More worried about the promised changes beginning in September. Don't want any changes at all to my retirement extension.

What are for changes in September?

Would need to go back and look at the thread. But there was a phrase about reconstituting all the visa categories with specific reference to people on retirement extensions. (Don't want to make this topic about retirement extensions, but it is one of the ramifications of Srettha getting the boot.)

Goodbye, Backstabbing fool. so this will hopefully throw the baht into absolute chaos which is good for us and can the army get back in because all mp's are still there its only all the leaders that are thrown out. So they could easily refuse to back any primeminister from the army unless they put tanks and guns on the street of course which i hope the thais will resist this time around. i fully blame phu thai for this mess they should have stuck with move forward

This might stir the Thai people into action to get rid of this lot  when they realize there will be no 10000 baht

I wish you had a clue. On either Thai or American politics. Srettha "getting the boot had nothing to do with visa policies.

Maybe if you would have been here longer than since late July you would know. Look it up yourself. Everybody who has been with the topic knows what I'm talking about, you fool.

I can't see the Pheu Thai (and Thaksin) allowing Anutin to take the reigns but, really, who is qualified?

The 2 Pheu Thai PM candidates include Pheu Thai Party leader #Paetongtarn Shinawatra. Another key contender is Deputy PM Anutin Charnvirakul, leader of Bhumjaithai Party, who enjoys warm relationships with de facto Pheu Thai Party leader Thaksin

No, as there will change nothing for retirement visa.

Qualifications have nothing to do with it as demonstrated time and again. 

It will probably be another brainless clone of Thaksin.

Goodbye, smiling donkey. It will be somebody as equally out of touch and switched off to the general populace, no doubt (possibly Takki’s brood), but at least we won’t have to be subjected to that ridiculous smiley face EVERY F day! 😉

Birds of a feather flock together.

[kwilco]

Coupled with the dissolving of the Move Forward opposition party this is tantamount to a coup.

 

Do you think it will be followed by a backtracking on the liberalised visa rules?

[Nickcage49]

"Political uncertainty". What else is new?

 

It's been quite a week in Thai politics, even by Thai standards.

lots of foreigners i. Thailand are paid in baht - how will this help them?

[spidermike007]

Well there's no doubt that he deserved to be dismissed, he was certainly the do-nothing PM. He talked a good talk, and he walked a good walk, but he accomplished nothing. It's likely that some of the power brokers here were disappointed that he wasn't able to get more done or that he wasn't able to unite Parliament behind him. Or that he simply looked so foolish, though that did not seem to bother them with Prayuth. 

 

One never really knows what's going on here or who is making the decisions. The saddest part of this whole thing is the people that they're naming as potential substitutes to replace this fool, the last thing in the world this country needs is Anutin, Prawit or another Shinawatra.

Recently I heard the watch king wants his turn as the big boss too.

[jcmj]

Well it’s going to be a very interesting few days, week’s and months ahead. Get ready for a bumpy ride. 

[Mark17AA]

The worlds favourite sit com, should call it "The Cronies" Takes the pressure off the other clowns in governments.

[Peterphuket]

You could wait for that, but there will be no coup the people are tired especially after the recent loss of a future leader who could perhaps get the country back on track.
