webfact Posted March 4, 2014 Share Posted March 4, 2014 Surapong: Protests must end before confidence can be restoredBANGKOK: -- Caretaker Deputy Prime Minister and Foreign Minister Surapong Tovichakchaikul yesterday urged private sectors to ask the anti-government protesters to end their rally first and then he would help restore confidence of foreign investors to re-investment in Thailand.Seven private-sector organisations that have offered a mediating role in the political conflict on Monday pressed for negotiation to find solutions for the political turmoil that is beginning to damage the country's basic economic foundation. They also urged the government to lift the state of emergency.Surapong said he agreed and was ready to support the proposal but he was not sure if the People's Democratic Reform Committee (PDRC) protesters would agree with it."If its leader Suthep [Thaugsuban] still stages the rallies I don't know how to explain to and convince the investors," the chief adviser to the Centre for Maintaining Peace and Order (CMPO) said.He said if the violence decreases in the future and the re-run of election can be held smoothly the government may lift some measures under the decree ordered by Civil Court.-- The Nation 2014-03-04 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post huanga Posted March 4, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted March 4, 2014 (edited) On top of the protest must end, Surapong and his ring circus that's called CMPO also must end before the confidence can be restored. While they going at it, throw in the Y-luck's government, DSI with it too. No one has any confidence in any of this bunch of clowns that they call themselves politicians or "robbers" cloaked as politicians!

Dogmatix Posted March 4, 2014 Share Posted March 4, 2014 The SOE must end before tourism can start to recover. The PDRC rallies have all but ended but the Suraphong's own reds are going into top gear preparing to cut up rough about Yingluck's indictment over the rice pledging scandal. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If i was a potential investor looking at Thailand, weighing the safety of my money, i definitely wouldn't make my decision based on a peaceful rally in a park. My concerns would be, a government that has proven that they can't balance the books, work within the laws of the country, and are destined for dissolution. Money loves stability. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

smovi57 Posted March 4, 2014 Share Posted March 4, 2014 The protests will end when her and the family are out of office. And with any luck the country. Now with murder charges brought against her that should not take long. About 2 weeks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robby nz Posted March 4, 2014 Share Posted March 4, 2014 Surely a country that is in a state of emergency must be a big put off for any investor or tourist. However Khun Surapong says a SOE must continue. After all they asked the national budget bureau for 10 billion and if the SOE is scrapped they wont have justification for keeping those billions.

ManofReason Posted March 4, 2014 Share Posted March 4, 2014 (edited) Wow this thread is like a funeral wake. What Thailand needs is exactly what Surapong is calling for: 1. Suthep needs to pack up the last 3 tents and organize a trip back south for the 6 wheelchair grannies 2. The frivolous, politically motivated law suits need to be dropped 3. The PDRC individuals with outstanding arrest warrants need to be apprehended by the police and held accountable for their crimes 4. The Democratic party should probably be disbanded for repeatably boycotting royally sanctioned elections 5. Might as well round up the PAD crims still on the loose (to show the world that the rule of law is still functioning in LOS) 6. The ongoing elections must be completed without disruption by the unruly mob and the result must be respected. 7. The campaign by this lawless mob to prevent payments being made to the innocent rice farmers must be ceased 8. Abhisit and Suthep should have to front court to face the multiple murder charges hanging over their head 9. The "popcorners" responsible for firing on and killing police just trying to do their job should by identified and jailed 10. Lastly, something will have to be done to get that mad monk on the streets out at Chang Wattana As soon as we get these things done the SOE is gone and we're back in business Chop chop - Songkran is just around the corner Edited March 4, 2014 by ManofReason 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"BANGKOK: -- Caretaker Deputy Prime Minister and Foreign Minister Surapong Tovichakchaikul yesterday urged private sectors to ask the anti-government protesters to end their rally first and then he would help restore confidence of foreign investors to re-investment in Thailand." It would appear that the government is more interested in getting people with money to have confidence in them than they are getting their own people to have confidence in them.

Soutpeel Posted March 4, 2014 Share Posted March 4, 2014 Yk and family out doesn't mean the country would become better. It depends on the ability and transparency of the next government. Maybe not but its a start at least, in the last 13 years I have been here there is always the same common denominator which comes up as regards problems/issues in government..... Thaksin of Arabia The biggest thing for me is a government which accountable to the country, with no self interest in getting their snouts in the trough Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
3NUMBAS Posted March 4, 2014 Share Posted March 4, 2014 no no. if she goes that means the thugs will have forced her out setting a precedent for future thug rabble to do the same ,you cant eradicate the thaksin effect its too ingrained as he is the good guy compared with the selfish and ruthless forerunners .

Send the minister for ear medicine to AA or rehab 15. PTP disbanded for being the lying cheating thieves they are 16. Ban anyone with the shinawatra surname from public office for life 11. Murder charges for Yingluck? You want to hold her accountable for the actions of as yet unidentified individuals? Bizarre. The fact is none of us know if it was or wasn't the Popcorners that actually launched the grenade at Big C killing a child. Only one side took to the stage every night and sought to exploit the child deaths in this conflict. Cui bono! (who benefits?). I see the police today have just arrested a couple of Sutheps' boys with a huge cache of arms, including grenades - peaceful indeed. Abhisit and Suthep gave direct orders which resulted in the murder of a great many people. Huge, huge difference. So there may be a (pointless) hearing, but there'll be no murder charges filed against Yingluck. With illogical reasoning like you've shown here, you may as well charge Yingluck for being in the drivers seat of the Red Bull kids Ferrari?) 12. Rice scheme accountability - that is the role of the parliamentary opposition. So as soon as the Democrats "nut-up" and do their job you'll be able to have all the government accountability you desire. Again, no frivolous charges to be had here. 13. Lets have a proper trial for the man first, the last one was clearly a witch hunt with the sole aim of obtaining a conviction. Guilty or not, one thing is for sure, the corruption that occurred in relation to the land that resulted in the trumped up conviction of Thaksin was of a great many magnitudes larger before any Shinawatra's showed up on the scene than after they showed up. Research the Erawan corporation that initially owned the land, the list of former appointed PM's and the hundreds of millions of US dollars involved makes anything Thaksin may have done look laughably insignificant. 14. Charlem has kicked ass. He has reduced Sutheps' richly funded, elite backed protest movement to 4 guys standing under a tree beside a pond. I say promote the man then sit back and watch the nation boom. 15. Sorry, you only get to illegally disband a political organisation twice. 16. Seems a rather pointless move, you are aware it is possible to change your surname. Thaksin Mandela - has a nice ring to it doesn't it. The Singha beer chick has already lead the way with name changing gig. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
