Endless Emergency Decree extensions………

Yes, we're up to nearly twenty now! 

 

As I've said before, why bother? Why not just say "Until further notice" and be done with it?

 

I suppose they have to be seen to be "taking things into consideration" before they announce each extension!

More guns and a steady aim, the "People " don't have the guts or the will to challenge them. By 2026, the tourist's wwho were not needed according to the "Pools" will have forgotten how nice a holiday in Thailand used to be.  Beggars will again be on the street corners being fed by the mafia.

Actually, the younger generation did challenge them but no one else supported them. Teenagers and young adults went to the streets during Covid and fought for a proper democracy. The rest of the population just complained about lower incomes while drinking beer and whiskey.

 

It would take a Sri Lanka situation for people to wake up here, right now they are half drunk, half asleep.

True & ultimately this is the only way change will come

Meaning it will have to be the younger generations as the older generations have been conditioned & beautifully broken

Sadly it may come down to the youth testing the generals willingness to shoot/kill their own

 

At that point the only hope would be that another country takes pity on the situation & steps in slapping this toy army into its rightful place

 

But unfortunately that type of rescue these days only happens in countries like Libya,  which had something the rescuers wanted for themselves.

Thailand like Myanmar or even Somalia etc has nothing of any real value any other country wants so there would be no rescue

Well we need to remember they stacked the deck as soon as they overthrew the elected government

They added/appointed 250 senators mostly military

Knowing in all future votes they could only win

Take away those 250 junta appointed senators and the result would be 6 votes of support, 207 against, and 9 abstentions.

Does he actually do anything except pull the strings?
