Mr. Thai Joe Average isn't going to challenge the military stacked senate. Unfortunately there's the big challenge. However we all need to continue to support the protests in terms of the lower house. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tomacht8 Posted August 24, 2022 Share Posted August 24, 2022 In a poll, over 93% of respondents (sample over 300,000!) want Prayut to go after 8 years as the country's leader. The constitution clearly limits the term of office of the national leader to 8 years. 51 scholars and professors from 15 leading law universities confirm that Prayut's term ends on August 24. The constitutional court finally accepted the petition 2 days before the end of the term of office, although a petition on the same question had already been submitted 2 weeks earlier. Now Prayut will remain seated and officially wait for the decision of the constitutional court, which, as already indicated, can take months, although the case is relatively simple, was predictable for a long time and has already been answered by the 51 legal scholars. It is clear who is trampling on the will of the people, the rule of law and the democratic process. Disgusting. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thingamabob Posted August 24, 2022 Share Posted August 24, 2022 He was put in place to stay in place. He will not be allowed to move on until approval to do so is given. It is unclear at this point when such approval will be given. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spidermike007 Posted August 24, 2022 Share Posted August 24, 2022 Quite possibly the classic definition of a very sore loser. Loser is the key word here. If he is voted out, it is demonstrative enough, that he is no longer wanted, needed, or liked. What would it take to get the message. I guess this was never about a popularity contest, which this man could never win, under any circumstances. Just go Cha Cha. Move on. Get on with your life, leave the Thai people alone, let them prosper. How much do you really need anyway? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
