d2b2 Posted February 19, 2018 Share Posted February 19, 2018 Just 5.7 per cent believed that legal procedures were carried out justly and transparently perhaps this represents the percentage of poll respondents who, by virtue of their standing, expect preferential treatment by the Justice process 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The survey just merely confirmed what we see regularly of the wealthy and powerful getting away with justice. The system is broken a long time ago. We don't need the survey to reinstate that reality. The coup was to do meaningful reforms like corruption of the justice system. It really has failed and exposes their hypocrisy. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Confuscious Posted February 19, 2018 Share Posted February 19, 2018 They (the people) don't know how difficult it is for the RTP to translate the documents in English with the use of Google Translate. It took them 5 years to translate a single page for Interpol. To be fair, it is not the fault of the justice system, but the fault of Google Translate and Google Maps.

wavemanwww Posted February 19, 2018 Share Posted February 19, 2018 Quote." Asked if they still felt confident in justice procedures, 71.7 per cent said their confidence was rather low . If this was an election and Prayut got that result he would say, ' amazing I hope I get that percentage whenever I choose to hold that election whenever pigs fly"! Thailand now No. 1, or near that, in world for corruption. Another Gold Medal after they got the gold for road deaths, pollution etc. In two years time another poll will be taken and the result might be 69% based on belief in Thai justice system. Prayut at that time, being 2020 and without still holding an election, will grandiose to the media and say, " my party is improving fairness and democracy by reducing the negative by 2.7% in just 2 years. and only was achieved by having me as a non elected Prime Minister".

Baerboxer Posted February 19, 2018 Share Posted February 19, 2018 3 hours ago, yellowboat said: This is why universal suffrage is so important. These gaping shortcomings can be addressed. Anything like this falls on deaf ears as it is not some positive economic report or a glowing food critique of street food. Now practical matters like this are trivialized and trivial matters gets little p's attention. It is hard to watch. Universal suffrage only fixes things if you can vote for politicians / political parties that are willing and motivated too fix those things. And sadly for the Thai people, neither of the main political parties are remotely interested as their sponsors, backers, and owner don't want any change.

Bartman1369 Posted February 19, 2018 Share Posted February 19, 2018 A justice system is only as good as the police force making the initial prosecution. When most offences can be "bought away" they never even reach the courts 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
