Your asking for a friend, right?

PS, in the land of coups, ousting the military once and for all may be too optimistic until a larger proportion of Thai society changes further. Don't forget, as evidenced by this impasse, the following description is still applicable to a certain degree: Thailand: A Feudal Patronage society masquerading as a Constitutional Monarchy

My initial reaction on seeing the news was exactly like the majority of knee-jerk comments here. However, after I read PTP proposals I started to form the same opinions as you wrote above. To further quote you: "This might actually be some magnificent political maneuver to oust the military once and for all. Absolutely intriguing politics this is on a grand scale. "

What about that place on Raum Rudi that similar legal problems /decisions years ago? What is it's status? I doubt it got torn down.

Cop suspended over death of CMU mascot dog (bangkokpost.com) Cop suspended over death of CMU mascot dog PUBLISHED : 3 JUN 2020 AT 18:06 WRITER: POST REPORTERS Tia Morchor, a beloved mascot dog of Chiang Mai University, is seen on campus. (Photo from Tia Morchor Facebook account) A police officer has been suspended as an investigation continues into the mysterious death of Tia Morchor, a famous dog beloved of Chiang Mai University (CMU) students and alumni. Watchdog Thailand posted a Facebook message saying the Royal Thai Police Office had suspended an officer and launched a disciplinary investigation. The message attributed the information to Pol Lt Gen Kittarath Punphet, a senior officer who reports to national police commander Pol Gen Chakthip Chaijinda. The advocacy group praised the decision as a milestone in an attempt to unveil the killers of Tia Morchor. The group indicated there could be more than one person involved in the case as the sacked officer was called “the first suspect”. ADVERTISEMENT No details of the suspect were released but Thairath reported earlier he was a 27-year-old police corporal in the Border Patrol Police unit based in San Sai district of Chiang Mai province. He was charged with theft, torturing animals and disposing of the carcass of an animal, according to Thairath. Thai PBS reported on Wednesday the suspect claimed he took the dog for a pleasure drive but it was run over by a vehicle. Watchdog Thailand said on Wednesday another suspect could face an arrest warrant from Bhubing Rajanives police station in Chiang Mai, the station that has jurisdiction in the case. Tia Morchor leads new students on a traditional walk from the campus to the top of Doi Suthep. (Photo from Tia Morchor Facebook account) The dog went missing from the campus on May 4 and its body was found in roadside jungle behind Rajamangala University of Technology Lanna on May 7. Footage from CCTVs both inside and outside the CMU campus showed the dog being driven on a motorcycle on the night of May 4. Tia Morchor is a darling of CMU students, past and present, along with staff members. One of its well-known trademark activities was to lead new students on a long walk up the Doi Suthep mountain to pay respects to the temple. The dog's age was believed to be eight or nine. The friendly dog was first spotted on the campus in 2014, and was seen there constantly until its recent disappearance. Tia Morchor was believed to stay at a house near the university at first, but was then given an official home at the Science Faculty. It roamed everywhere and was beloved by everybody. The dog was so popular that it has its own Facebook page, tiadogcmu, and Twitter account, @tiadogcmu. The canine inspired CMU to launch a project to manage and take care of all dogs around the sprawling campus. The cause of Tia Morchor's death has yet to be conclusively determined. A preliminary autopsy conducted by the university's Animal Hospital found that it was hit by a large vehicle, suggesting that it was an accident. But another detailed probe showed the dog might have been killed deliberately. Flowers are laid at the place where the dog was buried on the Chiang Mai University campus. (Photo from Tia Morchor Facebook account) Animal rights activists later sought help from the Royal Thai Police Office in Bangkok, urging transparency in a case they believed was connected to at least one police officer. Fans of Tia Morchor flooded Watchdog Thailand's Facebook page with comments after it posted the news of the police officer's suspension. They demanded legal action against anyone responsible for the death, and posted fond remembrances. “We won’t see Tia on the next trip up Doi Suthep,” bibi wrote in a message on the dog’s Twitter account. “Love and miss Tia forever,” a person named Wassana Cleary wrote on its Facebook account.

เตี้ย มช. เปิดหลักฐานสำคัญปิดคดีปริศนา ยกระดับกฎหมายทารุณหมาจร (thairath.co.th) This article says that the culprit did not confess (if true, I stand corrected), but that evidence showed that he did it.

There was an extensive search for Tia until his body was found. I think it was disposed of in a ditch on a road not far from campus. If I remember correctly of the CMU forensic analysis of Tia's body, it showed that his body was cruelly treated /tortured, to include being shot, prior to his death.

Tia was intentionally killed. The culprit admitted it & supposedly claimed he was asked (hired?) by a CMU prof to do it. Students really upset, animal rights group and citizens gathering at police station near campus.

Tia's grave on CMU campus. Tia running with the students near Wat Doi Suthep. He was greatly loved by all the students, and they were heartbroken over the incident. An angry student rumor is that a well-placed untouchable (& therefore unpunished) professor was behind the hiring of the young, enlisted cop to do a hit job on Tia (motive - speculation). Thia Mor Chor pronounced Tia Maw Chaw is simply Tia MC (Tia Maha Witialai Chiang Mai, Tia Chiang Mai University). His legs were short, thus the name Tia (short). He was simply lovingly referred to as "Tia".

Rhetorical question. With the current Constitution & an appointed Senate, it absolutely still applies.

Just a few of many I have. I hesitated to post more for fear they would just be taken down.

19 may 2010 - if I remember correctly over a hundred people killed.

Remember 19 May 2010 the government crackdown after lengthy protests in Lumpini Park. Tires burning outside my condo on Rama IV rd.

Does this description of 20 years ago still apply? Thailand: A Feudal Patronage Society Masquerading as a Constitutional Monarchy

The cause of this huge discrepancy between electoral results and the current standoff is a Constitution with an unelected Senate, both of which were installed by a military coup. The root cause of this can perhaps, at least in part, be traced back to the Thai historical traditional cultural acceptance of Patronage (with the monarchy at the root of that). When will the Thai public finally recognize what is holding them back, move into the modern world culturally, and stand up against such an absurdity?

Oh ok. I thought I had talked to one person in Pattaya that just arranged it all with Jomtien immigration. Perhaps he used a visa agency.

In order to rid yourself of that "insurance mafia" why did you not just discuss with Immigration converting from that Non Imm "O-A" Visa to a Non Imm "O" visa" a long time ago?

You have a beautiful family. Good for you, and the birds.

I Apologize for not being up to date on this case. Two of the suspects already confessed to what? Just negligence or something criminal? Quote: "Previously, suspects Tanuthaphat “Poh” Lertwittayawiset and Paiboon “Robert” Trikanjananun had confessed their involvement."

Yes, that's it.
