Noppadon added that the centre had been monitoring the movement of social media users in Thailand during the protest on August 16 and found that 178,034 users in Thailand had taken part in the protest, but when combined with users from overseas the number of participants jumped to 7,928,482 users.

 

who needs the Government to act as Big Brother when you have pollsters doing it.

This reveals that the political situation in Thailand could have been more peaceful if there were no interference from overseas, which is planting an illusion of chaos and stirring the emotions of the young generation of Thais,” he said. “I, therefore, would like to urge Thai people to digest news carefully and not fall prey to these agitators who clearly do not want to see Thailand become any stronger.”

 

The arrogance of this <deleted> is beyond belief. Interference from overseas? No one is interested overseas in what happens here, in this backwater, except perhaps one person in Germany, and I'm not convinced about that.

I don't buy it.

...jumped to 7.928482.

 

There. Fixed it.

"Super Poll Research Centre" seems to be a corporate entity that has an office at a university building but nowhere does it say it represents the university. Its email address on its website is the personal email address of the good Dr.

 

One would have to ask what political affiliation it has, if any. Why is it a corporate entity? Who pays?

Right, next.

Seriously? Where do they get these BS figures from?

Perhaps they saw a large use of proxies   (VPN). If they haven't figured out yet why Thai people from Thailand might use such services (to get around blocked content) that may explain it. Or they are lazy/st00pid: foreign IP = foreign person. Or they do know all this but don't care since the data allows them to blame the communists,  uhm foreigners.

It is certainly true, that the Chinese would love certain people and set-ups gone for good. 

But in general, Thailands oligarch elite overdid it for decades without caring whatsoever due to their shortsightedness. The dog got awaken and will not go back to sleep again. Either imminent drastic changes are implemented without further delay or the entire lot is being shipped out anytime soon. 

It has nothing to do with foreigners; this is an absolute Thai affair, to be dealt and done with by Thais only. Question is, how long will it take for the uprising to gain sufficient momentum; a very dangerous type of fire is being played with by the institutions and present power holders. You cannot seriously have Prawatch and cronies goofing around in the government house, seriously considering the purchase of submarines while the country's economy is dying. People are with their backs at the wall and in corners; dangerous argumentation if those no-haves have absolutely nothing to lose anymore. 

Be warned, the writing is on the wall, in big capital letters. I - for one - just hope that all this will be sorted out in an amicable and peaceful manner, without bloodshed, army tanks and brute force as in the past ........ 

Sadly hoping for this to all blow away "amicably" we all know is not going to happen, the piggies are liking the trough and they'll take some moving on......  If they're not gone soon the country will descend into violent turmoil that unfortunately will not be stopped as in the times before by a "Settling" power.   I'm seriously hoping that an outside power might just kick the right backsides out, especially considering what's going on at the moment with China.......  Too much bum licking with China might just do the trick.....

Sounds like a good time to urge foreigners not to go near protests because when the army starts shooting we know who they will aim at first.

This is the sort of bunkum that the bangers on here used to try to rationalise the coup.

I honestly dismissed this at first as a joke, then double checked the old Google, and sure enough, he did actually say this. I am absolutely flabbergasted, gobsmacked and in disbelief. He's in charge of a country of 70 million people!

 

I wonder how long he thought it would take to have citizens of New York, Paris and London all speaking Thai?

Nothing in Thailand can ever be dismissed as a joke - nothing.

 

What's the Thai word for wumao? Welcome to our lair.

The hub of the feeble-minded who can't resist taking the aforementioned useless polls.

It's a Flow diagram so proves everything is true without a doubt ( Sarcasm )
Probably drawn up sorry made up by a Professor or as they say Ajarn so the public wearing yellow shirts will believe it.

I think the Byelorussian government was contracted to do the poll ... but couldn't get the figures up to 98%.....

I suspect they get a lot of their figures from reading thaivisa.   This site is chock full of figures.

quotes and graphs and  experts and guys with cameras taking photos and assuming percentages.

 

great source of figures,  no doubt about it
