Amnesty International Condemns Dissolution of Thailand’s Move Forward Party
A supporter of the Move Forward Party reacts at the party headquarters after the Constitutional Court ordered the dissolution of the party in Bangkok, Thailand, Wednesday, Aug. 7, 2024. (AP Photo/Sakchai Lalit) Amnesty International has strongly criticised the dissolution of Thailand's main opposition party, Move Forward, calling it a grave blow to human rights in the country. The condemnation comes after Thailand’s Constitutional Court decided to dissolve the party for proposing reforms, sparking concerns over freedom of expression and political repression. Amnesty International’s Senior Director, Deprose Muchena, voiced dismay at the court’s ruling, stating, "Dissolving the party, merely for advocating for reform, constitutes a serious violation of the rights to freedom of expression and association of lawmakers, who were simply performing their duty of proposing laws." Muchena added, "The authorities’ relentless harassment of the political opposition starkly contradicts Thailand's public commitment to human rights, especially as it seeks a seat on the UN Human Rights Council." The Move Forward party, which had garnered significant public support in recent years, was seen as a vital voice advocating for democratic reforms in Thailand. The court’s decision to dissolve the party has led to widespread outrage among its supporters. Thai Prime Minister Srettha Thavisin called for calm, urging all sides to accept the court’s decision. "I believe the Move Forward party has a plan and means to continue its political activities," the Prime Minister remarked, attempting to quell rising tensions. Meanwhile, student groups across Thailand have announced plans for rallies to protest against the court’s decision. The Department of Humanitarian and Human Rights Affairs of the Chulalongkorn University Student’s Club has organised a gathering at Pathumwan skywalk in Bangkok, set for 6 pm this evening. Additionally, law faculties at Thammasat and Chiang Mai Universities will hold rallies on their campuses, while students at Maha Sarakham University have planned a separate demonstration. As Thailand grapples with this political upheaval, the international community watches closely, concerned about the implications for democracy and human rights in the country. -- 2024-08-08 - Cigna offers a variety of health insurance plans designed to meet the minimum requirement for medical treatment coverage, with benefits reaching up to THB 3 million.

I was hoping to come to Thailand for at least 3 months this coming December, but will think twice if I don’t get insurance. I’m hoping my CC might be positive, it’s a Platinum so I have to call them tomorrow. I’m asking everyone I know here in France in my position. I’ve had no problem in the past, being age eligible, and stay in Jomtien 3 to 4 months.Apparently it’s the 70 cut off age the problem. -

Ex-Move Forward Members Set to Launch New Political Party
Former leader of Move Forward Party Pita Limjaroenrat talks to reporter with lawmakers from Move Forward Party during press conference at Move Forward Party headquarter in Bangkok, Thailand, Wednesday, Aug. 7, 2024. (AP Photo/Sakchai Lalit) Just hours after the Move Forward Party was dissolved by Thailand's Constitutional Court, its former key members announced that they will unveil a new party this Friday to continue their political efforts. Sirikanya Tansakun, deputy leader of the now-disbanded Move Forward, hinted that the new party might continue to address the controversial Article 112 of the Criminal Code, which led to Move Forward’s dissolution. She stressed that the court ruling does not explicitly ban amendments to the article. “Everyone believes that the article is problematic. But we need to discuss it in more detail when we move to our new home,” she said during a news conference following the court’s decision. Sirikanya is speculated to lead a backup political party, strategically prepared for such an eventuality. “We will move on and will not abandon the mission assigned to us by the people as long as they support us,” she stated. Before its dissolution, Move Forward had 148 MPs. Five, who were part of its executive committee, lost their MP status due to the court ruling. The future alignment of the remaining MPs remains uncertain, with some expected to join parties in the coalition government. Former party leader Chaithawat Tulathon, speaking at the press conference, described the court’s judgement as “setting a dangerous precedent for constitutional interpretation and laws.” He warned that the verdict might undermine the democratic system under the monarchy by transforming it. Chaithawat, along with 11 executive members, faces a 10-year political ban, including the party’s chief advisor, Pita Limjaroenrat. Despite his ban, Pita affirmed his commitment to political activism as a private citizen. “We may grieve today, but tomorrow we will channel our anger and energy into every polling booth,” he encouraged supporters who had gathered at the party’s headquarters. Many Move Forward supporters expressed their disappointment and anger at the court's decision. Pita reassured them, asserting, “We did nothing aimed at overthrowing or being hostile toward the democratic system as ruled by the court.” -- 2024-08-08 - Cigna offers a variety of health insurance plans designed to meet the minimum requirement for medical treatment coverage, with benefits reaching up to THB 3 million.

Unidentified Woman Found Dead on Kata Beach in Phuket
Why the hostility? My comment is not stupid, are you a juvenile, still at school? Look at the hate in your reply, if you are unable to reply with descency, keep your nose out, mind your own bloody business. Keyboard warriors, can't scroll down, they must be nasty. Are you one of the weirdos I was arguing with recently, saying that a human with XY chromosomes can be female? -
