hotchilli Posted September 14, 2018 Share Posted September 14, 2018 The road map to democracy dictated by the NCPO has never been this clear, despite the junta continuously promising over the nearly five years since the 2014 coup to return power to the people. If it is delayed anymore maybe the "people of Thailand" will wake up and realise they have the power now to change the leadership! No government can deny a whole population.. unless they want civil unrest or worse ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fforest1 Posted September 14, 2018 Share Posted September 14, 2018 5 hours ago, Eligius said: Yawn, yawn This is all so tedious. Do they really think we are little kids - jumping up and down, crying out: 'Oh weeeeeee! There is going to be an election. Now we will have democracy again. Yeah!'. There will be NO GENUINE election. Even so, the fake one will be delayed yet again. The very fact that the junta hold complete and undiminished power right up until the moment that a new 'government' is sworn in - and can even cancel the results of any election they don't like - says it all. Do people really think that with such massive, god-like power in their hands, the junta will not massively cheat? Of course they will. That is ALL they know how to do. Don't people get it yet? Do people really think criminals will suddenly change their spots and stripes and become honest men?! Look: there is NOT GOING TO BE ANY GENUINE AND FAIR ELECTION. It's all utter nonsense, pretence and balderdash. Thailand 4.0 is all that is important to them...And not having a elected government is standing in the way of Thailand 4.0...So a election must be held...The election will be a complete fraud but it does not matter...The world will say Thailand has a elected government now and Thailand 4.0 can advance...

But they'd had an election the day before and he had got more votes than there were voters and had to stay behind to sort out the 'misunderstanding'. And we - the celebrity and I - had to take THAI instead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
