hotchilli Posted January 30, 2019 Share Posted January 30, 2019 Thailand is slipping back in time, just like Myanmarese & Cambodian leaders think they are the only ones who can dictate to a country from within a uniform. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The law doesn’t say I have to leave. I can stay until the new government is in place.” If he loses, which I doubt, I find the last sentence particularly worrying.

Don't worry, I got my Voodoo doll out and I'm giving it a few pricks... A bit like Chanocha's been doing to Thailand for four years really... giving it a few pricks.

You can bet he is contemplating this move. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chama Posted January 30, 2019 Share Posted January 30, 2019 17 hours ago, webfact said: They said the government could conveniently use the government’s major “Pracharat” scheme, which shares the same keyword as the pro-junta party “Phalang Pracharat”, to gain popularity over other parties. This criticism was especially severe when the government handed out cash to low-income earners as a New Year gift. The name use was pretty well thought out and the use of tax payer funds for vote buying should be pretty illegal! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I get the feeling this will be his concession speech too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
