Lite Beer Posted May 2, 2014 Share Posted May 2, 2014 Buddha Issara discusses security plan with Army ahead of Yingluck court dateThe NationBANGKOK: -- Anti-government protesters camping at the Constitutional Court will not block the caretaker premier when she goes to the court next week to face trial for the illegal transfer of the chief of the National Security Council.However, they will stop any pro-government red shirts from entering the court because they could threaten judges or National Anti-Corruption Commission members.The message was conveyed by Phra Buddha Issara, a monk who supervises the rally in front of the court on Chaeng Wattana Road, to First Anti-aircraft Artillery Regiment general commander Worawut Wuttisiri yesterday.Prime Minister Yingluck Shinawatra is due to appear at the court by May 6, but it is yet to be confirmed if she will go herself or send representatives to testify on her behalf.Phra Buddha and six buses carrying protesters went to the Metropolitan Waterworks Authority and Ministry of Public Health yesterday to promote a May 16-18 rally that will call for power to be returned to His Majesty the King.Meanwhile, Maj-General Dr Rienthong Nanna, director of Mongkutwattana General Hospital, posted on his Facebook that a guard was in a serious condition at the hospital after an M-79 bomb attack.Separately, Royal Thai Army deputy spokesperson Col Sirichan Nga-Thong said Army chief General Prayuth Chan-ocha chaired a meeting of army units in which he said the military should work with all its ability to meet the public's expectations.Sirichan said the general told the gathering that the army should be the main organisation delivering stability to the country and taking care of the country, so it needed to be ready for every situation.The Army is still supporting the Centre for the Administration of Peace and Order. -- The Nation 2014-05-03 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post chooka Posted May 3, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted May 3, 2014 When was this idiot monk put in charge of security he has absolutely no power or authority to stop people entering a public building. Could you imagine Joe Citizen of any developed country appointing himself in charge of national or state security. He would have balls squeezed, arrested and he would be dragged off to the loony bin. What a moronic piece of garbage. 20 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NongKhaiKid Posted May 3, 2014 Share Posted May 3, 2014 Only a couple of weeks ago Gen. Prayuth said he was keeping the army out of politics yet hardly a day passes without someone from the army and other branches of the armed forces is sounding off about something to do with politics. Has martial law been declared ? if not why is the mad monk not discussing security with the police and i'm sure that will generate a lot of answers. To the best of my knowledge the military have no power of arrest, not that minor things like that matter here, so where do they get the power to prevent people entering a open hearing ? The reds don't need to intimidate the judges in court as their leaders, Chalerm etc. have been doing that for weeks, 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post BlueNoseCodger Posted May 3, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted May 3, 2014 (edited) Will the monk protect her or arrest her as she approach the court? Or indeed, shoot her and torture her, like Colonel, Witthawat Wattanakul, ah but she doesn't have an army id card, so perhaps they'll go the full hog, put a PDRC whistle around her neck, tie her up, and throw her in the river like the taxi driver to drown? Really if the army can't/won't protect its own soldiers, I don't see how Yingluk can attend a court hearing protected only by the soldiers, till the protestors are cleared by the army.

Issara is deeply involved with politics and leads a gang of thugs who will determine who can go into a Court and who cannot you could not make it up... a case of "the Monk, the Court and the Bizarre" 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeh, damn red shirts intimidating the Constitutional Court with their Threats to judges and their families is indeed contemptible, to which the red shirts admit to. BANGKOK, Sept 25 - Yossawaris Chuklom, also known as Jeng Dokjik, jailed Red Shirt activist and former comedian, confessed in Criminal Court today to having broken the law and promised to refrain from all political activity if he is released on bail. The court will decide Friday whether to grant him temporary freedom. His wife put up Bt600,000 in cash as bail bond. Mr Yossawaris was jailed last month when his bail was revoked for his alleged intimidation of members of the Constitution Court. http://www.thaivisa.com/forum/topic/586934-jeng-dokjik-confesses-anew;-court-will-decide-bail-bid-friday/ 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post rreddin Posted May 3, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted May 3, 2014 Good to see any group offering to protect the Constitution Court from repeated intimidations by the the red shirts. Clearly, the police certainly are not up to the task. Well gagrel, if you had read the OP, the monk is not protecting anyone. He is trying to get a free hand, backed by the army - or at least a group of anti-aircraft gunners, to intimmidate the Constitutional Court into delivering a judgement he approves of. The monk is interfering in the public's right to access to the courts to see that the judicial system performs its functions fairly and impartially. Hopefully, the army will see through his ruse. The Constitutional Court has to tread with care should the monk prevent Yingluk's supports from attending the hearing lest they be seen as a kangaroo court doing the monk's bidding. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So how exactly will Buddha Issara's mob in 2014 stop a Red Shirt from his angry tirade against the Constitutional judges back in 2012? Will Buddha pray and a time-wormhole will open throwing him back in time? [added] Look gangrel, yes I get it, you want to hypothesize reasons for Issara to be there. But really he's there to shut down the government, and part of the government being blocked is the courts, so he wants to selectively permit that for cases he wants to happen. But this is not law and order, this is a man with a mob trying to seize power. The army needs to clear this lot out. She cannot rely on an army that won't protect its own troops from this guard, but will protect the PDRC guard from its own troops!

Popular Post FangFerang Posted May 3, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted May 3, 2014 What I do not understand is the monk's statements. He is demanding that power be given back to the king while addressing the military. It was the military who took away the absolute monarchy before World War II in a bloodless coup. He is counting on Thais not knowing their own history, and once more the specter of ignorance from poor education rears its cold and shadowy head...and laughs. He knows the readers know nothing of their own history. What a monk-ey. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stop making stuff up!!! If you are going to post inflammatory things, at least tone down the make-believe. Yes, the Colonel did get shot in the foot, probably by PDRC guards. Nowhere was there any mention or accusation of torture until you came along. Yes there was a report that a red shirt guard was beaten and tossed in the river. I reserve judgement there because the police and CAPO haven't filed charges and I believe they certainly would have if there was any substance to the report. Violence by the protestors from either side should not be allowed or tolerated. I also don't see that Yingluck is in any danger. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frank James Posted May 3, 2014 Share Posted May 3, 2014 I can't understand why the monks union (?) allows this charlatan to call himself Buddha. In my reading of Buddhism, one can only be termed a Buddha, who has attained Enlightenment. Such a one would not be involved in worldly politics, much less insurrection. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post SamMunich Posted May 3, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted May 3, 2014 When will BlueNose et al start to understand, that Redshirts and PTP etc. only pretend they are all out for democracy? In fact their understanding of democracy is personal freedom to rob everybody else blind, with the support and cover of the people around them, who are stupid enough to adore these gansters. Where were Nuttawuth and Jatuporn 6, 7 years ago? Southerners without much money, while now they are drowning in money. Leading Redshirts is highly profitable,- as opposed to planting and pledging rice. Elections aren't the core value of democracy, they are like the packaging only necessary but not the content itself. Like... the elections are the bottle to transport the beer in, but the PTP and Redshirts tell you, the bottle is full of beer, while in fact it is empty. Time to wake up from the delusion and use your own brain instead of repeating what others tell you to say and think. And it's time for you to wake up for the sake of the future of this country! 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What a moronic piece of garbage. Not in the Ukraine he wouldn't. Or Egypt, Sudan, Somalia, Libya, and countless other countries that are in the process of struggling for the democratic evolution. If their on the winning side they become national heroes with comfortable jobs in government. Loose and they become war criminals. But, there always seem to be people, on all sides, willing to seize the moment. Thailand has yet to go through the struggles that will bring about the social, economic and political reforms it needs to progress in the modern world. Sadly, these changes are often accomplished through embracing violence. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
