snoop1130 Posted December 11, 2018 Share Posted December 11, 2018 Banners fly as Thai politics takes first breath since 2014 By Pravit Rojanaphruk, Senior Staff Writer A banner announcing the candidacy for Sira Jenjaka of the Palang Pracharat Party was noticed by Thai PBS reporter Yanee Waikru on Tuesday afternoon in Bangkok. Photo: Yanee_ThaiPBS / Twitter BANGKOK — Not long after the junta lifted its ban on politics Tuesday, a campaign banner for one candidate had already appeared in Bangkok. The pro-junta Palang Pracharat Party, which supports Prayuth’s return to the premiership, became the first party known to exercise newly returned political freedoms with several banners erected in the Chaeng Wattana district, as noticed by a Thai PBS reporter. Online, members of the Democrat Party seized the occasion to call attention to social media pollson party policy.

yellowboat Posted December 12, 2018 Share Posted December 12, 2018 "Nutta is also concerned the election won’t be free and fair." Depends who is winning. The junta will not allow a repeat of the last election. Without people like Nutta, Thailand would be doomed. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dcnx Posted December 12, 2018 Share Posted December 12, 2018 Does anyone actually think there’s going to be a fair election? This will be rigged every step of the way. A media circus and the people will choose a Junta mouthpiece if not old swollen face himself. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Interesting to note, I don't believe she and her closest [and famed] activist associates have not publicly demonstrated support for any political parties/movements.......with the exception of Khun Rome, who has jumped on the TP-splinter group bandwagon. Love Nut for her general persistence and strong disposition - Edited December 13, 2018 by zzaa09 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
