As in this quote....."Four wishes of the people"?....Since when are these electoral minority coup-mongers and their shadowy supporters "The people"?........The people spoke on Feb. 2nd. and he is so afraid of what they said. He wants to 'deep-six' their opinion.
The people (most of them) voted already.
43 million (roughly) of the population were eligible to vote, yet only 20 million (roughly) did so out of a population of 70 million or so. That's less than 30% of the entire population. And (let's say) PT got around 50% of that vote, it means PT are only approved by around 15% of the population.
Is my maths correct? Did "the people" really vote for PT this time around?
1. The people were denied the opportunity to vote for the Dems by... the Dems.
2. There are not 70 million voters in TL
Some people where denied voting but NOT in PT strongholds. Think about it.

Scary that these kind of idiots have so much power.

He claimed that both the Election Commission and the Council of State had agreed that the caretaker government has the authority to secure loans for the rice-pledging scheme and that was not a violation of Article 181 of the Constitution
Really? I thought PT said that because they are the CARETAKER government, they couldn't borrow money. Which is Suthep's fault (according to PT). Interesting
He said the caretaker government was ready to sign the loan agreements immediately once they propose appropriate lending rates.
But he said he could not reveal their names on fear that anti-government protesters could again go to blockade these banks if they have the information.Next week he will say: The banks where ready to give money but the PRDC went to the banks and now the banks cancelled the loans.

If these ex Dem MP's had put as much energy into analysing what the Thai people wanted from a government, they could have been that government by now.
Still, I'm sure they're happy in their new jobs as rabble rousers
Hahahaha
I have another one: If Nathawut would have put as much energy into solving the farmers problems as he had put into brainwashing the farmers back in 2010, maybe today the farmers have some money to eat. Maybe...

"....the two policemen were legally conducting an intelligence-gathering mission."
AKA Spying. My condolences to the spies for their injuries. Go into the jungle, you may get bitten.
More praise for violence, ratcatcher?
How many people are killed by the protestors since the protests started a few months ago?

First:
BANGKOK: -- A pair of undercover policemen have been hospitalised after they were tortured by anti-government protesters on Chaeng Wattana Road, authorities said.
Then:
A group of anti-government guards also allegedly assaulted the 2 policemen before they eventually handed the pair back to the police force in the evening.They where tortured right? Typical Khoasad Red propaganda.

What else do you expect Tea Banh and Thaksin's buddy Yuthasak to say.....

It's clear that anyone around here who wants people to be elected is in contempt of court.
Mr Witthaya has also made known that the agency is speeding up its investigation into the impeachment case against 383 senators and MPs for their support of the Senate composition constitutional amendment. The case is set to be concluded early in MarchOr the target of violent attack at polling stations by violent fascist goons.
When's Suthep going to be charged?
A Thai I know pretty well explained the whole of Suthep's land and palm oil scandal that in 1995 brought down the DP government.
So the NACC can be reminded how they are publicly regarded for their attention to duty, here it is in a nutshell.
Suthep started out with two plots of land. Suthep sold three of them to his publicly-listed company, using letters of credit opened by his brother-in-law at the bank, then executed a debt / equity swap with an unpublished general offer so that he got all four plots of land back, with a tax deduction for maintaining five plots of land. The palm oil rights of six plots of land were transferred via a Brunei intermediary to a Russian company secretly owned by the majority shareholder, who sold the rights to all seven plots of land back to the listed company. The annual report said that the company owned eight plots of land, with an option on one more. So Suthep sold the two plots of land because the spirit house lady said the karma was bad.
We are talking about rice and the disappearance of THB 780,000,000,000 under Yingluck's watch. I know it hurts but let's stay on topic or keep quiet.

Total admission of the fact that the Coup is dead.
Long live the weasle Judicial Coup.... 5 rice story of the day is it. Great the media really helping out with the Power grab.
Won't get away with it though.... its 2 decades out of date doing this!!
In most normal countries with a real judicial system, the members talking about the case in public like this would automatically have the case thrown out... Which is what needs to happen to this dumb case.
-THB 780,000,000,000 GONE.
-No money for the farmers (THB 130,000,000.000 still outstanding).
-Nobody knows how much rice there is.
-Nobody knows how much is rotten.
-No figures released since they started this scheme 2.5 years ago.
-Farmers committing suicide out of desperation.
-IMF, Worldbank and WTO have repeatedly called on PT to revise the scheme.
-The scheme has world-wide attention now among media.
-Dozens of articles about it. (basically amazed that Yingluck can get away with it for so long)
AND Yinglcuk is the chair of the committee.
In which democracy do you get away with this? Please enlighten us instead of preaching that coup story again.

Addressing supporters at the protest site, protest leader Suthep Thaugsuban described her refusal to meet farmers reflected how cruel heart she has towards the people who are her party’s political base.
The farmers should understand by now that The Shins will only meet them when they need them.

I find it incredible that YIngluck hasn't met with even one of the farmers' representatives on even one single occassion. She is Chairwoman and PM. Insult to injury,
You should understand that Yingluck will meet farmers when she needs them. When the farmers need Yingluck, she won't meet them.

Maybe he makes merit for his hand to heal?

Thaksin hasn't been this close to Thailand than when - well, since he was there last, or the time before, or in Cambodia - inside or outside of cabinet. The journey over the bridge is quite brief, but he'll never, ever make it. Because although he has a fondness for making merit, he's seriously scared of jail. That's about the extent of his conviction. So there you have it - comfortably nestled in countries which have almost no human rights. He's right at home.
If you think thaksin hasn't been back to Thailand since the start of his self imposed exile then you don't really know much about Thailand
Care to elaborate?
Maybe he has seen Thaksin in his dreams?

And then he had tea with Aung San Suu Kyi.
Which was nice.
Sure ! it is there right also and real people fighting for democracy have to join...
The majority of foreign governments do not follow Suthep, but yes...... the followers and sure the "farang" lovers of suthep believe they know better than the majority .
No foreign government has said anything critical about Suthep's anti corruption movement. That says enough. The rice scam has put the Shins firmly on the map as one of those dangerous and corrupt families that don't give a s..t about human rights. Money that could have been paid to the farmers end up in the Shin clan's pockets. How can you do that one might ask knowing that the farmers are suffering because of this. Slipping 18 spots (from 84-102) 1 year on the global corruption index says it all.
BTW, which form of democracy are you referring to? The one without checks and balances? Or the one without accountability?

Yes Yingluck, how much was the down payment paid to Shenzhen Yitao Intelligent Control before the closed down? Yes correct, THB 800,000,000. And where is that money know? I think we know the answer.

"If the PM wants to safeguard democracy as she had said, she must accept the four wishes of the people," Abhisit said."
Same old, same old from someone frothing at the mouth about wanting to be PM. but rejected at every turn...A one-trick pony Elitist, thinking he doesn't need to reform himself or his party, so the electorate must.
As in this quote....."Four wishes of the people"?....Since when are these electoral minority coup-mongers and their shadowy supporters "The people"?........The people spoke on Feb. 2nd. and he is so afraid of what they said. He wants to 'deep-six' their opinion.
Follow the bouncing ball of all this coup-intentioned noise - anti-amnesty stuff...then... anti-Thaksin opionating...then... anti-electoral activism...then...reform before election.... now.... nullify, the election......What next? ....At least they are consistent in one thing....The underpinning of it all. Coup-intentionism by those who cannot be elected by "The People"
The most pitiful thing however is all this self-righteous, holier-than-thou bleating about 'reform'....If their intentions were honorable, they would take their opinionating about this to Parliament....But they know they will always be the minority there, as long as they don't conform themselves to the wishes of "The people"....Their entitlement arrogance doesn't allow them to do that...In their 'humble' opinion, "The people" need to 'conform' themselves to their enlightened Political insights.....
Next time I will tell you what I really think

Hahahaha. These people are living in lala land.
Note to these numpties.
The Indian embassy cannot grant the right to stay in Thailand. You need to petition the Thai government to discuss this issue.
The Democrats don't even know their own country's Immigration laws. What did you expect?
You really have no idea what you are talking about. You just want to make smart..s comments in order to get some easy likes. I have seen it in more threads.
Enjoy it while it lasts.

How many propagandist rice articles a day are the Suthep media pumping out?
No news here, even the farmers' buffaloes are smart enough to have seen the mob closing down the offices and banks that could have helped them.
Was the Chinese who cancelled when Suthep got his courts into start meddling. They are more than prepared to let the farmers go to the wall if they believe they can make some political capital out of it or tempt some int joining them... Hence the blitzkreig of propagana on the subject from his media cronies.
All this news on a day that Sutheps mob probably shrank to under 100 on one of the busiest mob days of the week. Don't suppose it's news though really if you own all the media and are heavily invested in this goon and his coup.
Thais have good memories and even Suthep was lamenting that BKK people ignored him over the Phuket land scam for many years.. Until now actually when he started the coup rolling again for them. They know a bad un...
Everybody else has seen the shrinking crowds and the latte break and evening rush hour protesters.
Sure - if left alone PTP could have pushed the amnesty bill through and the 2.2 trillion loan, released the 350 bullion water management budget and hey presto! Everyone happy.
Oh dear, you mean someone would have to pay all that money back? Not the Shins though.
Correct. That is what Yingluck was banging on. Just keep on borrowing and use the money as they wish. Just keep spending to stay alive. Paying back all that money is for the next next generation. The Shin will not get poorer out of this I can assure you.
-
I can agree that Yingluck should be sued for negligence of her duty as PM.
Her government should also be prosecuted for stealing the rice money if it can be proved.
Both sides are trying to destroy each other. This is a good move by Suthep.
I am not surprised if Yingluck tries to counter with nasty tactics to stop Suthep.
However, she does not have a lot of options left other than capturing the protest leaders.
We will see the development. It is getting twisted.
I feel sorry for the farmers.
They are the real victims and the government should take care of the issue ASAP.
Yingluck's strategy is to create a culture of fear. Hun Sen will be proud of her.

I hope that the farmers get paid soon. This is Bulls*&t, leaving the farmers hanging like this, after promising them the money for their rice, to be paid last October.
If not for the current political impasse, I'm fairly certain that payments would have been forthcoming. As it is, the caretaker govt's hands are tied and no one has any solution other than saying that they should have been paid already (which incidentally, is NOT a solution).
Some will undoubtedly say that the simplest solution is for YL to resign and magically, everything will be fine again. Unfortunately, it is not as simple as that. This is a high stakes game and only a naive child would think that that is a feasible solution.
That is what Red leader Weng wants us to believe. Fact is that you cannot keep on borrowing and borrowing and borrowing......without return. I think you can understand that too.
Why are they not selling the 18,000,000,000 Kg they have in stock one would ask themselves (maybe because they are only interested to sell to countries that "can do" double deals in order for the Shins to have some pocket money?)
Please understand that before the protests started they already:
1. couldn't sell the rice for months (hence the large stock pile).
2. couldn't borrow for months (hence the outstanding payments since September).
In any other democracy a government that spends THB 780,000,000,000 (and still has THB 130,000,000,000 in outstanding payments) without any transparency (no official figures released by Yingluck government since the scheme started) would have been punished heavily.
Please mention 1 organization either domestic of global that believes this rice scheme should continue. Furthermore, ONLY 18% of all money spend goes to farmers.
Yes, Thaksin played a high stakes game and he lost it. His puppet sister should pay for it. Sadly it has put many poor farmers in misery. Many have committed suicide.
Meanwhile, Thailand's commercial banks have declined to lend the Finance Ministry $4 billion to pay the farmers because of legal concerns and opposition by employees and unions.
From The Nation: (http://www.nationmultimedia.com/politics/Farmers-raise-pressure-30226281.html
"We are worried about the law. Whether the government can get additional loans under law is still unclear. We are also worried about bank depositors, who feel discontented about this matter," he said.
From The Sydney Morning Herald: (http://www.smh.com.au/world/rice-debacle-could-spell-the-end-of-thai-government-20140207-hvblv.html)
Many economists, academics and public figures have criticised the scheme, whose losses threaten to downgrade Thailand’s credit rating.
Economists estimate it costs more than $9 billion a year to run the scheme – about 2.5 per cent of gross domestic product.
The fiasco began with the government’s attempt two years ago to manipulate the world’s rice market.

40+ attacks on the protestors over the past 3 months, but still not a single arrest...
Yeah but when you look at the CCTV pictures it looks like the PDRC is doing it too themselves for some publicity - Can't arrest the home team
What a nasty comment. Mind to share some images or is it just some more red propaganda.

When oh when will the shinamafia realise their game is over? Soon it will be time for them to explain their doings in the courts.
This image was taken 2 weeks ago when Thaksin was in Singapore. He doesn't look like a winner IMO. I hope he realizes that too and stops creating a culture of fear.

Reforming the mostly post 2006 coup, military hand picked Constitutional Court and the EC should be first on the list... two of the most rotten, bias groups, they are meant to serve the law and the people, instead they serve only powerful interests.

Sonthiyarn's family accuses Thai police of ill-treatment
in Thailand News Headlines
Posted
Daruni Chuenruethainaitham, Sonthiyarn's sister said that police over-reacted and abused their power even though they presented a search warrant approved by Nakhon Pathom Provincial Court. She said heavily armed police climbed over the wall to the house without ringing the bell and were rude to them. She would file a complaint against police for their "ill-treatment".
Thiwa said she was sleeping in the early morning with her daughter when police climbed into the house. She quickly locked the house and only allowed uniformed police to enter.
I still remember Yingluck preaching with tears in her eyes that people should leave her family alone. "Please respect my son and leave him out of this".
