Popular Post Donutz Posted October 17, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted October 17, 2020 Wonderful to see various sites in Bangkok and plenty of other cities fill up with thousands of protestors. They want one thing: a just country with democracy. Let's hope they will get what they want. Uncle needs to go and give the country back to the people. 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post steven100 Posted October 17, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted October 17, 2020 Khun Prayut Chan O Cha has extensive support from his colleagues within the military. He has always had support from various Thai representatives as well, and not forgetting his Thai civilian support which is millions. Not everyone in Thailand agrees with protests, roadblocks, anarchy, mayhem and lawlessness and so not everyone wants problems. Thailand has enough problems with the economy as it is, so protests certainly won't go down well with many Thais. He will be in charge for many years to come. Lets hope so. 1 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"Rehearsal" steven100.......Rehearsal. Had the Police shown up then it would have lasted longer than it did. Point has been made. Governments lack of a response shows that they have acquiesced at least a little. Lets see what the Government response to tonight's bailiwick is in the morning. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As evidenced by interviews today many of todays protestors (who did not take part yesterday) took part, and will do so in future, because of how they saw the police behave last night. They were more prepared for greater violence tonight but, as I said, today has been a rehearsal.......which went very well.

Must be a lot of power plays going on now. 3 police sacked on Thursday for not doing their duty, and the whole force given the day off today. King still thinks Thailand should not change, Prawit given overall control, but the army not yet apparent. Prayuth gave a speech warning that anyone could die at any moment and that he can not understand why people are cross because he has not done nothing wrong. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
