Popular Post Srikcir Posted September 9, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted September 9, 2022 The only document the Court needs is the public issue of the 2014 Royal Gazette that announced Prayut's endorsement as PM. In lieu of a copy I offer the New York Times article: May 26, 2014 "After Coup, General Vows to create A 'Genuine Democracy' in Thailand" https://www.nytimes.com/2014/05/27/world/asia/thailand.html "In order to maintain the peace and order of the nation and the reconciliation of the people, there shall be a royal command to officially endorse the appointment of General Prayuth Chan-ocha as the leader of the National Council for Peace and Order to administrate the country from here onward." "General Prayuth" .... "was flanked by top officers of the armed forces who stood in front of emblems of the military and the official seal of Thailand's monarchy." Will the Court deny this event took place and/or have any significance? 3 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sambum Posted September 9, 2022 Share Posted September 9, 2022 So they're having a meeting on 14th September 2022 to discuss the agenda from a meeting held on 11th September 2018, which includes the details of the agenda from a previous meeting?

It's not even brown envelopes. This banana court operates purely on instruction from above. They exist to please one person.

expat_4_life Posted September 9, 2022 Share Posted September 9, 2022 I'd say the Prime Minister has a decent legal argument. The constitution did not take effect until April 6th 2017. Why shouldn't he get his 8 years under the new constitution? Up to the courts to decide, well see. Do some of you think he might refuse to step down if so ordered by the courts?

Both the court and Prayut receive instructions/orders from the same people. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andycoops Posted September 9, 2022 Share Posted September 9, 2022 I fail to see if his term was posted in the royal gazette how there can be any objections to the start date, especially in view of the suspended Muppets statements on the sanctity of the institution publishing it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
