least of which is the transferring of 28 m or 140 m baht into Thailand, or between personal accounts. Then someone walking into a bank with a giant suitcase and getting 7 m (at 4 banks) or 28 m at one. Seems like no checks whatsoever on money laundering here. And no one asks questions at the bank? And the bank has enough cash on hand? Do the Royal Thai Police have their own bank? Or do they use one bank for all their illegal activities?

Prominent Thai lawyer calls for Pita investigation to be dropped
bamnutsak replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
This one, and it should happen more often. But the problem is that the accuser usually has higher status, so is immune from a counter-suit. "Serial moaner". Classic. https://twitter.com/ThaiEnquirer/status/1669332599624568832
