rwhoov Posted December 21, 2013 Share Posted December 21, 2013 As far as I can tell, "political reform" means disenfranchising everyone who would probably vote against you. (So reminiscent of the Republican Party in the U.S.) Suthep reminds me of the childhood bully who keeps trying to steal the ball and won't play unless he can legally cheat. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fab4 Posted December 21, 2013 Share Posted December 21, 2013 In the USA, we frequently have uncontested elections. It doesn't even make the news; and life goes on. I say move forward with the elections and WHEN the PTP win by an unassailable majority, anyway, they will still be seen as a legitimate albeit uncontested government. PTP's job now is to get turnout so high that it legitimizes the results. Ergo, even if contested, the yellows (how appropriate) would not have won, anyway. But they've already done that - They won 265 seats out of 500 available. If you add up all the seats left and call them all yellow for the sake of it they still would have only 235. How many seats more than the other parties do you need to get in this system of yours to be legit? 300, 400? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MobileContent Posted December 21, 2013 Share Posted December 21, 2013 "Democrats resolve to boycott election" Oh <deleted>, what is going on? The dems cannot be buying into suthep's fascist BS. What choice does the country now have? A criminal PT who will continue to drive the country into bankruptcy through greed and idiotic schemes or the nationalistic, fascist BS Suthep is pushing. The poisoned chalace or the hangman's noose. Stupid, stupid, stupid. What they can do if they don't have the funds for vote buying? To make a reform panel against corruption and vote buying isn't fascist....can't recall Hitler or Mussolini fought for clean Democracy.... The Democrats have more cash then any other political parties. Look at CP Group, Bangkok Bank etc to give you an idea. The Democrats are backed by Chinese Thai's in Bangkok. When Thaksin came to power he left the Chinese Thai's out of Bangkok and burned money in the North and Northeast. Bangkok Chinese didn't like that. Not to mention Thaksin was a Chinese Thai from Chiang Mai. All the Chinese Thai's from Bangkok supported him in the beginning, but Thaksin only gave them bones. The Chinese Thai's in Bangkok have to be a bid careful as they are crossing lately often the red lines. If 15 million people from Isaan, North Thailand and Central Thailand are starting to boycott CP Group, Bangkok Bank, Chang Beer etc because those guys back the Democrat Party they will loose a lot of money on the long-term. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whybother Posted December 21, 2013 Share Posted December 21, 2013 Every 5 years the Dem Party would find the village and say "vote for us it will be better next time" so the village people did and nothing changed. Off they went to Bangkok never to be seen for another 5 years. Along came Thaksin "Vote for me it will be different next time" so in 2001 they give the new guy a try. The guy delivered his 30 baht health care and ever since he has been the messiah of the millions. Its not that Thaksin gave them alot its just that the DEms gave them nothing for 60 years. The treatment by the so called elites of poor people in Thailand will never be forgotten and it is inconceivable to think that the fact they are totally unelectable will ever change. These few people cannot just dismiss 15,000,000 voters like it was the 1950's. If they remove the government of choice there can be only bloodshed but if civil war is the way forward we cannot stop it. Only hope the right people cop the bullets and not the foot soldiers on both sides. A little bit of Nicolae Causcescu...round the back for certain individuals Nice little red shirt bed time story.

fareastguy Posted December 21, 2013 Share Posted December 21, 2013 Thailand doesn't have any real credible politicians on either side, well not enough to run a government anyway! Whoever wins the day will rule the trough, greed & corruption is rampant in all parties, all businesses & all institutions. It has kept Thailand where it has been for years & will keep it their for many more to come. The education non-system will actually make sure that it will not improve with time either, as the un-educated will stay that way & the privileged will always win. In fact any nation that thinks Thailand is a country worth investing in, other than a quick buck to be made then they need to look elsewhere. Thailand has been on the slide for sometime & is now at an all time low, brought about by one corrupt family/government after another. On a sure path to self destruction.. I for one am looking for another country to reside in.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post sjaak327 Posted December 21, 2013 Popular Post Share Posted December 21, 2013 Suthep has played his hand. The Dems don't want an election because they know they can't win it. Therefore he wants chaos. The people pulling his strings are willing to risk all (read my earlier posts) because the prize is so big. A totalitarian state run paying lip service to monarchy, the establishment back in control. Big business won't care, tourists don't care as long as there is some signs of stability. But of course there are the people, who won't stand for this. So we need to have a revolution and sort out these elites once and for all. As I stated earlier, we are witnessing the death rattle of the establishment, who won't go down without a fight but it's too late, you can't put the genie back in the bottle. The military needs to be careful, the USA won't accept any more coups which put these bastards back into power. So just as the establishment yielded power to the people in most western democracies, so they will yield here too. He doesn't want chaos. He wants reform. If he wants reform, all he needs to do is run for elections and gather enough electoral mandate, that is how a democracy works. Of course Suthep wants reform without a mandate, something that is simply unacceptable. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post MobileContent Posted December 21, 2013 Popular Post Share Posted December 21, 2013 "unless their is political reform first" - by which of course they mean that the party, the majority will vote for, is crippled in such a way as to make it unelectable - sure that is democracy. A country where the highly educated minority wield power over the majority - sure that is democracy A(nother) country where the interests of big business outweigh the good of the majority - sure that is democracy Instead of boycotting and protesting why don't the opposition mount a campaign to gain popularity in rural areas- it may take them longer to gain power but they will have done so legitimately instead of relying on an army to put them in power. Changing government through violence and disorder is just another manifestation of corruption. the biggest point in political reforms is to stop the vote buying.....PTP every time again is doing a full scale vote buying, no campaign can do anything against that if you aren't super rich to pay more. Once again I can't beleive how stupid some people are... In my 11+ years of living in Thailand I have been in the villages for many elections, and for elections "All Parties" have their supporters who are giving out Baht, Gifts or both to encourage people to Vote for their party... And the supposedly unintelligent, uneducated villagers just take the Baht / Gifts and then vote for whomever they prefer regardless of who paid what... In my view that makes them the smarter ones, they vote their choice and still get baht / gifts for all... In my opionon The loyalty / support for the PTP comes from the fact that they are the only party who has effectively passed anything to help the poor people of Thailand... The Democrates and others have for years lined their pockets / bank accounts from their political postions and offered nothing in return... And now they can't imagine why they can't just continue doing so... Pianoman +1 you are spot on. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ricardo Posted December 21, 2013 Share Posted December 21, 2013 Since they will only get 25% of the vote anyway , who cares if they boycott it or not. Suthep is not interested in Democracy or the electorate, only in his own personal gain. Il Duce of Bangkok - he makes less sense that Oswald Mosely did back in the 40s, rants and gesticulates more than Mussolini and makes as much sense as a chocolate ashtray. The other side are no better but at least Yingluck is easy on the eye........... I'm curious about the source for your figure of "only 25% of the vote" ?

Popular Post siampolee Posted December 21, 2013 Popular Post Share Posted December 21, 2013 Push has come to shove, Thaksin via his puppets has played a power game since he first came onto the political scene. Self promotion of his position, his business interests and of course we are all well aware of the nepotism so beloved by the puppet master. Now his bluff has been called and in reality Thaksin and his family and their brown nosing acolytes are in an electoral and political cul de sac.One way in and one way out. However to achieve an exit a U turn has to be made. Now who will be in the driving seat when the U turn is made, Thaksin., Yingluck, a National Government as a result or the military? This is now the final moments of the end game that Thaksin and his P.T.P. and coalition puppets have been playing for the last few years. Indeed the winnings that they are about to receive may well not be to their liking. Who let the cork out of the bottle in 2010 with their sponsoring and support of the red Shirt movement ? That particular matter along with the subsequent actions and results have indeed come back to haunt and even taunt Thaksin, the tactics he employed are being used against him now. What does the future hold now we wonder? Civil unrest, military coup election cancelled, the establishment of a National Governing Council, the exit of Thaksin and his clan from the political stage, the exit of the Democrats from the political stage or the prospect of the emergence of a despotic dictatorship? This is it, this is the last chance for Thailand and its people to determine their future. its either a reformed and hopefully a far less corrupt future with cleaner politicians or the option of being crushed under the heel of a new political family dynasty focused on its own end and to hell with Thailand and its peoples. In reality the problems are not so much a political matter but the conduct and the aims of one creature and his family.The problem being that Thailand and its peoples are the ante being laid in this game of political and personal aims game of chance. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lite Beer Posted December 21, 2013 Share Posted December 21, 2013 Thai opposition announces election boycottBANGKOK, December 21, 2013 (AFP) - Thailand's main opposition Democrat Party on Saturday announced it would boycott snap elections in the crisis-gripped kingdom, as protesters prepare to ramp up rallies aimed at toppling the government. Party members -- who resigned as MPs en masse to join the demonstrations that have rocked Bangkok for weeks -- voted against participating, according to Democrat leader Abhisit Vejjajiva. "The meeting of party executives and former party lawmakers resolved that the Democrat Party will not send candidates to contest in the February 2, 2014 general election," he said in a press conference following the meeting. Embattled premier Yingluck Shinawatra, who called the elections in an effort to cool tensions, has insisted the polls will go ahead regardless of the Democrat decision. But the move throws Democrat backing firmly behind protesters who are calling for democracy to be suspended for an unelected "people's council" to be installed to enact reforms before a future vote. Demonstrators want to rid the country of Yingluck and the influence of her Dubai-based brother Thaksin -- an ousted billionaire ex-premier who is despised by a coalition of the southern Thai poor, Bangkok middle classes and elite. Politically-turbulent Thailand has seen several bouts of political turmoil since Thaksin was ousted in a military coup in 2006, with rival protests sometimes resulting in bloody unrest. "The Democrats think the elections will not solve the country's problems, lead to reform, or regain people's faith in political parties," Abhisit said. -- (c) Copyright AFP 2013-12-21 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
