So his status changed along with his title? Seems to me Hun Manet is PM of Cambodia the same way Paetorngtarn is/was PM of Thailand.

I am in fact sure of it.

That is called Assumption!!   if you are sure of it prove it ??     And the correct term "ruled" past tense

Not sure how serious this charge is for ordinary Thais. She obviously said the army commander was on the opposite side of the political spectrum (i.e, not a Pheu Thai supporter), but language that critics argue undermines national sovereignty, the military, and the people of Thailand doesn't involve the whole of the military or the entire population of Thailand, let alone sovereignty. Sounds like making mountains out of molehills. Further, it was a private call, so whoever made an audio copy and released it should be let go as untrustworthy.

its obvious you do not read the news The full version was released by Hun Sen and if you do not know who he is,  he ruled Cambodia for almost four decades

There was several factors that brought down  this building  but they have not mention the main cause   CORRUPTION !! 

Its the muppet show

The courts are the army's courts (CC and EC) and are in place to protect the elites and their wealth and power. Apart from he who cannot be mentioned the army wields ultimate power here.

utter rubbish no proof all assumptions

Because this is a crisis entirely manufactured by the Army, who "own" the court. They probably realise that they may well not win a vote of no confidence, and that they probably would not win the general election that will follow.

 

So a slow motion "quasi judicial" coup is the way ahead.

Assumptions, personnel opinion, no proof    

Another muppet show 

If this is an example of her negotiation skills on the World stage  "God help Thailand " 

What a Muppet show this is !!!!!

Physical barriers?  Like automatic gates or crossbars?

 

Yep, works flawlessly at railroad crossings.

If you have a better idea please tell !!  even if there are Physical barriers Thais will still try to get around, no idea about safety, just think of themselves
