Popular Post Snig27 Posted April 26, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted April 26, 2014 <script type='text/javascript'>window.mod_pagespeed_start = Number(new Date());</script> Everything as expected here then. Cunning of Abhisit and Suthep. They both know the end is in sight. Still can't see the EC or the PTP agreeing to a free and fair election. After all..... It wouldn't be Thailand without a bent election. The end is in sight? Ah, that must this new final push, right? Damn you are right. These guys are smart. They've had a grand strategy all this time. Collapsing numbers, civil unrest, making grand statements assigning themselves sovereign roles in the nation, 7 or 8 final pushes, extorting money from businesses, thuggery in the park and international condemnation: it's all so very, very cunning. So cunning in fact that you seem to have been the only one smart enough to have worked it all out. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post diehard60 Posted April 26, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted April 26, 2014 ""Whoever he is, no one should dare appoint himself as the mediator," Suthep said. "Whether he is my acquaintance, my former colleague or my friend, don't poke your nose in other people's business." What is it with this retard suthep? Why do any of you love him so much when it is very obvious what he is trying to do. he should be arrested for insurection and treason. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roadman Posted April 26, 2014 Share Posted April 26, 2014 I remember seeing a photo not long after Pheu Thai and Yingluck won the election...it was with among a party of four Yingluck and Abhisat jointly standing against corruption....I though then if you could deliver that vision Thailand would move forward in leaps and bounds...Good Leaders do not have to be excellent scholar's. Some have a vision or just the wisdom to know what is right....the Shinawatra blood is perhaps to thick for Yingluck to be an excellent Thai PM. I suspect that Thaksin may yet get his amnesty in return for staying out of politics. Perhaps Suthep's days are getting numbered to along with a few others.

Nobody loves Suthep...is he just a necessary evil pit ball dragging at the peoples court fugitive convicted criminal Thaksins testicles while the courts deliver the KO blow. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Yim Posted April 26, 2014 Share Posted April 26, 2014 PDRC leader says he will only listen to the 'great masses' The Great leader listening to the great masses..........Oh!

gabruce Posted April 26, 2014 Share Posted April 26, 2014 I'm curious why 'Mark' decided now was the time to finally 'grow a pair', but I'm encouraged that he may now (finally) turn into the leader I once expected him to be. The standoff between him and Suthep may well indicate that the unseen hands have concluded that Suthep is now a spent force and its time to regroup. Lets hope for the good of all of us 'Mark' finally recalls all that Oxford education and puts it good use. Time will tell On the contrary he has shown nothing but cowardice, cynicism and naked ambition.However he is not without intelligence and realises that Suthep and his pack of Southern thugs and middle class useful idiots have served their purpose - namely to destabilise politics so that a non elected PM can take over with the help of a friendly judiciary.You are right however to conclude that the forces backing and financing Suthep have concluded that despite numerous "final efforts", he has failed.Abhisit who cannot win a fair election sees his chance now and is trying to project himself as a reasonable voice.I cannot pretend to have any special insight as to whether he has any chance of success.He could be discarded by the old elites quite easily.Nevertheless his effrontery is breathtaking given that he represents a substantial part of the problem.Courage, an indispensable virtue for a successful politician, is not his forte.His character is part ambitious political hack and part frightened rabbit. Wow. You must know Thai politics and Abhisit much better than I do. Nothing you say agrees with what I know and have seen and read. Honestly I don't know whether your ignorance exceeds my or you know something I don't. Being selfish and human, for now I will stick with my beliefs.

Morch Posted April 26, 2014 Share Posted April 26, 2014 At least we got a bunch of Thai politicians babbling and spewing their nonsense in one article, rather than spreading it all over. Suthep: "I will only listen to masses/people" (if they say what he wants to hear). Suthep: "no one should appoint himself mediator" (yeah...best to wait until kingdom come). Suthep: "don't poke your nose in other people's business" (because this is only Suthep's and the PDRC's business?) Abhisit: 10 days or it's failure (doing a Chalerm now?). Abhisit: "reform is a key element for the resolution; an election is a requirement no matter when it happens; and the election is a crucial part of reform." (the Master Yoda impersonation). Chalerm: "The politician's chain has already become rusty. Nobody trusts politicians anymore" (....) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr Yim Posted April 26, 2014 Share Posted April 26, 2014 I suspect, if Abhisit's initiative is acceptable to all parties (Suthep excluded). The General will call an end to Suthep and the mass protests in Lupini Park. Suthep will then have to think of another way to avoid his day in court as I am sure he wont be able to finance his own security. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh trust me, I never once meant to suggest that Mark hasn't displayed the usual Thai political traits of Cowardice & Cynicism, that's almost a given that all of them will use whatever it takes in order to advance their own ambition. What I was trying to suggest, was that when he first was summoned back from England I thought/imagined/hoped that since he was born, raised and educated in a Western Democracy he might have risen above the fray and given true democratic leadership and develop a One Nation policy, not one focused on the rich elite. If he had, he may have propelled the Democrats to a true election victory under the 1997 constitution, which I to this day believe was superior than what we have today. But instead, he chose to succumb to the usual corrupt, Suthep/Thaksinesque politics of graft, the results of which have been evident. This current outpouring, and I'm giving him the benefit of the doubt here, may be a belated realization of his past failures. His future as a politician is over, he probably at some deep level knows that, he's so tainted with the past that he could never lead the country and bring it together. What he hopefully is thinking that for his legacy to at least be somewhat positive, his future may be to help the country back to the democratic path his background should have brought him to a decade ago. What on earth led you to the idea that one raised and educated in the most elite of establishments in England would develop into an egalitarian politician? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The most important issues of the present time DID start prior and after the Election near 3 years ago. Election promises---not fulfilled-------election oath --not fulfilled--------transparent government/corruption free--not fulfilled-----------pushing bills through without debate----illegal-------------proper accounts for contracts/ schemes seemingly not kept--------------------ON RECORD a PM who rarely attended debates, and was missing for most important ones. These are the reasons why normal elections cannot take place, the government HAS to be investigated first. Remember all other past episodes and leaders should not come into this present situation.

kurtgruen Posted April 26, 2014 Share Posted April 26, 2014 Has Suthep gone political mad ? Or is this a good cop bad cop situations, where the two are working together behind the scenes. Lets take a closer look Abhisit now looks like the good guy in all of this, Yingluck is the idiot hanging onto power by her teeth and will not let go She can not defeat Suthep, so agree with Abhisit as she thinks he can not defeat Suthep all the time this is part of the plan Abhisit talk to Suthep when all of thailand are looking for a saviour Suthep agrees with Abhisit Abhisit become a Statesman and the true hero for Thailand and at the election will walk into power with a massive majority Maybe this is all a dream, or a well planed operation It has been done before in many situation and worked So is this the trap that will get rid of the Sinawats for good just an opinion, at the end of the 10 days we will have the answer Its got to be better the the other plan Suthep has gone mad with power and will lead Thailand in to Civil war against the Red shirt Leader who wants the same thing Suthep is not looking for civil war. He never was. The courts are on the side of the "current" laws, which PT, Yingluck and Thaksin keep ignoring and fighting. So the only ones, who could have possibly benefited from a civil war, is the Red side. (I really believe nobody would benefit from a civil war) The only ones, who have done "saber rattling", has been the UDD and Reds. A bunch of whackos , as I see it and most people in Thailand, I believe are getting tired of the red rhetoric. They can't even get a decent demonstration together anymore. Never mind trying to get a "mass rally" As far as the rest of the above comments. Yes, I do believe it is all a game. A game of chess played by mediocre players on both sides. As always, the pawns are first to get wiped out, which is the sad part. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scamper Posted April 26, 2014 Share Posted April 26, 2014 (edited) Seeing fissures between Abhisit and Suthep is surprising only to those who have ignored them. A major element of Pheu Thai supporters' narrative is that they have been joined at the hip. That was always a fictional narrative, but it served Pheu Thai's talking points well. Whatever Suthep did or did not do, to be sure Thaksin and Pheu Thai would attempt to tie Abhisit into it. But now the fissures are apparent even to Pheu Thai supporters. From the start however, the relationship between Suthep and the Democratic party has been guarded. They share the fundamental nature of the argument, but have parted ( respectfully ) on the tactics. It was inevitable - as this crisis drew to a close - that these fissures would become more pronounced. And they have. But the nature of this crisis is not revealed in the fissures between the PDRC and the Democratic party only. Fissures are appearing all over the place in Pheu Thai and the UDD. Just take for example the reaction to Abhisit's recent address. Yingluck found it " a good beginning " but wanted to " study " it, ( big surprise ) but foresaw that it could take some time - which seemed to infer a preferable and joyfully indeterminate and non-committal reality. Chalerm said he would speak to Abhisit alone ( ! ) though he wanted an election first and then reform " later " ( presumably as Thaksin had defined it in the last two and half years ). But Pheu Thai official spokesmen dismissed it out of hand. Aren't Pheu Thai supposed to speak with one voice ? And of course the UDD is off in Neverland against the independent agencies and the Constitutional Court, and constructing childish mock videos of Abhisit's address. Having said all this, Abhisit is emerging more as the mature one in the room. The advantage of this is that he would be the man one would most instinctively move towards if ever a move towards dialogue were ever to take place between the parties and participants. The disadvantage of it is - - what if he is the only mature one in the room ? Edited April 26, 2014 by Scamper 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rickirs Posted April 26, 2014 Share Posted April 26, 2014 Now I understand Suthep. He only listens to the voices IN HIS HEAD! But at least Abhisit lives in the real world and desires to listen to all sides of the political conflict to resolve issues. Abhisit may sometimes have his head up his a*** but at least he occasionally pulls it out into the real world. I'm afraid Suthep's head has become permanently sutured. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
northernjohn Posted April 26, 2014 Share Posted April 26, 2014 Prime Minister Yingluck Shinawatra described Abhisit's effort as a "good beginning" to allow the country to get out of the ongoing impasse and move forward. She said that she would have to study his proposal in detail. Yesterday it was she smiled when she heard it. Must have made a phone call to the land of sand and was told to say she would study it. While I admire what Suthep is doing and his success in stopping the PTP red shirts attempts at ignoring the corruption and intimidating the opposition with threats of civil war. I do believe he will have to be a bit more accepting of other peoples ideas. They are after the same thing but his refusal to bend is now working against him. He has stood tall long enough that the PTP red shirts can no longer ignore the issue weather he is on the scene or not. He has become a hero for the grass roots people who have had no voice. While the PTP red shirts seek to condemn him for his actions in attempting to bring some justice to the people. People don't realize it but if the red shirt movement had poured all their money spent on defending Thaksin into helping the poor the poor would be much better off. They are stealing from them selves and lack the education to see it. This is an education that all governments have denied them of. The current administration buys and supplies useless tablets to the privileged while in the mean time deny 2,000 schools of electricity. The red shirts think this is a good thing. When was the last time you heard the red shirts demanding a decent education. with the PTP they get a minister of education who says the whole system needs rebuilding and they change ministers. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

drand11 Posted April 26, 2014 Share Posted April 26, 2014 Suthep is Comical. He says the "People" are who he listens to....since he is his own voice when working through the people. He tells them what he wants, they idiots say "YES YES"... So basically, He can say whatever he wants and he will get enough "Hurrah's" to justify himself. No rational discussions allowed. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
