Popular Post webfact Posted August 1, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted August 1, 2022 by Joseph O' Connor Political naiveté on the part of the leading Pheu Thai Party in believing that the coalition government, through the electoral reform process, was going to gift it the means to achieve an outright majority. This has been evident since April this year and yet the party continued with the charade. Now with an impressive victory in the censure debate in July and changes underway to see a return to the one ballot voting process, not only is the government looking like it will survive until a snap election is called but there is now an increased likelihood of a return of a coalition government if not led by General Prayut Chan ocha then by his ‘brother in arms’ General Prawit Wongsuwan. July was a significant month in Thai politics. First of all, it saw the government survive what looked like the most dangerous censure motion since 2019 despite potentially damaging revelations about monthly payments to smaller parties revealed by Setthakij Thai Party (Thai Economic Party) leader Thamanat Prompow. This weekend saw political scientists accept that Prime Minister Prayut Chan ocha and his unwieldy coalition government appear on course to finish their term although a snap election is predicted to be called at the end of the year.

His friends and the envelopes kept him and will keep him in place..Even the Constitutional Court is at his side... if w ewill see soon. And the country??/ more corruption, further backwarths more poverty and more ricch for the the rich.... In Sri Lanka they want to stop it. Irak people are sick of the corrupt elite and it will come to Thailand too. They can stop it now with section 112 but be sure if PM Prayuth keeps in being in power in in or anoher way thi gs will be worse... Change is needed and alot of change, with free democratic army free elections to start with 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still a number of revolutionary scenarios to come....... Keep in mind, the Ammat circles are becoming quite aged and weary. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not terribly complicated to figure out - the historic reality. Yet, some will go on [believing they're knowledgeable] ignoring the reality and spur on the usual surface whimsy and non sequiturs.
