Future Forward Party members in Phuket protest Election Commission rulings

PHUKET: Some 20 members of the Future Forward Party (FFP) in Phuket staged a protest in front of the Phuket office of the Election Commission yesterday (Dec 25). The protesters even laid wreaths in front of the office to mark what they called “the death of justice”.

 

 

 

The protest follows the commission’s recent ruling to support having FFP leader Thanathorn Juangroongruangkit disqualified as a party list MP over his highly disputed holdings in a functionally defunct media company at the time of running for election.

 

The EC made its recommendation to the Constitutional Court to have Mr Thanathorn disqualified. The Constitutional Court made the disqualification formal on Nov 20.

Sums up Thai rule of law as well, all letter and no spirit of the law.  Thai courts fail to show harm.  If something is defunct, then it can be said to be extinct or no longer exists.  How is that illegal?

That would suggest it had been born first

Are they right? Or are they wrong?

 

It would seem a very simple question: were the media shares transferred before the deadline to do so?

 

Simple. But here there are no simple answers seemingly to even the simplest of questions.

 

Despite all the coverage, it has never been confirmed, or AFAIK, it hasn't. But with FFP concentrating on complaining about unfairness, demanding justice, and moaning about it being political, it seems the answer might not be one they'd like! If they were transferred why not prove it?
