This says it all.....well nearly. No mention of the senators who overthrew the votes of millions of the voting populace and hence ..."failed to secure majority support in Parliament for the top job." and not just this but was denied the formation of government. Also fails to mention that PTP jumped into bed with the enemy and the enemy of their support base.

Interesting. If I was into conspir...... (wait not sure if it's actually allowed through algorithm but let's find out,) conspiracy theories, then how about this? He's being paid big, big, big time by the uncle's to do this. Destabalise the coalition and continue to do so by whatever means and hopefully sometime in future the whole thing collapes and .... ps. just a thought.

Populist Propaganda.

Sounds like Australia. Add huge bushfires to the mix (wildfires for the American English speakers) and it's defintely Australia.

My apartment put the price up last time when the price went up. I'm sure they will put the price down now the price has gone down. ????????????

Can you not read? Basically production runs at a loss. Please explain how savings can occur.

I really think this about getting Chinese (the one's with the money) here. Not sure they (the Chinese) care about what's going on here. Never have before. The bigger thing is the Chinese economy. Narritive is not to say it's not so good. We all know that the narritive must be adhered to so blame it on something else.

My guess is no one will cancel flights. Why would you? As for this it's simply reactionary and like everything else here it will last a while and then back to normal. As for the shooting, let's hope it's an isolated incedence.

Don't see you're point. The bloke wanted her out because of her treachory to the Thai people and Thailand. She was respected but no longer. She had her chance to go against the Senate but she abstained. Puts her in with the other non-elected, trough feeding mongrels. She's made her bed as have many others. Sooner or later those beds will be burning.

As we all know any law in Thailand is dependant upon power, corruption and money. Guns are rife here but this time it was actually a child not a manchild offender. There are millions of guns in this country and it would be a minority that are registered.

He's only there because of the army.

Interesting. Basically Prayut banned such things. Coyote dancing banned. Those short uni skirts. Banned. Sexy girls at the motor shows in skimpy outfits banned. Same mob is in just joined now with the conservative PTP. This, however, is news. It's all about the narrartive. Rich. crying, always in hospital, abused by husbands, guns pointed at them, subsurviant etc but of course this is the portrayal of women in those atrocious Thai soapies which is acceptable. More crap from the consevrative Buddhist minority.

Yep. And how much flows back to the farmer and how much flows into to the govt, exporters and millers pockets? Also interesting as they have been telling rice farmers to grow one crop (some areas can grow two, others one depending on irrigation or lack thereof) due to drought conditions.

Yep. And to all your other cronnie, corrupt senators. This is a great revolutionary/demonstration catch cry. I would add another "you are corrupt" and another "get out". “Go! Go! Get out of here! Get the hell out of here! You are corrupt! You are corrupt! Get out! Get out! Get out of here! Read this 3 times and I bet it sticks. ????

We all know how this stuff gets inflated so maybe it's a bit more like this.... This was a flight during Covid.

Expect the dodgiest questions. Just like the last one. The wording of the referendum should go to a referendum. It would be rejected.

I'm sure he's correct for those already in the 'upper income'. They will move to upper upper income.

Alcohol up. Cigs up. Massive borrowing from the govt. Just for starters. Populist policies always have to be paid for. This will not come from increasing the tax for the rich (or even taxing them) or taking the money trough away from the pig's snout. As for this it has still yet to be shown how people who are not in the 4km? (can't remember) radius will be able to use it i.e. I would imagine a very large % of the villages in Thailand.

How much of Thailand is already owned by the CCP? Chinese are the largest group of condo buyers. Guarantee these are state officials or familiy or businesses directly linked to the CCP. Absolutely horible dictator that no country on earth sould be involved with. Sadly that's not the case.

The Senate. Why not start there and work your way up, across and then down? Oh! That's right corruption is acceptable for the most powerful who are untouchable. What a charade.

The wet season arrived a couple of weeks ago.

Seems to me like a political tactic rather than corruption.

I agree. Take out corruption (which will not happen) and things could certainly improve i.e. more money for education and less money for the pockets of the corrupt from the top down to the school directors. Education is simply a business here. I was told of a school that had a smart board but it was not to be used. It was simply for advertising. This was from a person that taught there. 10 to 1 the parents payed for it and the purchasing price was way above the odds.

I too have lived here going on 20 years. I see change is wanted as the election showed. This time it wasn't granted. The people of Thailand's right to a democraticly elected government was usurped by minority powers. PTP treachery will not be forgotten or forgiven.
