CityNews – The ruling Junta has filed charges against six protesters that rallied outside of Chiang Mai University calling for elections on February 14.

 

The Valentine’s Day protest was organised by the Liberal Assembly of Chiang Mai University for Democracy (LACMUD) to call for elections this year. The gathering violated the Junta’s order that prohibits political gatherings of more than five people.

The junta charges people for calling for elections after Prayut failed to meet his own latest election schedule announced to the international community last year. How is that action even aligned with Article 2 of the 2017 Constitution (and every constitution preceding it): "Thailand adopts a democratic regime of government ..."

To the degree that the junta seems to violate many tenants of its own-written constitution, maybe Article should read instead, "Thailand abhors a democratic regime of government ..."

Obviously meetings of the junta, led by its politician PM, don't count.
