Phalang Pracharat campaign trucks tour Bangkok

By The Nation

 

 

Phalang Pracharat leaders paid respect to to sacred spirits at their head office on Saturday before sending out campaign trucks to seek support on the day before the election on Sunday.

 

Phalang Pracharat leader Uttama Savanayana and party secretary general Sontirat Sontijirawong led Bangkok candidates and other leading members to pay respect to the spirit shrine at the party shortly after 8am.

 

At 9am, all the leading members went onto the campaign trucks and left the party's head office, heading to the Chana Songkram (Winning the Battle) Temple to pray for victory.

 

They then left the temple, heading to the Democracy Monument to take group photos.

The campaign trucks then separated into two processions. The first one was led by Uttama to campaign at major spots on the Bangkok side, including the Victory Monument and Siam Square.

 

The second procession, led by Sontirat, campaigned on the Thonburi side.

They managed to avoid a collision, unlike the one in Phrae yesterday.

Maybe all the other drivers in Bangkok felt 'intimidated' by them, 'steering clear' at all costs?

Oh the irony !!!

Had a cavalcade of four dressed up pick-ups touting a local candidate cruise through my mooban yesterday afternoon. Unlike previous elections they did so without any music or speeches blasting out so that's an improvement over past elections ????

And who they praying to .? Is it Bud' .? Hasn't Bud' gotta remain impartial in this sort of thing .. And what if the other lot do a double pray up will Bud' be more inclined to grant them Victory .. Sounds like Bud's gonna be stuck t'wixt a rock and a hard place deciding who to back .. Oh and while they are praying put one in for the truck's brakes and wheels ( not coming off ) ..
