tracker1 Posted June 15, 2018 Share Posted June 15, 2018 The protesters should know not to trust the junta or the elite we all knew what was going to happen and they weren't going to abandon them ! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post ThreeEyedRaven Posted June 15, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted June 15, 2018 Well that is a fine state of affairs that shows Thailand for everything that it is. The PMs office rules that it shall remain uninhabited, but people move in anyway. Judicial Officers no less, with clearly no respect whatsoever for the law, who even though are there illegally, won't move out. Sends a wonderful message to the rest of the population. 9 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Lungstib Posted June 15, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted June 15, 2018 As we all know Thai law only applies to certain people. Obviously judges and their helpers are not included. The list of citizens above the law appears to be getting longer as military rule progresses. 11 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post cmsally Posted June 15, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted June 15, 2018 The establishment has exposed it's true colors probably without even realizing it. It has shown the non existence of the rule of law, this case being one of the most perfect examples. 12 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pookiki Posted June 15, 2018 Share Posted June 15, 2018 I have followed this case with much interest from the outset. One thing that I don't understand is what law, rule, or regulation allows/entitles certain government officials government to free housing? Is this the case for all judges?

simoh1490 Posted June 15, 2018 Share Posted June 15, 2018 It will be interesting to be a lawyer in Chiang Mai Province, the next time an encroachment case is brought by the government against say a resort or hotel owner...."precedent m'lud, the government said it is OK to encroach, I move to dismiss". 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cmsally Posted June 15, 2018 Share Posted June 15, 2018 Thai law doesn't seem to be bound by precedent. They will certainly be trying to ignore this case. the court is choosing to ignore the head of government. Or the government is using the judiciary as a buffer. Welcome to the twenty first century, where the gavel is used instead of the tank. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the PM were genuine and serious he would have pulled out his Article 44; but he didn't. He also reminded all parties to observe the law. Unfortunately for the protesters that might just be the sticking point in favour of the judges. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thaiguzzi Posted June 16, 2018 Share Posted June 16, 2018 What I don't get with these building plots here, and KPP and elsewhere, is why the kerfuffle once the project is finished or near finished? Why not demonstrate and complain at the beginning of these projects? Surely people notice something is amiss when bulldozers etc start clearing land?
