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.

Isn't that lovely. Am really looking forward to 2 months of political advertising and news. Whoopee.

Hey Aqualung...let's hope it is productive and gets someone credible into the leadership positions....

"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.

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 -
