Desperate words from a man who’s clinging on for dear life. The whole, “we are Thai. Let’s work together” nonsense won’t work anymore. When will the dinosaurs learn? The seal is now well and truly broken. People know exactly what the elite are up to and how they run things. These things can’t be unlearnt. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Prayut really wants that to happen, he should ride off into the sunset and not come back. Give the country a free honest election, and a chance at being a democratic country, without intimidation from anybody. 7 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post holy cow cm Posted September 21, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted September 21, 2020 (edited) 13 minutes ago, steven100 said: good comment by the PM Khun Prayut Chan O Cha. He is listening to their plight. He and his regime and what he stands for is their plight. If he really cared he would back track, help rebuild the proper way to move forward and then disappear for a good retirement where people in the end might respect him. But he won't and they won't so they all will go down in the public's mind as just what they deserve as a regime protecting the elites who did not care one iota for the normal Thai.

RandolphGB Posted September 21, 2020 Share Posted September 21, 2020 The army will be quietly pleased with how the focus of the anger is shifting away from them towards the top. In the long run, they support what the protesters were demanding at the weekend. It will allow the military to grab even more power. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post pkrv Posted September 21, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted September 21, 2020 (edited) The general-PM couldn't give a flying fig about the people and their plight. Razor wire and concrete barricades to ward off peaceful protest in a "democracy"? The only people he is prepared to join hands with are his fellow trough-swillers. The clock is ticking down I hope...

It could be if people /parties weren't treated as a threat to the pigs around the trough and illegally banned to protect said pigs. Poor cha cha hasn't seen thru' the smoke as yet to see he is just a disposable underling soon off on a oneway trip to the abattoirs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Golden Triangle Posted September 21, 2020 Share Posted September 21, 2020 Would it be rude to enquire here as to what happened to the new shiny plaque ? Would the (so called) PM like to comment ? I'm actually surprised that it's not mentioned anywhere, has anyone asked the demo leaders their thoughts, no I thought not. Oh well, another non event swept under a very large rug ???? I'm sure we'll hear about it sometime. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
