Policemen and businessmen.....they both know that Prayut has done nothing and will do nothing to stop bribes, corruption etc, so, of course, they're happy. Be careful, Steven, you get known by the company you keep. Edited June 7, 2019 by newatthis grammar 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In Steven's world the remainder wanted to vote for Prayuth but voted incorrectly by mistake. That's what happens when you have a picture of prayuth above you bed to comfort you. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe this also, and I don't believe a word of farang talk on tv, as I know most people are ok with the current PM. They just want to get on with their daily lives and not worry about political embroilment. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cygan Posted June 7, 2019 Share Posted June 7, 2019 (edited) I am neither Thai or Expat ,but have followed closely the events that have unfolded in the arena of Thai politics and am extremely saddened for the people of Thailand. There is no description for their governance now they are a mixture of Aristocracy, Plutocracy, Oligarchy and Dictatorship and the sad thing is the road back to any form of Democracy will now be long,difficult and costly and it is never bloodless, ask Madame Guillotine. It was once said that you can sometimes determine a mans character by HOW he smiles,but then some men never smile , they only grin. I will leave you to draw your own conclusions.

This is common sense. Also, if you want some semblance of the truth, don’t ask retired police officers and factory owners. Ask the people at the bottom who form the majority of Thais. Ask the people who's opinions don't matter, Oh please, another Chardonnay Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wreckingcountry Posted June 8, 2019 Share Posted June 8, 2019 Only 30% fell for the con man ! But of course the wealthy upper class in Thailand don’t care who is PM or the Gov in Thailand as long as they leave them and their wealth alone !
