More reasons to be suspicious as the EC again delay announcing the election results. Should be yesterday, then today at 2 and now Friday. A typical Prayut's style of promise and postponement.   

You got to be kidding ! That's just a load of ...

 

Anyway a telltale sign something is amiss is the exit poll. Yes those quite frequently are wrong, but this wrong, I don't think I have ever seen that happen.

 "no full official results until 9 May."  From the BBC website.  The fix is well and truly in.

About one day before the tanks are mobilized!

It is downright digraceful. And there seem to be clear evidence of cheating. Remember a member claiming they wouldn't do it. Yeah right !

[Briggsy]

The cycle continues. Those who have studied Thai history know that the military don't skulk back to the barracks until after the massacre typically on Ratchadamnoen or, more recently, Ratchadamri. It will come soon enough.

So, .......many more votes coming out of ballot boxes than went in ? And all for the Junta.

 

Pity they left all those rabbits behind. Could have made Thailand the bugs bunny hub.

Nah, I don't need to live in a perpetual circle-jerk where everyone thinks like me.

This is what a Japanese ballot box looks like .....nuff said...

 

 

[holy cow cm]

Null and void and do it again. What does the Junta have to be scared of it is a real election. New election no erection?

My wife and family are pro Prayut. Im having some fun trying to get her to give me a logical reason why this election should be viewed as free and fair. so far shes only thrown one heavy object at me.

Arriving in Bangkok 3 April. Normally stay downtown, but staying overnight at airport hotel to avoid any potential problems before onward travel to Chiang Rai. Regardless of result, hope all is peaceful for everyone's sake.

Nope, there will rioting in the streets, buildings on fire, troops and police shooting everybody, airport will be closed so you won't have to worry about anything. 

You tink to mut. 

[ShortTimed]

the guy did everything by the rule (555)...the way  he/they changed the constitution back in 2017 it's impossible for anybody else to have a go, he's there for life ....it's like China, they also changed their constitution, now Xi can stay in power for life

 

Looking at the US example, there can be quite a bit of downside with a 4-year election cycle. It results in an absence of harmony.

 

Why do so many here voice displeasure with him as PM?

are you new here or do you live outside Thailand, that's the only plausible reason to ask these type of questions

New here but what has he done that is bad for Thailand.

I heard about a rice scheme and a corrupt sister/brother living in exile.

But I have not heard any similar wrongdoings by Prayuth. What has he done that is harmful to Thailand?

He has made life harder for farangs in the form of VISAs and border runs. Does this fuel some of the dislike?

[ShortTimed]

Come on, somebody must be able to name atleast one thing?

 

Or is it just a healthy dislike of authority? If thats it then I am on board.

 

I just like to know why I should dislike someone. ;-)

stick around for a while and you will judge by yourself

That might very well be true but it does seem odd that nobody can name anything.

I have read about the rice scheme. That is a very obvious case of corruption. I thought there must be something similar for future PM Prayuth?

wait and see then you can judge by yourself if you like or dislike somebody or something, why should you get somebody's opinion on liking or disliking someone, people have different opinions and different tastes, what for one may look white maybe for you it will look grey, be patient and wait, don't jump into conclusions, remember there are always 2 versions to a fact... example, I don't like Kim Jung Un but Trump loves him

This is my first time hearing alot of this slang or common references from other countries...so I know you said something good but I don’t know what it is.

Ah well, I thought I was asking a pretty simple question but its nothing important to me.

I will catch grief for this but he just looks like a decent guy.

Everybody please return to your earlier jokes. Far more fun to read.

The problem with him is, that he has no clue on business.

About what is is doing wrong… maybe you should check about "The watch was a gift" as an example

Well, it's 4pm now and still no announcement from the EC. They managed to countr 94% of the votes in 6 hours. But since 8.30am this morning haven't been able to count the last 6%???

Because the 90% were counted 6 months ago !

NCPO and Article 44 are always good for morale too.
