Popular Post webfact Posted April 22, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted April 22, 2022 OPINION | By Tulsathit Taptim Reporters being tumultuously curious about Jurin Laksanavisit’s and the Democrat Party’s future tells a lot about where the country is heading when sexual harassment and domestic violence are concerned. The case of Prinn Panitchpakdi is a big political blow for the Democrats, but truth is that it happens at many other places, too. More or less, better or worse, it’s occurring, either in luxurious buildings or ramshackle houses. Problem is, if it does not involve celebrities, billionaires, high-ranking officials or politicians, the chances of making the front page, let alone courtrooms, are next to nothing. Join our daily ASEAN NOW Thailand Newsletter - Click to subscribe This makes the entire trouble hard to solve. As long as major questions stemming from the Prinn affair have to do with whether Jurin, who allegedly brought the man into the party and promoted him at the expense of Korn Chatikavanij, should resign; how the scandal would affect the Democrats politically; or how much the controversy would impact political divisions in Thailand, the majority of the iceberg will remain solidly underwater.

Well, as far as I can tell, nothing has changed in Thailand in this regard over the past 25 years (or longer).

It's heading no-where when people can buy there way out of prosecution or talk their way out of it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Burma Bill Posted April 22, 2022 Share Posted April 22, 2022 Quote "Thailand grapples with old trouble presenting itself in new era" I am not surprised, when the country is being run by an elite "establishment" from the Dark Ages!! 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doctor Tom Posted April 22, 2022 Share Posted April 22, 2022 These replies to this post are all stuff and nonsense. The worst offending seems to go on in the US, UK and Europe. Thailand is no exception to a world wide trend that has been going on for eons. It would be nice if people on here didn't immediately jump on the 'LOS is worse than anywhere else' bandwagon. I truly wonder why they have anything to do with this country if they hate it, its politics ( nothing to do with them) and its people so much. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spidermike007 Posted April 22, 2022 Share Posted April 22, 2022 Nothing the democrats can do would compare to the level of damage and destruction the current leadership has caused. Their entire party is morally bankrupt. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andycoops Posted April 23, 2022 Share Posted April 23, 2022 As the place is run mainly by old fat men who through vanity dye their hair black on a regular basis and have the intellect of a Muppet, not alot will change. Oh. And you also have to be in the army and a corrupt billionaire to boot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
