Pheu Thai Party leader Jarupong cries foul as power, water cut at his home

[spirit47]

I love it...

[Robby nz]

Mr Jarupong commented that water and electricity are basic needs to lead a normal life. He said it's up to the public if they are fine with the fact that the PDRC shut all the basic facilities, create protests and block roads.

If water and electricity are basic needs to lead a normal life then there must be many thousands if not millions in this country who can not lead a normal life.

There are even schools without electricity and running water.

The minister should have thought about their plight when he was in power.

[Misterwhisper]

Hahaha.... Clinging onto power are you? It won't be the only power you will be losing.

Anyway, everyone knows that none of you ministers are at home, and are probably staying in the upper roof top penthouses of the Peninsula Hotel at 250,000 baht a night with open ended expense accounts all paid for by the taxpayer.

Are we stupid or what??

Interesting scenario. That might also explain why the government is unable to pay farmers for their pledged rice today as repeatedly promised.

Provoke, provoke, provoke until judicial coup and military coup kicks in.

" Mr Jarupong commented that water and electricity are basic needs to lead a normal life. "

It might be opportune to educate Mr. Jarupong that many of the people who regularly vote for Pheu Thai in this country do not having running water or electricity.

Pheu Thai Party leader/caretaker Interior Minister Jarupong Ruangsuwan urged human rights agencies to protect his basic rights

Shouldn't that be the job of the police?

Health care, medical, transport services, water and electricity are essential services. Intentionally disrupting these services are illegal and against humanity.

Most definitely. I assume his family is also affected. I used to find it hard to understand why so many TV members find this sort of thing acceptable, not any more, I just pity their sad little lives.

[Crushdepth]

probably not a good idea to walk down that Human Rights road ......

Maybe he wants to be towed out to sea in a boat with no engine and cast adrift, like the Rohingya?

Many? Which part of deepest, darkest Isaan do you live in?

But that's a different issue altogether. The Philippines have regular brownouts, even Malaysia suffers from this as well. What do you mean by adequate electricity anyway?

The paid southern and yellow Mob seems to becomes frustrated a bit

[bunny11kk]

If he was in jail where he belongs he'd have plenty of food and water, and if he pays the guards enough, he could still Skype daily with his master abroad.

I love this but I'm afraid he would move to Four Season before that. Although I'm Thai, I truly believe there is no justice here. No matter what, the wonder crab woman and it's injustice league have to be removed.

Nothing compare to the Red achievement! His house did not get burn down or pour blood. He can move to St Regis to monitor the Bangkok shutdown in the presidential suite. That's not so bad.

Does the word "justice" even exist in the Thai language?

[Thait Spot]

I see there's lots of sympathy on here for the government.

Hahaha

Thanks to all you posters above

Move into your summer mansion or into the Ritz Carlton. I'm sure as a PTP minister, you can afford it.

And your electricity and water were just cut. At least you didn't have bombs lobbed into your house.

But why should have have to move out of his home? You wouldn't be happy if this happened to your family home! Basic human right!! Respect it. Im on no colours but its out of order, my business is a mess because people think they can do what the hell he want! This should be fought out in the thai house of parliament and not out on the streets like a bunch of cave mens!!!! Sent from my iPhone using Thaivisa Connect Thailand

Hello ... this is Thailand ... where fair and legal are irrelevant

No ... nothing to respect

Did his leader respect any human rights during his war on drugs or during the events at the southern mosque?

I wonder how many people in Thailand don't even have that. And no option to go to a fancy hotel....

and how many (almost all) have power and water cut off frequently. I know for me it's an expected occurrence. I think that power has gone out 4 times already this year. Edge of muang chiangmai, hardly the sticks. Just an expected part of life here. However, it does suck not having power and/or water so I do have sympathy, however not too much.

[SOTIRIOS]

...any details or even confirmation....or just more fiction....

...the only group organized enough to throw bombs or send in black shirts...and instigate other 'mysterious occurrences' we are told...is the government..

[ginjag]

My comment to him. OOOhhh diddums do it to you we all feel so hurt.

Anyway how many homes have you got-surely you have options ??? In hundreds of ways your party have kicked Thai people in the teeth, now you cry you are being targeted. Your all the same ---because you are affected it's not fair. get real grow up MP.

[Mosha]

Damn so the daily power cuts are an infringement on my human rights.
