All posts discussing each other and not the thread topic have been removed.

Stop it now!

And nothing much about aggressive foreign mafia at all.

Pointless.

Since when did Thailand have secondary provinces? Do I live in one? Where are the primary provinces?

What was her exact question?  

I would far more like to know this than read weak 'watch' jokes.

How did the Thai government lose this money? Surely King Power and AOT, if anyone.

It would be a lot easier to trace and punish him if his face had not been deleted.

What is the point?

Evidence-based investigations sound like a good idea. What are the other kind of investigations, do they ignore evidence? 

Don't forget the 'brain based learning' initiative for schools a few years back,.

Earlier this year as part of a family outing by van we visited a waterfall near Phetchabun. Price for farang was 400 baht. Only there for 30 minutes, nothing else to see. Of course i didn't pay farang price, just pulled my hat down and said 'Khon thai'. Everybody laughed.

Only way to do it in Lieland.

Any news on the opening of a new Zoo in Bangkok to replace the one that was closed for 'more important' purposes?

Or the welfare of the animals that were moved out?

that's because it is. anything older than 700 years old in Thailand is usually Khmer, Mon, or Burmese. 

But the typical Thai ego believe that it belongs to " Thai" culture since it was produced on their soil regardless of origin. 

And if it was still abroad it would encourage interest in Thailand. 'Soft power' anyone?

I see lots of taxi-no-meter blocking the streets all the time, and 99% of the time the police do nothing about it. 

One of the most obvious is outside the Banglamphu/ Khaosan Police Station.

It seems obvious to me who didn't want Pita as PM and change certain LM laws, least any criticism may be allowed.   He is the one it seems to me who is pulling all the strings. 

I would agree if I thought he was capable of being the brains behind it all. So who is it pulling his strings?

He could have a word with them himself while they are all sitting around the cabinet table.

Abhisit Vegjjajiva ex PM was born in Newcastle UK, don't recall them mudslinging about that

And the most revered King of all was born in Boston, USA, I believe.

It's not a coup when given the nod and acceptance from the top. 

We know what you mean.  But it is difficult to think the skills to manage what has been happening come from the absolute top.

Who are the people behind it?

If a democratic country has election results disallowed that is a coup, but judicial rather than army this time.

What is needed is a catalyst  such as occurred in Tunisia.

 

One apparently  small event can rapidly develop into a people's uprising that sweeps away the old school in short order.

 

The complacency of the old powers and their placed men in the judicial system assume that they will always be able to suppress popular opinion by the tried and tested methods.

 

When the fall inevitability comes it won't  be pretty.

 

Democracy Monument seems to stand in the way of developments wanted by 'much revered people.'  It's unnoticed  demolition in the middle of the night could cause unrest.

Or the imminent judicial cancellation of the Move Forward Party could do it first.

Or lethargy could continue.

The party can and most probably will reincarnate, the banning of party execs however may be more problematic for them.

More problematic is that they have not been allowed to win.  They have won already and ridiculous claims that necessary reform is labelled as insurrection and overthrowing a government is the current state of play.
