Either will truly come about.

Nah. Plutocracies/Oligarchies. As such is practiced universally the world over. The norm accepted by dumbed down populations.

Notes for the establishment. Look inward and you'll find what you seek.

Not buying this surface goodness sh**. A con - the nature of politicians.

one hundred gazillion expected soon.

This acute consciousness of everything police/military state is not creepy to anyone.......especially being a news lead?

What if the accusers, slanderers and critics are found to be right and truthful in said court of law? Then what....?

How about free and open market concepts?

Who really are these foreign business leaders that might be questioning such policies? I want names and their business affiliations.....or it doesn't exist. A story that is created to misdirect or distract?

Thai speak. enigmatic rhetoric.

Yet, Lopburi isn't considered Isaan. Try again.

Or.....the more appropriate [and terribly ignorant/disconnected] Eurocentric manner: why can't they be like us?

Some [too many] are extraordinarily sensitive regarding things they clearly don't comprehend. This thread is perfectly reflective.

Expecting all this to be rescinded in short order. Full pardon along the way. The way the game is being played.

To date: the most influential partisan advisors. Thaksin Prayut Who would've thought.

Most astounding that most don't know of the real Thai markets - daily. Largely dependent on the lifeless mix that is Western style supermarkets. Pathetic.

Uh-huh. Same as it ever was. You were expecting something else?

Political ideologies and movements are quite akin to cult-like behaviour.

Yet, the second time around was highly questionable - and the manipulated/corrupted mechanics, thereof - as to if it was real. Recent historic perspectives will be quite variable as to the legitimacy of it all.

On the contrary, the talent pool is far from being shallow or limited. Plenty of qualified and competent folks afield, but the systems are purposely designed to align with the oligarchical elite and prevent anything "different" to be present - a is the case everywhere. Ever notice that it's the same circle [the world over] holding reigns of power cycle in and cycle out?

Distraction and misdirection.

Appears to me that all these surface rhetorical calculations were a pre-planned show for media, the public sphere and particular political circles. The hospital stays, supposed illness and surgeries, protected custody, two official sentence commutes which led to a partial pardon which will lead to the expected full amnesty before one can blink again. You don't have to be too much of a genius to understand all this and the arrangement agreed upon long before he reset foot upon Thai soil. Expecting the less than vulnerable Yingluck to follow suit before the year is out. It is what it is. Let's get over everything Shinawatra.......get back to our lives and much more important issues.

Just a sit in guised in misdirection. The real puppet master doesn't show his cards. .....and still most don't comprehend how things are done here, going on and on with such surface nonsense.
