More than 80% of the respondents to an opinion poll have admitted that they have lost trust in Thailand’s political parties, because they are full of politicians with vested interests, who engage in power struggles and political games.

 

Dr. Noppadol Kannikar, director of Super Poll, said today that the survey also showed at 86.3% of the respondents agreed with the resignation, from the ruling Palang Pracharat party, of the so-called “See Kumarn”, namely Finance Minister Uttama Savanayana, Energy Minister Sontirat Sontijirawong, Higher Education, Science, Research and Innovations Minister Suwit Mesinsee and Mr. Kobsak Pootrakool, deputy secretary-general of PM’s Office.

 

13.7% of the respondents, however, did not agree with their resignations.

The other, near 20% must have been politicians, or their families !

No, I'm pretty sure they're in the 80+%. 

 

The 20% are those who didn't understand the question.

 

Yet they keep voting for them....

Why "super"?

 

Thai people are not alone...one has to be seriously brainwashed to trust any party, anywhere!

 

Political parties fight for power in the same way that corporations fight for money, and they see the people as a mean to give them access to the power and money they crave.

Civil Servants like to blame Politicians for Thailand's political Woes but they're just as bad if not worse.
You only have to look at the current ruling party full of X Civil Servants to see it's true.
Most Thai's have Civil Servants and or Politicians in their family and they usually most respected Family members for some reason it's all about Status I think.
That's why most Thai's ignore the problems.

The poll says 86.3%, i have never met anybody who speaks anything good about any of them.

These "pols" are very funny, they are absolutely not ordered work lol.

 

I am thinking about the thai people and the nearly non existing political life. When I talk with local people, they are not engaged in politics, they are well trained to walk on their knees when some uniforms is comming around.

 

I must stop to think as a person from the free world, with free talk and writing, that is not how it works here.

 

And if there a day should come some political and demokratic life here, I am not sure the thai people in general is ready to take the responsibility.

 

 

Now... THIS is finally a "super poll" result that I am inclined to believe!

 

Nevertheless surprised that its only 86% of respondents who think political parties are untrustworthy.

I guess they could stop voting ... 

Nobody else seeing how these polls are being twisted to show that a out of the closet junta is better than the current charade? 

 

I'm sure most thais dont trust politicians but these polls are being created to justify certain actions by the military puppets. 

 

 

Democracy is simply surrogates for the rich taking turns in government, they get to steal and loot a bit, but the real money keeps moving up. Even the US, no longer a republic but now a criminal oligarchy, who could seriously think either side of politics isn't just as rotten corrupt as the other?

The free world eh? that is now so PC you can't fart without having to apologise to one group or another. In the UK at any rate after you have been fleeced by taxes and cheated on your pension the only time there is democracy is on polling day where even then the blue sky is lied to and the manifesto's go into reverse once the winner is in number 10. We are all a bunch of sheep led by greedy muppets.

did they leave out "enriching themselves" or is that covered in "Vested Interests"

as  low as  that.

Can you imagine the mess if you let rip with a machine gun  at those shiny white outfits

I wouldn't be so sure - who's checking ?

 

do they have exit polls in Thailand which generally give a fairly accurate estimation of how people voted

I would be wary of any polls from this guy whether it as Superpoll or the Masterpoll outfit previously especially if it is aimed at politicians.  Not sure who he actually works for now but, at the time of the last coup when Masterpoll was pushing out similar stuff his linkedin profile made it fairly clear who he actually worked for.

Difference globally  is that you can generally vote them out next time without fear of vote rigging

Mean that there are still close to 20% morons in the country. Sad to read that this beautiful sunday.

The quoted sentence above is also very misleading and can be considered as fake news. That the people who are members, and in control, of the political parties have vested interest is totally clear. Going as far as calling them politicians should be investigated, though. That´s like giving them credit they do not deserve.

However, a subsequent, highly esteemed, absolutely honest, proven-to-be-accurate, Super-Duper Poll showed that while people mistrust politicians and political parties…..a resounding 128.4% of Thai people have complete trust in all 4,782 of the Thai Army's generals.

unfortunately there's no other choice , when you don't vote you can't moan and bitch about the system, however, the political candidate choice, their standards the type of governance and a constitution deliberately designed so you can find loop holes on every page, it's not much better than China's.

For Thailand, insert any Country in the world, the statement would likely be very similar.

But everyone trusts the same parties who told us to stay home because of the scary virus?

 

You're right everyone is brainwashed

 

Showing this photo to my missus, she pointed out the 5th of the left and the 4th of the right and said, I wonder what they use to get their dress so white,

 

Women are so practical.... sometimes.

 

And then I thought may be the conscience is reflecting, but then most dresses should be black, unless they don,t have a conscience.

 

I am back to watching a movie, otherwise I mess this post even more up.
