[webfact]

 

General Prawit Wongsuwan quit as leader of the Palang Pracharath party, was renominated, uncontested and reassumed the post today (Saturday).

 

His sudden resignation today, which effectively dissolves the party’s executive committee, was announced by acting party leader Paibul Nititawan at the general meeting.

 

Paibul told party members to remain calm, assuring them that Prawit will not leave the party, adding that the general meeting will choose a new leader and the new executive committee today.

Meet Prawit once. He wheezed and couldn't walk without help. I don't think much of his chances.

One step backwards to enable two steps forward no doubt.

A snake will pull backwards to enable it to strike with greater efficiency.

Prawit steps down temporarily as leader of the PPP, as no-one likes him very much.

Pheu Thai party will hold talks with PPP and Anutins party.. get their much needed support then Prawit will be re-elected.

All theatre. Yet to be determined why?

My guess is that he fell asleep, his face hit the keyboard and accidentally hit the 'Quit the party' button. He therefore had to go through the motions again of re-applying

Wil this guy ever just go away? The best thing he could do for the nation would be to move overseas, never to be heard from again. He is a boil on the face of Thailand. Such an incapable leader. 

 

Where do they find these bottom of the barrel dregs?

His 'quality' is to be extremely crooked and corrupted. Not easy to be that incapable and bad.

MFP have been well and truly stitched up they will now be on there own in opposition up against all the traitors who joined the coalition and no doubt a new bunch of senators will be nominated by the next government to ensure the MFP or what other new name they call themselves will never ever get into power

Don't see much MFP's uproar to indicate that they were stitched up. Talks among the coalition allies are still on-going to discuss their stance ahead of the PM vote on Friday. If MFP decide to break away and become the opposition because of BJT and CT joining the coalition, they will still vote for PTP's candidate. PTP will live up to their pledge not to have military parties in the coalition.

Otherwise I totally agree.????????

In Prawits case it would be more like dull skuggery.

Usually they have graduated from a 7th rate military academy.

Having no vote or voice in Thailand it doesn't matter if we accept it or not.

 

Probably because they have the tanks, guns and power to back themselves up against unarmed civilians.
