Popular Post webfact Posted April 1 Popular Post Share Posted April 1 File photo : Pita LImjaroenrat, former leader of Move Forward party//Reuters Politicians targeting powerful posts in provincial administrative organizations now have less than a year to prepare for nationwide local elections. And with the poll only months away, it’s clear that many potential candidates are hoping to ride into power on the popularity of the Move Forward Party. The reformist party won last year’s national election but failed to form a government. “I’ve noticed that two types of political groups are reaching out to Move Forward,” said Olarn Thinbangtieo, a lecturer at Burapha University’s Faculty of Political Science and Law. The first group, he said, is composed of new-generation politicians in well-developed provinces that have a significant percentage of middle-class families and individuals with a different mindset in their populations. The second comprises local politicians with limited prominence in their respective provinces. “The first type aspires to breathe positive change into society while the second hopes to dethrone formidable political rivals,” Olarn said.

To be clear 'The reformist party won last year’s national election but was blocked by a military minority coalition to form a government.' "failed" sounds like MVP's fault to the unknowing. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spidermike007 Posted April 2 Share Posted April 2 I think to say that Move Forward failed to form a government is very misleading. We all know the election was stolen, we all know that Pita was elected fairly, and he was hugely popular, we all know that Prayuth suffered with horrible election results. And we all know that PT struck a deal with the army and installed a lame puppet PM. Do not attempt to call Thailand a democracy, not when elections are stolen, and not when moral rot continues at the highest levels 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think this point needs some expansion i.e. why it failed to form govt by using the conjunction because. Everyone knows what needs to be written after the conjunction. "The reformist party won last year’s national election but failed to form a government because.......... ." Edited April 2 by dinsdale 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
