PRIME MINISTER PRAYUT Chan-o-cha intends to keep running the country with the current coalition government until March, according to a highly-placed source at Government House.

 

Given the current four-year term of the House of Representatives being scheduled to end on March 24, Prayut has already decided against dissolving the House anytime between now and then, said the source who only spoke on condition of anonymity.

 

Palang Pracharath MP Verakorn Khamprakop earlier said Prayut might probably dissolve the House a few weeks ahead of March 24 and call a general election which would be held in 60 days as provided by law.

 

But the nationwide election might probably come up in 45 days if Prayut did not dissolve the House but completely lived out its four-year term as earlier suggested by former prime minister-cum-de facto Pheu Thai boss Thaksin Shinawatra.

Does the WEED MP take over then?

No one will know till it actually happens. 

Emperor Prayuth has decided to "RULE"? I was always of the opinion, that the government runs a party policy presented during election campaigns in adherence to existing laws and regulations. 

So Prayuth is not governing but ruling? Most interesting; makes the rest of the clowns pretty obsolete - me thinks! 

Yeah, the PM just picks and chooses how long he will be in power and when and to whom he will delegate it should he decide (this time) to stick to whatever it is he said. This is the "democracy" the Yellow Shirts and Amaat have "fought" for, one where only they or the ones who represent old power can continue to govern, or as Prayut properly refers to it, "rule" the population despite their clear preference for other leadership. Oh, and you'll notice that their "fight" is one without violence, one where the authorities give them food and water, one where the Army never starts shooting from concealed positions and racking up the bodies. Quite unlike the situation of those who are against the illegal and continual seizure of power by the Elite.
