Lets see if the constitutional court is impartial or not... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was the only candidate put forward and told reporters after the ceremony that he was ready for the position of Prime Minister and would work to restore democracy. His 8 years are definitely up. He only stays on if some loophole can be found by his friends at court. What about the rest of his soldiers and their guns and tanks? The constitutional Court won't be able to live with that.

Popular Post Dialemco Posted September 29, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted September 29, 2022 My opinion for what is worth is that he should be reinstated as PM as be has brought peace and stability to Thailand especially as the caretaker PM has not really proved himself as being an experienced and capable leader. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrJ2U Posted September 29, 2022 Share Posted September 29, 2022 He's waisted so much time for Thailand. He's literally dragging Thailand down with his ineptitude and ultra conservative boondoggles. Such a shame. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was plenty of time for thick brown envelopes to make their way to the judges. See how many of them will be driving new lambo's soon. It's not even thick brown envelopes with this lot, it's decided above them. They just obey orders. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

smutcakes Posted September 29, 2022 Share Posted September 29, 2022 Actually from an opposition point of view it is probably better the CC vote with Prayuth. That will drive the narrative and discord far more towards the votes next year than changing now. Many Thais have short memories and come 6 months down the line, many may have tempered views if the PPRP managed to do a few things to improve their image. Having him there or not make zero difference to the election schedule, so its almost worth keeping him from an opposition point of view. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

foreverlomsak Posted September 30, 2022 Share Posted September 30, 2022 On 9/29/2022 at 9:11 AM, webfact said: Article 158 states: “The prime minister shall not hold office for more than eight years in total, whether or not consecutively. However, this shall not include the period during which the prime minister carries out duties after vacating the office.” So that means he can "vacate the office", during which he remains PM, and take 10 years to find a suitable (acceptable to him) replacement.
