Red Shirt supporters told not to wear red

[Clutch]

Brown shirts all round? It made a point decades ago. .... Apologies to the BIB, just a coincidence.

[FangFerang]

You punters picking a side and rooting for it know as well as everyone else that this is not linear logic. Stop pretending. Stop posting with eyes wide shut.

Both sides are pirates, all waiting for the Captain to fall.

Sad you choose sides. They are all bastiches.

[assayer]

Fools on all sides of this chaos, and Thida is yet another of them. Horrible old witch who will make you feel like scratching your own eyes out if you listen to her for more than 2 minutes. Just another example of the mad people who try to be leaders in this battle.

The USA is also blessed with their own Thida. Her name is Hilary!!!!

[fab4]

"Thida Thavornseth, leader of the United Front for Democracy against Dictatorship (UDD), said she received a report regarding unscrupulous people possibly wearing red outfits feigning to be UDD members in creating unrest an activity that could eventually lead to a coup."

Precisely

It works both ways doesn't it? We can have some Shinawatra scum wearing the flag and whistle and causing trouble.

Don't suppose you do humour, do you?

[Why ask]

So following suit, any protestors do not wear a Thai flag colour, and they can all mix and mingle.... and kick shit out of each other when they realise.................

This is a call for civil war by the typical Red style, who do not want to be accounted for violence, just as they incite it.

Well Done. 10/10 for thoughtlessness. Continued idiocrasy from the rouge.

[Arkady]

The banks have not all refused to lend the government money. The MoF conducted an auction today where banks bid for how much loan stock or bills of exchange or whatever they are willing to take at what interest rate. The issuer (MoF) fills his requirement taking the lowest interest rates offered. In this case because there is no firm government guarantee the banks bid high interest rates to compensate for a real. Risk of default. We don't know if the MoF got bids for the entire B20bn or not cos they were unhappy with the interest rate and cancelled the auction.

Good luck to Thida in trying to force directors of banks to abandon their fiduciary responsibilities to please her re shirt bully boys.

Latest news announcement:

All you FARANG red skirt followers bank accounts are going to be frozen, because you guys didn't go on the streets to protest that your bank wouldn't help your own poor farmers, shame on you…..

[BlueNoseCodger]

Lol of course they would blame the banks and not the government for the rice farmers not getting paid. So typical of these people, it's always other peoples' fault but never the fault of themselves or their Shinawatra masters.

Actually they blame the corruption riddled through government introduced by the coup:

Since when is the winning election the measurement of someone's intelligence? All it takes is a clever shepherd and sheep will follow. Sheep aren't particularly clever, are they?

They are definitely dishonest. All that talk about non-violence is just massive pile of crap. Their radical wing is actually preparing for the war. Not only preparing for the war, they seem to be itching for it. Pay attention to the photo. Bloody lunatic.

Thai red shirts leader says 'It's time to get rid of the elite' As election day approaches in Thailand, supporters of prime minister Yingluck Shinawatra vow to take to the barricades in her defence...

"This is already a war, but so far it is an unarmed war," said Ko Tee. "If there is a coup, or the election doesn't happen, then it definitely becomes an armed war."

If anyone doubted the abyss into which Thailand could be heading, Ko Tee - who has been accused of orchestrating grenade attacks on anti-government marches in the thai capital - is the living proof.

"I want there to be lots of violence to put an end to all this," he said. "I'm bored by speeches. It's time to clean the country, to get rid of the elite, all of them."

Perhaps abandoning the red shirts is part of the guerrilla plan.

From the same Telegraph story. http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/worldnews/asia/thailand/10606562/Thai-red-shirts-leader-says-Its-time-to-get-rid-of-the-elite.html

"If there is a coup, of course I'll go to Bangkok and fight," said Phutthiphong Khamhaengphon, the head of security for Khon Kaen's red shirts. "Millions of us will go. We'll fight in many different ways. If necessary, it will be like the Vietcong fighting the Americans in Vietnam: a guerrilla war."

[thaisaregrt]

well its no surprize really, after killing the protester the other day because he was wearing the protester shirt the reds are scared of reprisals and they are the only ones allowed to kill people wearing their "colours"

[samuidave]

Ms Thida expressed sympathy to farmers who have not been paid for the rice they sold under the r]

To be fair. If Yingluck had not yielded to Suthep they would be paid by now. The problem for Yingluck is that under her rule the government is selling rice, but not Thai rice, rather inferior imported and vastly cheaper rice from Cambodia and who is getting the money? This tidbit of info comes from a person within the government that on Tuesday applied for a high paying job at a recruiting agency that a certain person works for. He is sick to the bone of what is happening, myself included...

BS. The money was due 5 months ago. She stepped down less than 2 months ago.

There is no intention or ability to pay. It isa high profile robbery with designs to impoverish as many as possible while enriching the people that matter.

Well if she hadnt stepped down she probably would have paid them by now... but would have borrowed he money or forced the national banks to payroll it...

... and left a huge debt for the Thai people... which would have been hidden from view for as long as possible...

just be thankful the cookie jar got snapped shut when it did...

Bloody idiots. These animals are just looking for an excuse to use their guns and knives. I would like to see how the red sympathizers here in Bangkok will react when these communists really decide to purge the 'elites'. With their limited intellect and mentality, anyone who is middle class or even just richer than the downtrodden farmers will be considered 'elites' and will deserve a 'purge'. Looks like everyone who has airconditioning and an internet connection are going to get macheted.

Purge the bourgeois elites. Where have we heard that before in history? And the Shinawatras lovers are calling Suthep a 'fascist'.

Ms Thida expressed sympathy to farmers who have not been paid for the rice they sold under the rice pledging scheme and criticised some commercial banks for refusing to extend loans for the government’s payment.

“UDD members will stage protests against those banks on behalf of farmers countrywide after the election,” she said.

Here we go, it's not the government's fault, it's the nasty banks not giving them loans for paying the farmers....

How would they have raised the money, considering the last time they tried (before becoming caretakers), they only got half the amount they were looking for?

[GentlemanJim]

What glaringly stands out in this article and absolutely typifies the PTP and the UDD is Thida said "criticised some commercial banks for refusing to extend loans for the government’s payment" and "UDD members will stage protests against those banks on behalf of farmers countrywide"

Government lie to farmers that they had the money. (According to the UDD this is OK)

The World bank and Moody's told the PTP to rethink the rice scheme because it could cost too much and the PTP may run out of funds to pay for it. (According to the UDD this is out of line for the World Bank and IMF to say this)

PTP told them to get f*kced because they did have the money. (UDD stand by the PTP)

PTP are dissolved and a day later state they have no money for rice farmers. (UDD - Ummm, wait, wait so we can blame someone else)

EC deny request based on Section 181 of the constitution which states that a caretaker cabinet is prohibited from approving any work or project, or creating a binding commitment upon the next government, and shall not exploit state resources or personnel for any act which may affect an election. So the EC had no authority to consider the loan request. (YESSSSSS. Blame the EC)

Next avenue is bridging loans with banks. (Continue to blame EC until we can blame someone else. A blame shared is a blame halved right?)

​32 banks did not show up and 2 offered loans that the PTP passed up due to high interest rate. Banks justification for not offering loans was that the banks where very hesitant to loan a govt money for a corruption riddled scheme and the potential backlash if the loan was was found unconstitutional. (YESSSSSSSS. Blame the EC and the banks)

So the EC and the Banks don't want to break the law yet are held responsible.

The quicker this terrorist wing of the PTP splinter and break up the better.

Genuine question as I have not seen the details written anywhere. Who are the two banks that agreed to give loans to the rice scam, anybody know?

A face only a soi dog could tolerate.

A remark that perhaps only a soi dog could make.

What relevance does her appearance, or your opinion of her appearance, have to the subject, Adonis?

[MrSlatersParrot]

"Thida Thavornseth, leader of the United Front for Democracy against Dictatorship (UDD), said she received a report regarding unscrupulous people possibly wearing red outfits feigning to be UDD members in creating unrest – an activity that could eventually lead to a coup."

Precisely

Please note.

He is not protesting in China town is he?

Something happened there didn't it?

[aimbc]

This the same as the Current Protesters not wearing Yellow?

Yes, they seem to be late too the party all the time.

And the real reason she has asked her supporter not to wear red is because there are enough supporters. We know that most of her supporters currently are the violent factions. The regular crowds would not come out to support them. First she cancels the "Mass Rally" scheduled for Friday and now she announces that they should not wear red. Because they just don't have the numbers of honest red supporter and not just the crazy bunch.

Tomorrow, she will announce something else. Her strategy is to at least stay relevant as PDRC is getting a lot of press attention. Because she has really nothing to offer. Not even blasting the govt for not paying the farmers who she used to help PTP win. She is as spineless as a person get.
