  1. and there you go (and so judges have to apply their own... judgement) and judges are appointed by !!!!!
  2. good point, The EC. Thai election laws, like virtually all Thai laws, always have some vagueness so that they can be "interpreted" (anyone ever visit Thai immigration?). The EC was appointed by the Junta and will always find something to question based on their "interpretation" of the rules.
  3. In the late 20th century, mass media could be classified into eight mass media industries: books, the Internet, magazines, movies, newspapers, radio, recordings and television.
  4. Books are literature and by any definition it media
  5. The problem with the above the courts do not rule on Precedent they take it case by case so even if this is done in the past it does not matter
  6. very good post, (Pita wrote a book or two a while back, and is using this to say he's part of a media empire) Books are literature, so Literature itself is media (grey area)??????? thoughts!!!
  7. Your total post is completely full of misnomers, no facts, all hearsay, Misleading term, should i go on !!!
  8. Total load of Rubbish that may happen in the us or where you come from but not in Thai law Google is your friend
  9. all iam telling you to be carefull what you post on a PUBLIC forum, some thai might take offence
  10. i think you need to check what you are posting as i said thailand has nasty defemation laws and here you are implying that the staff of this park are corupt (no proof)
  11. I dont have a problem with the deaths in In February 2003, but i have a problem with this In 2007, an official investigation found that more than half of those killed had no connection whatsoever to drugs, but you need to tone down the rest of your statment Thailand has very harsh defamation laws, and i dont think you have any proof of what you are saying
  12. do you live in a different world, you need to start naming these so called oligarchs methinks it all in your mind fairytails, would love to hear some of these oligarchs, and thaksin was a policeman to start off with
  13. He has said that he is the executor of his fathers estate the shares are NOT in his name, dont know where you have gotten this from, please ref your source as iam not aware of this ???The shares have NOT been sold as this would be breaking the law, the company ITV is in litigation with the goverment and shares can not be sold, your info totally incorrect.
  14. And the smallest country in the world
  15. I totaly agree, I can not see any reason why he transfed the shares, the ec and naac knew about the shares a long time ago and gave the green light. the courts have ruled on other MP and senitors holding media shaes and because the share holding is very low can not influence the media company the court ruled all ok,but i know the thai courts do not use Precedent, but i think he should have just carried on and not done anything , but this is thailand . Look at the latest because he wrote a couple of books they are saying he is running a media compay !!!! there id a differance books are literature nothing to do with media but thai's will be thai;s
  16. because he is Executor of the estate, any how he told the ec and nacc all about the shares a long time ago he got the green light all ok and they know they made a mistake as they did not think he would win the election if you look into the history of holding share you will see a lot of MP senitors who hold shares in media companys but because they dont have a lot of share dont have influance the courst have said no problems
  17. A Non vote is a NON vote, this is your opionion but totally incorrect it very obvious you have no idea Thais are very lazy a lot dont give a damm thats why a lot did not vote, but MF won the election and hopfully can form a goverment and that will represent the whole of the thai people
  18. if you dont belive thar BP is biases to the military more fool you. In Thailand if there is a court case you can not sell the shares, and ITV is in a court case, therefore Pita could not sell the shares, pita was executor of the shares, the shares were tranfered no money passed hands, as executor in Thailand it mean he was NOT the owner the shares, The shares where not tranfered into his name they are owned by his father
  19. Abstention from voting is a form of exercising one's right to vote. When someone confirms that they are abstaining from voting, it means they are voting neither for nor against the motion at hand. They are nevertheless taking part in the election through expressing neither approval nor disapproval for a particular candidate, party or motion. he need 376votes from MP or senators
  20. No you dont have to be owner, the shares where tranfered Pita transferred his shares to his relatives sometime ago without any benefit from it. He can not sell those shares anyway because itv was not list on the SET. Remember BP is a military newspaper they want to bring MF down
  21. Have you read his posts !!! I respect he has an opionion but NOT blatant rubbish which most of his post are in my opionion
  22. I really like to know how you are stating that the Thai people dont have a consensus, have you taken a survey of the people ???? dont just rely on the figure you have quoted all that could of changed, all we have is that MF is trying to form a goverment and that goverment will represent ALL the thai people, and that is all the artical is saying A General agreement if you dont agree tuff
