    Isn't that draconian online defamation law still in place? This seems like an excellent way to get yourself thrown in jail by posting a video of a bad driver who didn't want to be "shamed".

    Defamation would be a "false" claim, I think video would prove it wasn't false.

    Section 330. Truth as a Defense

    In case of defamation, if the person prosecuted for defamation can prove that the imputation made by him is true, he shall not be punished. But he shall not be allowed to prove if such imputation concerns personal matters, and such proof will not be benefit to the public.

    Exactly right.

    Just about every countrys people have sat by and let politicians take the complete pเรร out out of them.

     

    Then if/when Thais do take to the streets the foriegn media portray them as simpletons and make out its a bannana republic.

     

    how long and how many times since Brits voted about this whole Brexit sham?

    and they still been ignored!

     

    Maybe if Brits made an "uprising" there it might be different.

     

    Cant really preach about Thailand.

    My country is blamed for going to war all over the world, so I know I won't be counted in the "armchair warriors", we love a fight!

    In May 2019 Thailand bought 37 “ striker “ vehicles from USA. The US government gave Thailand 23 more for free.............( Hey, buy one get one free! )Total of 60. These are fast moving armored, armed,land based, tire driven personnel carrying vehicles designed for ( aside from armed warfare) ............crowd control !!! ( those pesky crowds) Currently stored in the BKK area. Recently purchased 2017/2018, 38 VT-4s tanks, 3 S26T submarines, all manufactured in China . Total Thb 42.9 BILLION. That’s a lot of housing and infrastructure. Pull up a chair, get some popcorn, it’s going to be interesting. Oh, and a prayer for Thailand couldn’t hurt.

    I would like to see my government shut that sale down, but I doubt it. We should not be doing business with tinpot dictators.

    Be hopeful. The opposition has 244 seats and therefore have the numbers to initiate a vote of no confidence debate against the PM. They only require two-fifths vote against the PM and one-fifth against an minister. If some of the Dem MPs break party line, the opposition bloc can master a majority of one-half of the house to be successful. Prayut and his goons will have to keep their noses clean which I doubt they can.  

    S44 to the rescue.

  5. If he had won the PM position the investment potential from other countries would have exploded overnight, now? I wouldn't expect anything but a decline, as there is no good from doing business with a Napoleon, unless you are one of the other conspirator pigs on the farm. I wouldn't invest anything in this country either, its not a secure democracy, its a country now run by a corrupt imbecile who has now turned into megalomaniac.

    We could always leave with our family and money in tow, let them fend themselves, after Napoleon and the other pigs have raped and pillaged all they can.....maybe then Thailand will move forward in the world, today they are a Banana Republic which refuses to enter the civilized world, let them wither and die if that is their choice.

    Keep hoping, the Western world have had dozens of opportunities over the past years and have done bugger-all, so why will they do anything this time? 

    I am hoping that the reason was these elections, in that the hope was that they would fix the issue before a stance was made. This way no confrontation, but if Prayut using this rigged election becomes PM again, I would say all bets are off.

    The management and folks nearby would be, how to say, 'non plussed' , if i wuz to leave a load like that on the pavement. It's a nice place, nobody would like it. It's a bit shyytte to need to just dump stuff but when there needs dumping, it still needs to be in the right place and way etc

    I'm just saying that here in Thailand, nothing goes to waste, I am amazed what the workers will take from my trash in my townhouse community. You put anything out there, and in about 5 minutes, GONE!
