Robby nz Posted February 2, 2014 Share Posted February 2, 2014 He wont file a complaint for hitting someone..........Wonder is the one who he was hitting will file a complaint ? Would seem there is plenty of evidence. But at least he didn't have his big hammer with him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scamper Posted February 2, 2014 Share Posted February 2, 2014 I guess one is to assume that the man he held in a head-lock and repeatedly hit him is not filing a complaint either, though strangely the article didn't think that necessary to note ! Chuwit's image can be seen on campaign posters in the North with arms outstretched, gesticulating exuberance among the people. Those arms it seems are quite versatile.

Popular Post millwall_fan Posted February 2, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted February 2, 2014 My wife says that Channel 9 says he DID get to vote. The Channel 9 footage show him casually walking up to the PDRC and saying ' listen boys, i'm going to vote and we can do this peacefully or not....' It turned out 'not' He did bring 20 'helpers' with him apparently. As mentioned above Chuwit is hardly camera shy, and to describe him as a 'Thai party leader' is not to paint the full picture, but good on him - at least he had the balls to go out and try to vote. He hates Thaksin too so all you PDRC supporters on TV can enjoy this little episode!! 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
noitom Posted February 2, 2014 Share Posted February 2, 2014 It looked like some sort of group of Thai staff in the typical dark bush jacket type attire were ganging up on someone. It looked like Chuwit never got a swing in. At least the guy that went up against Chuwit had the character to go at him alone , whereas Chuwit needed his "staff." Thais love to gang up rather than have a good go single handed. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post BlueNoseCodger Posted February 2, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted February 2, 2014 (edited) Ladies and Gentlemen, this is a Thai candidate, with an inspiration to become PM. God help us. At least this guy has the balls to do his best to vote whilst undemocratic scum try to stop him Chewit has a long history: He was captured by a corrupt police officer years ago after refusing the pay a bribe. He escaped, went to the press to ensure he stayed free. He is popular and was expected to win his seat. Suthep tried to get him to join Suthep's PDRC thugs, he declined, and made it clear to everyone that they should vote. PDRC have the polling boxes for his voting station, so he was unable to vote. Here he is before the election urging people to vote and saying he will be voting at Din Daeng polling station, if they want to try to stop him. An interesting side note from yesterday. The army cleared the area of all protestors, but did not release the polling boxes for the elections. (added, it's a funny video, he say if people want to stop him, this is what he'll have, then goes to draw a gun.. id card!)

He was lucky that Chuvit's bodyguards did not make him swallow his stupid whistle! Now Chuvit had his men around him - what about other voters who are alone and intimidated by these rather primitive individuals? Thai citizens have every right to vote - while the protesters do have NO RIGHT to try and stop them! You don't want to vote stay home! - don't try to intimidate others! And this just out now - the man did not only blow his whistle at him but attacked and hit Chuvit in the face.

EyesWideOpen Posted February 2, 2014 Share Posted February 2, 2014 Hahaha yes he has been strangely silent during the protests. Guess there has not been any police owned casinos to shut down... :-) Also strange he would seek confrontation. Guess he is not aware of the old saying " the enemy of my enemy is my friend".

h90 Posted February 2, 2014 Share Posted February 2, 2014 Ladies and Gentlemen, this is a Thai, Party leader, with an inspiration to become PM. God help us. Well I would prefer him 1000 times before any other Shinawatra....At least he has something like a mafia style honor.... Brawl with the protesters....but we won't need the police......A Shinawatra would sue them for 1 wrong word.....They opened 500 law suits against Sondhi only for his speeches.... As Chuvit is the only one who worked himself in an open market and is surely 1000 % smarter than the current PM. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post slapout Posted February 2, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted February 2, 2014 After watching the video of the altercation, I will give Chuwit his due, he got right back up and took it to them. No waiting to hide behind body guards, or 6 of them ganging up on one, just got down to what he has done for decades, grab the bull by the balls and give it a good pull. The young punk may have second thoughts the next time about going after the older folks. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's a nice man, and you just want to demonize him for propaganda, but it doesn't work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
