Popular Post Michael Norman Posted March 1, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted March 1, 2020 As I told my Thai wife, PM doesn't care about the people except that he and his cronies make money off Thais' backs. Unless the protesters have some actual way to remove him and his cronies the PM isn't going anywhere. Also, the PM doesn't care what the international community has to say as long as he has the support of China which he does. China is enjoying the meddling of the international community in both Thai and the Philippines internal affairs because such meddling is pushing such countries to China. Truth sucks sometimes but it's the truth. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Besides that's just an excuse, what about the other 50 million what's there excuse? But this is Thailand...so no one cares what`s the theory and in her case the Royal family is involved as biggest stakeholder. Would you throw away one decade of hard work, insisting that your freedom of speech is your right? Surely not! Only people who have the financial background and power don`t care about the consequences. That`s why I am happy that this demonstrations are happening! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Thingamabob Posted March 1, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted March 1, 2020 Shades of '73, '76 and, to some extent, '92. I fear, when it comes, the put-down will be brutal. This is nothing like the red shirt/yellow shirt confrontation. This is far more serious. 6 million plus young people have been disenfranchised. We can only hope that a peaceful solution can somehow be found. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SupermarineS6B Posted March 1, 2020 Share Posted March 1, 2020 As i said a few days ago..... The youth in Thailand are a lot more savvy now and as we've seen there was a large majority behind the youthful opposition leader, unfortunately democracy is only a word and by the looks of things there'll be a lot of young people getting damaged by the benevolent current "Leadership"...... It's coming...... Just look through the history that's available and you'll see what's coming in the future........ 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The spark has been lit and I hope all of you guys are prepared to go as far as bugging out if necessary. There is no one to stop the shooting if it starts, and there are more players in the game. Im very worried for Thailand, a place th at I truly love and where I have spent a lot of time in. Even here in Siem Reap its fun and has its advantages over Thailand, but it isnt Thailand. Its sad and I hope you all get by OK. Just be prepared...for anything. I for one wouldnt be keeping many assets other than the bare minimum in Thailand if you can swing it. If you are "stuck", register with your embassy and buy gold. I ran my place down in Bkk, i basically use it as storage now as it's cheaper than storage.... I stay in Penang as much as i can but i can see very black clouds on the horizon, but the more disturbing fact is that there's no one to call time out when it gets nasty, like back in 92........ just sit back and watch the massacre........ it's coming.... Hopefully the West will reign in the dogs...... 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They were allowed to protest and disrupt Bangkok for weeks. Being allowed to protest, not what they expected and wanted. In the end tired of waiting for an excuse, they just started themselves and burned down Central and some other places. Hmmm, great alternative, lets vote and fight for another billionaire who will toss us a few peanuts while stuffing his own pockets. And like all these protests for "democracy" the protesters have zero consideration that their "protests" disrupt the economy scares away tourists and busineses and if they think yr busines is not in line with them they wont hesitate to smash the place.

Mung Posted March 1, 2020 Share Posted March 1, 2020 (edited) I think it won't be long before VPNs are made illegal in Thailand, and the reason for it will be political unrest and the online organisation of said unrest. Sooner though I predict that the COVID-19 situation will be leveraged to ban all protests and social gatherings, but that won't stop the savvy and awake folk who are pi55ed as hell. They will mobilise online until the situation regarding the virus stabilises. Edited March 1, 2020 by Mung Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chainarong Posted March 1, 2020 Share Posted March 1, 2020 This is what Prayut didn't want happening, right at the beginning of his journey as junta leader, he clamped down hard on the Students, you watch, Prayut doesn't want history repeating itself, then again it sometimes has a bad habit of doing just that. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
