End of story:The northern earls, Edwin and Morcar, Esegar the sheriff of London, and Edgar the Atheling, who had been elected king in the wake of Harold's death, all came out and submitted to the Norman duke before he reached London. So ,when the smart noble realizes he can't win ,he submits cowardly ! By this time their troops were dead ! lesson to learn,never fight for a rich guy !

yoshiwara Posted February 14, 2010 Share Posted February 14, 2010 while each of the 459 red-shirt schools will be providing between 1,000 and 2,000 people Using schools, & presumably the school children, to achieve political goals is stooping as low as it gets. Do these people not care about what they are brainwashing the youth of this country with? Shame, shame, shame. Makes a change from the usual brainwashing dished out eveywhere else in Thailand The Reds of course are not brainwashed whan they roll petrol tankers and hit out with baseball bats in Bangkok neighbourhoods. They have to be paid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SomTumTiger Posted February 14, 2010 Share Posted February 14, 2010 We should of course remember the demonstration that Thaksin ordered a while back when he called on all his supporters to send their wives and children along to support him whilst he still was in power.The tactical (or tactless) next move made was that Thaksin sent his wife and his children to Hong Kong and elsewhere out of the way. Stand up for me and I will shout from the outside of the arena. Indeed wonderful principles. All these protesters are but cannon fodder in the campaign to protect Thaksin and his cronies avowed aim to pillage Thailand for as much as they can in their never ending campaign to line their own pockets upon their hoped for return to power. The label may be different but it is the same old formula. The (ample)rich get (ample) richer, however Somchai and Porntip from the streets will end up living on the streets. You will never get any of the Thaksin sympathizers to explain this. t They just can't. It is one of the most damning things he has ever done. If anyone would stand up to explain this it would be a first. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EyesWideOpen Posted February 14, 2010 Share Posted February 14, 2010 There is a Cambodia saying. When elephants fight, only the ants die. Sadly I think this will certainly be the case here, as this is a pretty major fight among the pigs at the feeding trough. Hmmmm. Think I will wait until Thaksin's flee Thailand. Then I will head over to Laos...... :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's on Thai news a lot at the moment, the video clip is Arisaman speaking at a red rally in Khon Kaen 2 weeks ago where he urges everyone to come to Bangkok with a plastic bottle. He tells the crowd there's no need to fill it with petrol in Khon Kaen, they can do that in Bangkok (cheers in the background). Perhaps Arisaman (and Seh Daeng) are in fact third hands set out to discredit the peace loving Gandhi, Nelson Mandela, Aung San Suu Kyi red supporters?

Puccini Posted February 16, 2010 Share Posted February 16, 2010 From the OP: ...At a meeting yesterday, leaders of the Democratic Alliance against Dictatorship (DAAD) appeared to have differences over several key issues, including the date for the rally - on whether it should be held before the verdict is read out on former PM Thaksin Shinawatra's assets-seizure case on February 26. The date both sides finally decided upon was February 20... The “million-man march” was announced four days ago and is scheduled for four days from today. Is any information available about the route the march will take, where and at what time it will start and end? When are the estimated 700,000 people from the provinces expected to arrive in Bangkok? Where will they stay if they arrive the day before the march? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wonder who got the bill for that. Spoke to my wife earlier today: "Thai news on TV showed the red shirt leader telling them to bring empty glass bottles to BKK. Don't fill them with petrol, we have petrol for you in BKK" Frightening. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In 2003, Jatuporn and other ministry officials came into conflict with local farmers in Nakhon Si Thammarat over government land policy. The farmers, in protest of government policy, took over a plantation owned by Thai Ruam Pattana Farming Co. The protesters accused authorities of leasing large tracts of land to big palm oil producers instead of redistributing the land to the farmers. In reponse to the land seizure, Jatuporn and other ministry officials ordered 1,000 police to retake the property. Jatuporn defended the action, saying the protesters were armed and violated trespassing laws. ( October 30, 2003).

Don't know where they will stay before the march, but I do know that many times before very large numbers have been bused to Bangkok, done the procession or whatever, then been dumped somewhere in Bangkok to find their own way home, which for many is quite expensive. One example I can quote is walking along the footpath outside the almost failed shopping complex on the corner of Rajadamri Road and Petchaburi Road, and there must have been 4 or 5,000 people just sitting on the footpath, the parking area, the road etc., all looking very forlorne. My Thai adult son potitely asked what was happening. a couple of the people explained that they were very angry, they were bused to Bkk, fed rubbish food, waved the flags at the rally, given 200Baht, and then dumped on that corner.

BSJ Posted February 16, 2010 Share Posted February 16, 2010 I have been in a peaceful one day protest rally of 160,000 people....and that shut down a lot of streets, disrupted public and private transport, put a strain on public conveniences and tied up 100's of cops. Just imagine what a million people would be like over 5 days! Giving them shelter, food, water and buckets every day would keep another 10,000 busy. Then there is the chance that it could turn ugly. Even if only half of em have Molotov Cocktails....thats a whole lot of trouble waiting to happen! He11, things could get out of control very quickly indeed.

siampolee Posted February 17, 2010 Share Posted February 17, 2010 (edited) Just a little more information on the Champion of Thai Democracy Jatuporn Promphan. circa 2007 Jatuporn Promphan reacted angrily on January 31 when a group of Ramkhamhaeng University students visited the party's headquarters and demanded he stop intervening in the university's activities, The Nation reports. Some 20 students led by student organisation chairman Somchote Meechana submitted a letter to Thai Rak Thai caretaker leader Chaturon Chaisang. But Jatuporn received the letter himself. The students also brought a banner that read: "We demand political groups stop interfering with the student organisation." Jatuporn denied he had asked the Sattha Dharma Party to assist Thai Rak Thai in protesting against the junta. Sattha Dharma is a student group contesting the student elections. Jatuporn, a former Ramkhamhaeng student, was earlier accused of hiring the university's students to protest against the military-installed government. "I want you to think it over if you ever met the junta and received money or not. I want you swear to me that you did not lie," he said angrily. He then admitted he was a former Sattha Dharma member - having denied any knowledge of the group two days ago - and said he was always invited to lecture when the student elections were held. Somchote countered Jatuporn by saying that he and other stu-dents had come to the Thai Rak Thai headquarters because it was the duty of the student organisation. He insisted they had never received any money from the Council for National Security (CNS). As soon as Somchote finished speaking, Jatuporn pointed at the group and shouted furiously: "You are brave to swear that you have never known the CNS or received money from them. "We are Ramkhamhaeng, too, so don't you lie to me. Ramkham-haeng students in the past fought with the dictator, but on February 1 what do you do? When the military made a coup, were you concerned?" Jatuporn said he would today file a police complaint against the group. Edited February 17, 2010 by siampolee Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

webfact Posted February 17, 2010 Author Share Posted February 17, 2010 No order to mobilise forest rangers : Suwit BANGKOK: -- There is no order signed to mobilise and arm thousands of forest rangers nationwide to Bangkok to prevent red shirts from rallying in Bangkok, Suwit Khunkitthi, minister of natural resources and environment said Wednesday. The minister was responding to a claim by a red shirted leader; Jatuporn Prompan that he has evidence to prove that Suwit signed an order to mobilise 6,000 forest rangers with firearms to the capital to block the red shirts coming to rally here. However, Suwit Wednesday dismissed the accusation as totally unfounded. "How could he claim that he has got the signed order. I've never signed such an order? I hate violence and neither want to see any confrontation nor violence," he said. Instead he instructed civil servants to remain impartial. The government and the military have intensified their security in many areas particularly the capital in the run-up to the Supreme Court's February 26 ruling whether to seize the assets worth Bt76 billion of convicted forme prime minister Thaksin Shinawatra. -- The Nation 2010-02-17 [newsfooter][/newsfooter] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But no one want to agree with payment after. All want the money BEFORE.
