Overrule the senators? Unfortunately not. "Most importantly, senators have the power to select the PM with members of the Lower House from the list of candidates proposed by elected parties." https://www.nationthailand.com/thailand/politics/40027738 "GOV’T UNVEILS 250 SENATORS FULL OF GENERALS, JUNTA FAVORITES" https://www.khaosodenglish.com/politics/2019/05/14/junta-unveils-250-unelected-senators/ As things get closer to July 5th you'll see that these elections are just a sham.

Nothing works without the votes of the handpicked senators. The senators were handpicked by the current Junta leaders: Pryut and Prawit.

FOX News. Garbage.

Unfortunately he's as rude and abrasive a poster this forum has. Usually the worst posts begin Friday-Sunday, binge drinker I assume.

Really nice. Great location, good breakfast!

I believe the RTP already have barricades and other preparations ready for the announcement. I believe most Thai's are just numb from this hooligan government. Who wants to risk years in jail protesting when nothing ever changes.

"PM calls for peaceful and prompt transition of power" This is the guy who hand picked the 250 Junta senators. Get rid of your senators and we have some resemblance of a democracy. This guy just wants these soundbites, but there empty baloney!

Dangerous, perhaps. A Dump for sure. One airport I never look forward to going to.

Just have the current Military junta admit there never going to cede power. Perhaps that will please the markets. Obviously it's up to the 250 Junta hand selected mobsters who ultimately choose the next PM. "A senator who has been publicly disparaging of the Move Forward Party is now saying that party leader Pita Limjaroenrat will never get enough support from the Senate to become Thailand’s next prime minister." https://www.nationthailand.com/thailand/politics/40028938

Nobody in the government or the private sector is going to pay to update there buildings. It's prohibitively expensive and the expertise in Thailand to do such thing would be practically non-existant. Thankfully earthquakes are rare in Thailand.

How <deleted>**ng inconsiderate. If your going to smoke just go to a designated area. Sound like renters. Most smoking in rentals, balcony or not, forbid smoking. Hopefully complain and they go outside in the future so everyone is happy.

Almost as shocking as there recent bills.

Only a face a mother could love.

That's a YaBa addict face.

Seems that's a Republican/Ultra conservative thing. Average, normal people really could care less. If you wanna dress like the opposite sex. knock yourself out but don't shove it down my throat.

It seems transgender rights/news is everywhere, oversaturating the headlines. I guess it's the hip thing to talk about these days.

That's what my wife said. Usually means time for a deep cleaning. .... Perhaps hire a maid to come a couple of times a month.

I think a political party named "Move Backwards and thwart any choice for the people" would go over well with the the current government, constitutional court, and the election committee. It's ugly watching Thai politics unfold.

Thanks. Hopefully the police would think of such a simple thing as well.

That would be unsettling. I wonder if there were any security cameras around the area. If not, it's time for her to get some installed. Definitely be a dererent for other weirdos to drop of disturbing notes.

I was happy when they paved the roads and added a 7/11.

Crazy. There going to unload a bunch of Yaba addicts on them plus put them in some shi*-h**e public hospital somewhere as an insentive?!? Obviously Anutin the rimmer is still in charge.

Same as two years ago. Anutin the rimmer can't seem to place an order unless it's for Chinese vaccines. Ridiculous.

As usual, no solution. Regular working hours and higher pay. Our government hospital in Sakon Nakhon is a miserable cold war era building packed with patients and very few staff. Sundays there may or may not be a doctor on duty. Public hospitals have been always understaffed and underpaid. Nothing to do with COVID, although during big waves it was overwhelming for medical staff.

It's unpleasant but at least you have a choice to walk away. 200 baht versus 20 baht. Many scams are much worse and involve huge amounts of money. My wife just got scammed for fake Eucirin whitening cream, 1850.00 baht COD. The box ended up containing a bunch cheap Chinese hotel shampoo. Bummed her out.
