Is this the famous 20 year Prayat Chan-o-cha National Strategy which those who disagree with it will be thrown in jail because he has it written into law. Reminds of the Elton John song..."Madman Across the Water".

I think it may be a tight vote, this could go either way.

20 year road map enforcable by the junta even if incumbent ! marvelous

Assuming they can wake everyone up.

 

 

20 year strategy=obey.

Thailand now joke!

Two keys word mentioned by Wissanu. Duty-bound as against legally bound and 'can be amended'. A big step back from NLA member Wallop Tankananuwat statement of criminal prosecution for not following plan. Not sure if the junta realize the folly and worthlessness of a 20 years plan or someone stop this junta from trying to impose their will on future governments and nip their power.

Besides circus music, all I hear is that song road no nowhere playing over and over again. 

 

Any plan for the public not forged through debate and scrutiny is worthless as it does not serve the people.

The original plan was they will have public hearing of the draft. Didn’t happen. As you said, NLA is not a representative of the people and therefore lose legitimacy of any plan for the people; period.
