webfact Posted December 24, 2013 Share Posted December 24, 2013 POLITICSPDRC supporters return to main siteBudsarakham Sinlapalavan,Hataikarn TreesuwanThe NationAnti-government protest leader Suthep Thaugsuban leads supporters back to the main rally site at Democracy Monument. Thousands had camped outside the candidate registration venue, the Thai-Japanese Stadium in Din Daeng, since Sunday evening.Blockade of venue for registration of poll candidates deemed a successBANGKOK: -- The People's Democratic Reform Committee yesterday withdrew its supporters from the Thai-Japanese Stadium, which was surrounded since Sunday night to block the registration of candidates for the February election and declared the operation a success.Meanwhile, protest organisers revised security measures after complaints from protesters and attacks against journalists.PDRC chief Suthep Thaugsuban made a speech at the stadium yesterday afternoon, thanking supporters and asking them to return to the main rally site at Democracy Monument.To further the group's policy against caretaker Prime Minister Yingluck Shinawatra staying in power, he asked supporters to supply photos of her wherever she went. PRDC mobile teams would be dispatched to pursue and harass her with whistle-blowing or other symbolic gestures."Wherever she goes, in the beauty parlour, at work, having meals, she will face us pressuring her. Let's see if she can withstand being pressured to death like what we are going to do," he said. Suthep said he and 17 other core leaders would not meet with the Department of Special Investigation today and tomorrow but planned to request a postponement.Core leader Akanat Promphan said earlier the decision to relocate protesters had nothing to do with the government's Centre for the Administration of Peace and Order announcing that the PDRC illegally disrupted the registration of party-list candidates, which ends on Friday.Sanit Vejrangsri, a provincial official from Satun who was part of the protest, said he thought the demonstrators at the stadium had achieved their goal. He said he didn't know whether political parties would be able to register over the next few days.He also said the protest site at Rajdamnoen Avenue was better because it was more festive.Thanaphat Kongkaew, another protester from Satun, said she thought the move had succeeded after the two-day blockade.Meanwhile, Cham, a Din Daeng resident who asked that her surname not be revealed, said protests in the area had no effect on her daily life. She said she could still sleep and sell goods.PDRC co-leader Thaworn Senneam called a meeting of 200 guards at the Rajdamnoen rally site yesterday to set some rules after several protesters and media personnel complained. Thaworn said security guards must not allow people to disrupt the peace at rally sites and they should be polite to protesters and reporters. He said he would call a meeting with security chiefs at 5pm every day to analyse the situation and plan their work.Over the past two days, some reporters were harassed by protesters and had difficulty doing their duty.-- The Nation 2013-12-25 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post chooka Posted December 24, 2013 Popular Post Share Posted December 24, 2013 The biggest idiot to have ever walked the earth and he really thinks if he takes the country for himself he will get any respect from the rest of the world or it's leaders. The guy is a total nutcase and he is dragging Thailand down where the world is laughing at it. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A success? Don't think so my old son. Parties have registered and, I could be wrong here, I thought Friday was the final day for registration. Or is that not correct? On another note; nice to see that you've mastered the old Benito chin in that picture. Very manly. Edited December 25, 2013 by Bluespunk 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Thailand Posted December 25, 2013 Popular Post Share Posted December 25, 2013 I am thinking he has finally been warned off by his backers after breaking one law too many and making all associated with him look as daft and dangerous as he he is. And still threatening Yingluck with harassment & death? What is going on here. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nibbles48 Posted December 25, 2013 Share Posted December 25, 2013 I am thinking he has finally been warned off by his backers after breaking one law too many and making all associated with him look as daft and dangerous as he he is. And still threatening Yingluck with harassment & death? What is going on here. I wouldn't take things too literally all the time, it isn't a very good foundation for logical debate... it's just a figure of speech nothing more than that, or as sinister as you may wish to allude to. I doubt his backers have warned him off anything. the moment I heard yesterday that they were pulling out, I thought that there is something bigger going to happen. Something a lot more effective than blocking registrations. The protesters and their leaders have proven time and again that they don't scare easily. Something is going down. I wish I knew what it was, but something is going down for them to do a big back peddle without warning. I am sure we will know in the next few days or so. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

toybits Posted December 25, 2013 Share Posted December 25, 2013 While it may have looks right for the anti-government protesters at that time - this clearly backfired on them. Not cool. Baad Suthep! Baaad! Over the past two days, some reporters were harassed by protesters and had difficulty doing their duty.

GreenSnapper Posted December 25, 2013 Share Posted December 25, 2013 'educated elites', huh? Yeah, OK. This is what many Western mass media claim. In their simplified views, there is only elite=bad, farmer=good. In reality, if you have visited the mob sites yourself, most people there are not elite, but rather common people. Suthep may believe he is elite, but he is probably as uneducated as every common rice farmer too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't worry some ghost or another is behind it all and a good ghost will eventually fix it - just like on the soaps, which of course are all based on fact. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
