Chalerm says CMPO has surprise for PDRC in afternoon

[Blackmirage2013]

Yingluck would have to be out of town and preferably out of the country before Chalerm will be unleashed.

I wouldn't be surprised if he was being set up as a sacrifice by PT/Thaksin. Chalerm "acting on his own" clears out the protesters and arrests the leaders, and is then held responsible for any casualties. This would rid PT of two problems at once!

Jeeeeeez, this guy Chalerm is really a horrible leader. Does he do anything right? Does he ever tell the truth? Does he have any respect for anyone? Does he have any character or ANY redeeming qualities???!!!!

[Blackmirage2013]

He's going to hold a press conference sober AND say something intelligent ! ?

Sure, sure.... and E does not equal MC squared......

[AleG]

Watching Chalerm these past 2 weeks, one senses that he has been laying out his trap and taunting Suthep along the way. Psychological pressure increased by small increments.

Oh dear... Trying to convince us that Chalerm is a bright person with a very smart strategy. GK you are really funny.

Hey, if you ask nicely he'll also tell you how Yingluck being always absent and making no decisions is the acme of leadership... unless he brushes you off by telling you how it is beneath his social status to talk with a condescending elitist like you.

She is. Reports this morning. She is in Ayyutha showing that she is a good Buddhist and family mum. PR pieces abound with her and son patting a gold Buddha.

Can't she do this in Bangkok???? Why do it in Ayudha????

Thought?

The PM is monitoring the situation. Ayuthaya is not that far away. This is a police operation and the government ministers responsible for public safety have the matter well in hand. As the squatter sites being cleared were somewhat empty and there is no trouble (yet), the carefully planned operation is proceeding on schedule. By attending to a public function, the PM provides reassurance to the public that law and order will prevail. We are fortunate to have a brave and courageous PM who has acted to prevent bloodshed and needless violence. Her dedication to the well being of the nation will be appreciated over time.

[siampolee]

Seems as if the surprise is out of the bag see the image below. Chalerm has shocked us all, he has or is about to become a reformed character.

Good post Kid but unfortunately in the wrong forum.. Jokes, puzzles make my day is the forum where it belongs.

[lemonjelly]

Chalerm's started early this morning, probably plastered by now.

[backtonormal]

Free Lunch at the Dusit Thani for the first poster to bring thaivisa an image of Suthep in bright orange and resticted leg movements

[Why ask]

I am astonished daily that this barfly BS artist is given so much authority and power. He's dangerous, belligerent and possibly on the sauce. Lets face it, not a good combination at any time. Still at least he's not Tarit.

"possibly on the sauce"

Can I ask the yellow mob on here. If we see Suthep in chains, do you have any problem if the pro government lobby claim yet another victory (with arms tied behind back) Losing is a culture

[kikoman]

IMO they are all afraid to give the order to "supress" any protest site. If they do and violence ensues ... then who ever was in on giving the order will ave to be responsible and be held accountable in a court of law ... like what they are tying to do to Abhisit and Suthep for the 2010 protest supression

How wrong you are! every one was watching what was being done not to give the Army an excuse to stage a Coup,

The complete FAILURE of the stop the vote! Indicated to the Army that the vast majorities of Thai's backed the Thai Democracy!

Cheers

If Chalerm is supposed to be the cure, there's not much point labeling disease.

He's cool. Ask his son.

[Sunderland]

Police back off protest sites. Even SWAT teams in Thailand have to observe Thai lunch ... 3 hour break and then they'll be back at work.

His announcement of a suprise is probably not a suprise to anyone other than him.

That he has been a Puppet and Sacraficial Lamb.

Maybe he will make good on his promises for once and do what he said he was going to do by the end 2013.

Huge wooden horse with bow seen making its way to the protest site!

today was chosen as everyone would be attending temples throughout the country

The police might succeed today in clearing some sites but there will be hell to pay tomorrow for this corrupt lying bunch of thieves - lets see how brave they are when they are facing 1 million on the streets instead of a few elderly ladies praying to buddha (really brave men with Charlerm at the front leading the charge)

Tense confrontation on Chaengwattana protest site



BANGKOK: -- Situation at the ant-government protest site on Chaengwattana road is tense before noon today when hundreds of anti-riot police and thousands of protesters are confronting each other with instruction from the Center of the Maintaining of Peace and Order (CMPO) telling all protesters to leave.

The possible forced eviction is expected by this afternoon when CMPO director Chalerm Yoobamrung hinted of a big news for the protest leader Suthep Thaugsuban.

In a press conference before noon, Chalerm showed weapon he claimed were seized during this morning’s operation to evict the two sites of protesters on Ratchadamnern road.

The weapon showed firecracker bombs, iron pellets, urea fertilizer, Bai Krathom leaves.

He vowed that the operation to evict protesters will go on non-stop but said the police would not use force.

By 11.30 a.m. today, anti-riot police with an armored vehicle were moving slowly in a pincer movement from the front and rear of the protest site on Chaengwattana road.

Protesters were retreating as the police slowly moving in cordons with prison trucks on the front line while protesters also were retreating to their last barricade near the protest stage. Their leader Luang Poo Buddhaissara is now heavily surrounded by guards.

Meanwhile unidentified group of people, believed to be red-shirts are reported gathering nearby.

The abbot told all supporters to sit down on the road and prayed.

Earlier in the morning, thousands of anti-riot police under the command of Metropolitan Police Commissioner Pol Lt-Gen Kamronvit Thoopkracharng successfully evicted two protest sites of the anti-government protesters at Yaek Misakawan and Chamaimaruches bridge.

There was no resistance at the two sites when police marched along the Ratchadamnoen Avenue to evict the protest sites.

But protest leaders said that the two sites are not their permanent sites but abandoned and occupied only by a small number of protesters at their own.

PDRC leaders held urgent meeting today and all declared firmly that they would never let the police to evict their major encampment at the Interior Ministry.

They vowed to fight to the end but with peaceful means.

This is a bad move when all the granny clappers go home because anybody still there will be facing more than words. I think thats how its been planned to let the innocent protestors move away peacfully. Anybody gets hurt after this point has no complaints

Hilarious. Her governments $6.1bn per annum losses in rice will definitely be remembered over time. Her dedication to this populist policy will go down in history as one of SE Asia's biggest political blunders ever!

As for monitoring the situation. I do not believe she is in the decision making process whatsoever, hence a family day out instead of trying to manage a way out of a crisis.

Brave and courageous. You really need to expand on that one, as I don't see a scrap of it based on past performance.

As for bloodshed I sense, and fear, it is more likely than not, before all this is over. Sadly.

[Red Snake]

The monk wants violence to happen. The police are trying to avoid it but don't expect the monks men to sit and let the police take them away, They will use weapons that Ahbitsit says the protester don't have.

[bkkjames]

I imagine that he has allowed the sale and consumption of booze today as a special ammendment to the soe?

It is good that the RTP are finally confronting this problem and all the obstructions.

It is a bit too late now and especially with the Beligerant Fool of the CMPO wearing his "Red Shirt" today and spouting off threats as usual.

Hardly Diplomatic trying to resolve the issues at hand using his tactics of Threats and Heavy Handedness by having the Riot control Police armed with Assault Weapons and Shotguns.

All this probably got the attention of the Malitia and YS knew her term would be up for sure today if Mr C carried on.

As well as any future charges for excessive use of force by the Government under her Premiership.

The Government can not hope to regain control with those 2 baffoons running the show.

5555 You have to be some strange character to post such a straight comment on this comical issue. Do you also sit down to pea.

If there was ever a man that deserved to reap the whirlwind, it is that buffoon mouth breather Chalerm.

It's this kind of talk that makes men not want to surprise anyone on valentines day. Let him do his surprise first, then judge him.
