PTP will get the PM slot but then it will be a sh*t show when the fighting starts for the cabinet positions. Prawit may not get a cabinet slot, but he's been assured his brother will (keep the corruption in the family). Does PTP really think all the junta in their coalition will let them makechanges to the military? Maybe they'll let some small modifications go through, but nothing substantial. And all the family monopolies / duopolies won't change so the younger generation gets screwed again (until the OLD dinasoars die). And all this just so PTP will get Thaksin back ....

PT party just doing what Thaksin says! Thaksin is ready to burn down the PT party just to get home ... pathetic old man with no scruples at all.

Senators have all gone fishing already. They just show up on paydays ....

Any word on who is looking into how the fireworks got transported up to this warehouse? Isn't the RTA in charge of this area and the roads? Big Joke is going after the RTP involved, but ...

How long did it take you to get your new passport? I keep hearing it is taking much longer these days ...

Double post

Problem is if this minority group has the PM seat in May '24 how much say / power do they have to nominate the new Senators? But, even if PTP gets the PM then the minister seats will go to the parties that joined them and PTP may not have the power to nominate the new Senators either.

Off-target question: What is Pita Limjaroenrat's District he was voted in as an MP on May 14th? Who are his constituents?

The fragile egos of these arrogant junta Senators! Sometimes you get what you reap ... now stop the whining.

If you believed your last sentence then why would the Police General MP even have to open his mouth? His party is worthless with only 1 MP in it. Pitha has given up more than the Senators, Elite Establishment and the military. The others have given up nothing. The Senators, military and the Establishment have such fragile egos yet act with such arrogance!

MFP still holds the House Speaker 2nd Deputy chair .... Will this stand if PTP gets PM slot without MFP?

Chiang Mai Immigration I had a problem with my 800,000 THB in the bank for Visa renewal. I used a K-Bank app and it withdrew money from my 800K Visa acct thus I was under 800K for 4 days (800 THB). These 4 days were during the last month before renewal. Immigration Officer told me if I had another account that did not go under 2,000 THB I could get another letter from the bank for this account and 1 yr statement from the bank. I presented 2 letters from the bank (validating the bank acct was mine and active) and a yearly statement from both accounts. IO accepted these and they gave me my 1 yr Visa (earlier this week).

"He is apprehensive that these demonstrations could inadvertently hamper the nation’s stride towards economic recovery." Business leaders should put the blame where it belongs, not on MFP/Pitha. Put it on the junta Senators, the military, and the Establishment HI-SOs for all the games they have played to keep MFP / Pitha out.

MFP / Pitha got 38% and then formed a coalition. The coalition wrote a MoU with NO lese-majeste in it. Lese-majeste changes are MFP only. The junta Senators used the "lese-majeste" law amendment as a smoke screen to cover the real reasons. The coalition support, of 68% (of voting Thais), was for the MoU they wrote which stated: - remove alcohol duopoly held by the rich families - eliminate the military from ever being in politics again - reduce the military size (# of generals) - stop conscription - reduce / remove the military perks (golf courses and such)

I asked this on twitter to a couple of Thai political people. What still isn't clear is does the next PM have sway over who gets nominated or not.

Funny math guy ... You trying to make your numbers work out to your benefit or your argument??? I corrected you before ... MFP got 38% of the vote. You use total Thai's of voting age, but only 70% of those actually voted - 37,987,549 . MFP got 38.00% PTP got 28.90% In this case you can add %s thus 66.90% voted for MFP and PTP.

You with the funny math again? Combine MFP and PTP people and that is over 70% of people that voted. That just might be enough to show a drop in earnings. There are many that did not vote that still side with MFP and PTP as well.

How many junta Senator's mistresses have they found? Publish each Senator and his mistress name!

Yes true, but the junta Senators hide behind their so-called "Thainesss" to seem respectable ....

Very true, the children should be left out of this. BUT, I've heard the international schools are trying to block Pitha's daughter from attending now. This has to be looked into.

It can if they are using Signal App that will delete msgs after a specified time. This doesn't help for getting their msg widespread though as you stated ...

The junta Senators all talk about the lese-majeste law as reason for not voting (or abstaining) for MFP PM candidate Pitha, but maybe this CEO has the real reason. They are afraid of losing their military jobs and priveledges.

When the existing junta appointed Senators term is up next year, how are new Senators chosen for office? Or is there a new vote for Senators only?

Why isn't the Chiang Mai Governor involved in this as well? He sure didn't speak out against the junta Gov about the bad air quality this year.

He's aiming for the Privy Council where if he makes it all his past transgressions will be wiped clean.
