HeavyDrinker Posted July 3, 2011 Share Posted July 3, 2011 Why PM? If you have evidence then post it to support your claims. It's one thing saying it here just because you didn't like the outcome but if you are going to make claims then at least back them up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ijustwannateach Posted July 3, 2011 Share Posted July 3, 2011 It is relatively well known by all those who have intimate connections with Thai people that money is used by various entities to influence voting, so unless you're calling all the people on this thread LIARS- which I would, as a mod, consider inflammatory- I suggest that Pukka and HeavyDrinker retire their argument and allow the thread to return to topic.

thunder30101 Posted July 3, 2011 Share Posted July 3, 2011 Not calling you a liar because vote buying is rampant everywhere and by ALL parties in thailand, but NOBODY gives out money on the day of the election, its all done before election day.

Ijustwannateach Posted July 3, 2011 Share Posted July 3, 2011 As I previously mentioned, we are returning to the topic. A couple of posters who still don't 'get it' have had their posts removed, this time without a warning. The next time I am required to pay attention to them, they will receive warnings and posting holidays. As for the rest of you, thanks for a fairly lighthearted approach, all things considered.

drogue Posted July 4, 2011 Share Posted July 4, 2011 In my GF's village, she was paid 300 Baht to vote for Thaksin's sister and her sister was paid 300 Baht to vote for Abahsit. Go figure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TongueThaied Posted July 4, 2011 Share Posted July 4, 2011 Nobody offered to buy my father-in-law's vote this year, unlike in past years (much to my disappointment, he always took the money). However, the Abhisit gang was outspending everybody else 10 to 1 in campaigning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Right. it makes no difference to me what politicians in any country are in power. They are all crooked. You need to be able to change them out once in a while to keep things even but they are all crooked. Just depends on which pockets get filled.
