    Here are some interesting facts that will have a bearing on the coming election. Number of eligible voters according to the Bureau of Registration.

     

    Total qualified voters - 52,322,824 which can be categorized as follows:-

    Gen Z (1997-2017) 7,670,354 (representing only those above 18)

    Gen Y (1965-1980) 15,144,468

    Baby boomers (1946-1964) 11,153,133

    Silent Generation (1925-1946) 2,227,540

    Above 99 - 36,179

     

    Gen Z and Y hold the key. The voters that gave Thaksin the mandate years ago are now lesser and Unlikely to play a big part to influence the election results. PTP's landslide win may not be a sure bet but if they do win big, the Thaksin's factor is minimal. PTP will have to win over the Gen Z and Y with the right candidates and winning strategies. 

    Figures only add up to 36 million. ????

    The Guardian writes that it is quite common

    https://www.theguardian.com/world/2021/jun/30/gps-giving-second-covid-jabs-just-three-weeks-apart-despite-nhs-guidance   Wed 30 Jun 2021 19.21 BST

    "Many other countries operate shorter gaps between doses than the 12-week delays in the UK"

     

    It's becoming more and more clear that booster jabs will be needed with all vaccines. I'd agree with getting the protection up quicker now, you'll need another jab in 6 months anyway and it'll keep you out of hospital until then. Simplistic thinking, I know. But I think it works ????  

     

    The only thing you can trust in " the guardian " is the date.. ????????

    Good list, but might as well saved time and just said "everything".

     

    I'll add a few airport-centric deals: Suvarnabhumi (the actual airport itself - look no further that the current health minister,  and his firm Sino-Thai Engineering and Construction PCL, which built several government mega-projects such as Bangkok’s Suvarnabhumi Airport ), the CTX baggage scanners and the King Power concession (which made another family's fortune).

     

     

    Stuff falls off the truck here at at least a 30% clip.

     

     

    Lay off KP, they have brought us ( not bought )fa cup, charity shield and prem. league title - to foxes they are gods. ????????????

    you would need to look at yourself in the mirror and answer that question. 
     

    my 13 year old daughter would, I hope, come up with the right answer as to why it is disgraceful that a well to do and connected family not only seeks special treatment for its employees, but gets it.

     

    keep thinking about it and perhaps you will as well.

     

    if your post was simply to bait, you achieved that, but made yourself look rather foolish.

    Absolutely not baiting. .. I am amazed by your attitude implying that priviledges shouldn't come with wealth, surely that is the whole point of capitalism.
