MAJOR PARTIES HAVE COINED pithy, striking catchphrases which they keep repeating whilst delivering electoral campaign speeches in public venues throughout the country. Huge signs on the backdrop of raised platforms and roadside placards ostentatiously advertise their respective slogans.

 

According to former election commissioner Gothom Arya, various catchphrases of those contesting parties may have been primarily designed to remind constituents nationwide of major plans and schemes which they have repeatedly pledged to carry out with either a success or failure probably depending more or less on certain personalities who are playing pivotal roles in their respective camps.

 

 

– The Ruam Thai Sang Chart which is pitting Prime Minister/de facto party boss Prayut Chan-o-cha as sole partisan contestant for head of a post-election government has flaunted a terse slogan literally saying ”Done That, Doing That, Will Continue To Do That.”

 

Gothom remarked the ultra-conservative party’s punchline is undoubtedly reminding voters of the self-proclaimed event in which Prayut has done things, is still doing so and will continue to do so in the course of public and national interests.

All rhetoric and no substance.

Slogan should have been "Led a coup, benefited from the coup, may stage another coup"

”Done That, Doing That, Will Continue To Do That.”

As in, took power in a coup, and rigged an election to stay in power, and having every intention of doing so again...

 

Pithy, accurate and easily understood.

How about 'You vote us out, Army put us back in' ? 

Why not be honest and say how much they will pay you to vote for them ????

How about "We Will Crush Corruption!"...............  No?............Too lucrative?

None of the parties have policies only self-interested avaricious politicians: their slogan should read; 'Vote for me, I am less greedy than him.'

How about: 

"Watch me win this time"   for Prawit

" Generally expected to stay"    for Prayut

" Put A Nut In charge"               guess who....

" Shin up - time to win again"
