ginjag Posted February 27, 2014 Share Posted February 27, 2014 Please note, in the biggest stronghold the shins have, 33% did NOT vote for her. As a Shin family member this is a poor result in view of this area, which is a minefield for non Shin people, the others may I say to be fair on them they did well, please note the rubber vote he had no chance, but got votes.

millwall_fan Posted February 27, 2014 Share Posted February 27, 2014 OK it was a by-election very much on PT turf, but it still shows that large numbers of people support the government. 67,000 is more than Suthep currently has manning his barricades. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scamper Posted February 27, 2014 Share Posted February 27, 2014 (edited) Although this happened last Spring, it is clear that the nepotism continues. Is this what Thailand really wants - family member after family member thrust into power at the beck and call of Thaksin ? Clearly, that image is just peachy for Pheu Thai. But it's also a profoundly distasteful indication that however unsavory it looks to the general public, Thaksin really doesn't care.

gemini81 Posted February 27, 2014 Share Posted February 27, 2014 Need to edit: not 'by election' it's: BUY election (at least ol' PM is using the leftover money from the rice scheme graft to use....try to keep it alive in the extreme north, as the light flickers out on dreams of an Asian Rothschilds dynasty. Shinawatras aren't that clever. Too bad central & the south aren't so fond of being pawns in a game of fiefdom. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ricardo Posted February 27, 2014 Share Posted February 27, 2014 Shows PTP voters are still behind their party! Or perhaps that they were, ten months ago, in the family's home-constituency ? If only fuller details were available for Sankampaeng, from the recent part-completed election, what proportion of the electorate bothered to vote & how many 'no' votes were there ? I suspect that we'll never know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
looping Posted February 27, 2014 Share Posted February 27, 2014 This banned for 5 years deal is BS. People should only have one chance in politics! Sent from my iPad using Thaivisa Connect Thailand mobile app As I understand, they have a 5 year banning, then a 10 year banning on the 2nd offense, and it's not until the 3rd time, do they receive a permanent banning. So, after the second time they pass the baton to a relative and live off their unusual amount of wealth gained from 'two timing' the country. There should be a severe penalty 1st time, with a message such as "You have abused the trust of the people who voted for you, disgraced your family name and failed to serve anyone but yourself. Go to jail for 10 years without parole." Fear of public humiliation, and therefore loss of face could be an effective deterrent, plus of course mandatory jail time. People need to know how serious a crime corruption is, the penalty needs to be up there with the most serious crimes, rather than a slap on the wrist and, let's face it, a 5 year holiday.

muntergok Posted February 27, 2014 Share Posted February 27, 2014 What a headline it would have been if it read " Yaowapa LOSES Chiang Mai by-election " but no chance of that. Big brother made Yingluck head of PTP and 30 days later she was " PM' at least in name so is there a chance Yaowapa is now " puppet PM in Waiting " ? I hope Thaksin has some heavy duty puppet strings. If that's her 'elated' face. He's going to need them. Yingluck got the looks. I wonder what this one got..... at a guess the bulldog temperament Sent from my i-mobile i-STYLE Q6 Love to see that f What a headline it would have been if it read " Yaowapa LOSES Chiang Mai by-election " but no chance of that.

Sent from my iPad using Thaivisa Connect Thailand mobile app I agree the penalties need to be more severe. Unsurprisingly, PTP feels the present rules are already too severe and it was one of the areas they were focusing their constitutional amending efforts on. .

tomacht8 Posted February 27, 2014 Share Posted February 27, 2014 Yaowapa Wongsawat was baned for five-years for electoral fraud. Now she is again in business. She replace Pheu Thai's Chinnicha Wongsawat, whose voting right was revoked for filing a false financial statement. So an electoral fraudster replaces a financial statement liar. Husband Somchai Wongsawat runs on PT List Nr. 2. He was baned for electoral fraud too. Now he collects taxes for the country. Electoral fraud and tax fraud seems to be a family attribute 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
