webfact Posted September 4, 2022 Posted September 4, 2022 Photo from สำนักข่าวราษฎร – Ratsadon News A ruling from the Constitutional Court on Prime Minister Prayut Chan-o-cha’s 8-year term in office, whether it is in his favour or not, will be the “breaking point” for the Thai society, claimed United Front for Democracy against Dictatorship (UDD) leader Jatuporn Prompan yesterday (Sunday). Jatuporn and Nititorn Lamlua led a small group of protesters, who gathered at Ratchaprasong intersection in the heart of Bangkok today, to demand the ouster of the so-called “3-Ps”, who include Prime Minister Prayut, Acting Prime Minister Prawit Wongsuwan and Interior Minister Anupong Paochinda. The UDD leader said that the number of protesters is not the issue, adding that they will be able to mobilise more people at the right time “which is not necessary yet.” He did, however, hint that the right time for mass protests will be when the Constitutional Court issues its ruling on Prayut’s term in office, expected sometime in the next 4-5 weeks.

Popular Post ThailandRyan Posted September 4, 2022 Popular Post Posted September 4, 2022 If they rule he did not become PM until 2019 when installed by his peers and not elected, as he was not elected as a MP at all during this election, and he was chosen based upon his own new law allowing an outsider to be nominated. If that is so then what is the difference with saying he was PM in 2014 when he installed himself as the countries leader after the Coup he staged? Afterall he was not elected then either. Maybe they will rule that his tenure as PM never started at all.......Buddha, please help the citizens of this country. If he was not a PM all of those prior years was this country then under the control of a .......well I can not use the word here.... I guess if we used the same rule of law being created, then my Thai daughter could have been PM. 3

After he illegally dissolved the elected House and half-elected Senate, he formed a new Senate and House (as I recall) by personal fiat which in turn according to the royally endorsed Interim Constitution (aka Charter) written by the junta NCPO elected Prayut as PM. And further in accordance with the Interim Constitution (consistent with the many that preceded and followed it with regard to election of the PM), Prayut was royally endorsed as PM as evidenced by such announcement in the Royal Gazette. Prayut's election in 2014 was legal and the election process was essentially the same in 2019 when Prayut was AGAIN elected PM. Following the same "rule of law" would unlikely elect your daughter (whom I do not know) as PM. But maybe you meant sarcasm rather than fact. 3
