Prime Minister General Prayut Chan-o-cha still believes that he can win the next general election despite the ongoing turmoil within the ruling coalition and that he wants to be in the premier seat until 2025, former Prime Minister Thaksin Shinawatra said.

 

“He does not care if the people are suffering and he does not care if the economy is staggering, he does not care, he wants to stay,” the self-exiled Thaksin said in his bi-weekly talk on Clubhouse.

 

“He already arranged the APEC (Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation) summit like me, so he want to stay for the full term like me as well,” he said.

 

“The only case where he will not stay for the full term is the case where he can see that he will be able to come back for another 2 years,” he added.

No, that´s not him! This is Tony.

Pro military party up to win the next elections.... Yeah.. we should get rid of the power of the army.. They have to defend the country and  not with politics...Their power should be limited a lot

The Army is supposed to protect a country, not run it.

 

Get these khaki imbeciles back to the barracks.

Out with Prayuth, the power grabbing generalissimo. Nobody wants him, nor is he needed. He has already amply shown his staggering lack of leadership ability.

 

Down with the dinosaurs. In with the youth.
