Wonder if Prayut is packing his bags yet looking for a new house???

Fun and games not over yet, but first step.

Prayut Legacy

Keystone cops

Fist step in Democratic rule for Thailand

This is just rambling does not make sense. war mongering against Myanmar?????

Well well !!!!!! What a suprise

Does not matter if Pita played clean or not, do you think Pita and MF are going to be allowed to form a goverment ??? This was all designed and written into the Junta constitution; the Military/Establishment side in Thai politics knows that they are unable to win a fair or fair-ish election, so they added poison pills. Delay, Delay carry on Payut. The EC was appointed by the Junta and will always find something to question based on their "interpretation" of the rules. Moreover, they'll take their sweet time in doing so against an opposition candidate as every day after the election goes by, the sense of momentum of the winning, Pro-Democracy side wanes just a little. Finally, after they have done their best to blunt a sense of momentum, they'll refer the case to the NACC "out of an abundance of caution" so that the new PM will be referred to as the "under investigation (insert name)". Next is the NACC. The NACC will conduct a "fair and complete" investigation and take their sweet time about it in order to continue the policy of blunting momentum and casting aspersions on the Pro-Democracy side. Hmm... isn't Prawit's former aide still Head of the NACC? After the NACC, the Constitution Court will weigh in. Remember them? The ones who decided that an army regulation superseded the Constitution so that Prayut could live rent-free on an army base? The Senate. Since you all know about the Junta-appointed Senate, I won't waste my time. The process is clear as day. "Concerns" will be raised. Bull<deleted> rules and regulations will be cited. "Doubts" will be cast. "Questions" will be asked. In August , approximately four months after the election, when the momentum from the election has worn off and the leading candidate or candidates from the opposition side have been tarnished in the name of "making sure everything is correct", then they will decide if they want the tarnished candidate or they decide that "more investigations" are needed to "ensure fairness" and muddy it up further. This is all by design and was planned a few years ago.

Do you think Payut is going to hand over anything, this caretaker goverment is going to be here for a long time, delay ,delay

Judgments cannot be pronounced in absentia because the perpetrators escape the verdict by fleeing. not sure about this Thaskin, Yingluck ,and red bull come to mind believe they have been convicted in absentia.

Payut's legacy he must be proud, Thailand Hub of coruption.

so you belive the news !!!!! think you need to get your head out of the sand and do your own research

Thailand is Not a Democracy full stop. A democracy is a country in which power is held by elected representatives. is the senate elected NO. is the current MP elected NO is the current goverment a sham YES is Thailand controlled by the military junta/ elite Yes

I can not understand what this guys motives are ??? If Pita and mf are disbarred this guy will have to leave the country or have protection for the rest of his short life, why would you put yourself and family in danger over this ?? Their are lots of nasty men out there.

yep, Chon Buri police chief plus 8 more, Thailand is Now the HUB of coruption in Asia, everyday some new coruption or scam, Amazing Thailand !!!! Payut must be so proud of his legacy as head of the police

so if a Thai couple get 15yrs for picking mushrooms, what are they going to get,?? bet its a suspened sentence.

Who gave the EC power to do this ? The Thai people, they voted in this constution, This is all by design and was planned a few years ago. Power in Thailand isn't given, it is taken. If Pita and the Pro-Democracy side want to govern, they need to start fighting back, and quickly. Leaks about the EC members and their pre-election overseas trips and perks, point out the ridiculousness of involving the Senate, discreetly organize street demos, start making public statements about how stupid the process is, etc. Political power is an ephemeral thing as it is rarely measured, The vast majority of time, political power exists simply because people think you have it. Conversely, if people don't think you have it, you don't have it.

And pigs will fly

I have no sympathy with the people if they can not see that this is just an excuse to line the pockets of some general or other,only the people can stop this its their Tax money.

correct yes, kept in the dark and fed bullXXX,but they dont realize it, i came here over 25yrs ago there was coruption but not on the scale it is now its every day

This is old news , it will never be made public

100%

If pita does not get his finger out and start fighting their is a real possibility, MF is not liked by very powerfull people who do not want to see MF in power

Would not forget him just yet, he is liked by very powerfull people who wish for him to stay, all this was planned a long time ago, The EC was appointed by the Junta and will always find something to question based on their "interpretation" of the rules. Moreover, they'll take their sweet time in doing so against an opposition candidate as every day after the election goes by, the sense of momentum of the winning, Pro-Democracy side wanes just a little. Finally, after they have done their best to blunt a sense of momentum, they'll refer the case to the NACC "out of an abundance of caution", delay delay caretaker goverment all ok, can see this going on for a long time building up evidence against MF. There are a lot of very powerfull people who do not like MF and who do not care about the Thai people or what they want.

Correct
