webfact Posted May 20, 2014 Share Posted May 20, 2014 Pheu Thai mulls next moveThe NationBANGKOK: -- Pheu Thai Party MPs will meet to discuss the party's next move at an undisclosed place following the imposition of martial law, former Ubon Ratchathani Pheu Thai MP Somkid Chuakong said yesterday.He said the declaration of martial law was nothing short of seizing state control. He said the party would like the Army chief to push for an election as a solution and implement reform later.The party is totally against the proposal to nominate a PM, under Article 7. He urged the military not to abuse its power and violate human rights. The red-shirt protesters near Aksa Road would not move away, he said.Chalerm Yoobamrung, former director of the now-defunct Centre for the Administration of Peace and Order (CAPO), will stay at home as the anti-riot police providing him security have left.Only five police officers and a defence volunteer are now stationed at the entrance to his residence.-- The Nation 2014-05-21 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post binjalin Posted May 20, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted May 20, 2014 Just push for elections without creating too much "noise" and for equal treatment of the yellow ammart supporters - pointing out, carefully and sensibly, if their are any differences they can't be crushed and any future HAS to include them and if they are smart and not provocative they will win any future election when it comes 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There he is. I was wondering if he already left the country. So he lost about 95 cops to protect him and is left with five. Then why stay home? Did he quit his job at CAPO? I don't think The Gazette published CAPO and his job were deleted. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris Lawrence Posted May 21, 2014 Share Posted May 21, 2014 The bat and ball have been taken as the others are not good enough to play with. Stuff the majority as the ones in charge have always been in charge. I would just be careful now as some political people may be getting new shoes soon; one size fits all and the colour will be cement grey. Or they will go for a ride and may never be seen again. Yellow looks good for the moment? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post millwall_fan Posted May 21, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted May 21, 2014 At the moment the PTP have been completely out manoeuvred by the Ammart or Ruling Elite. All they can do is appeal to world opinion, which is generally supportive. The Ruling Elite have power - they always have had and they intend to ensure they never lose it again. A sad situation for Thailand. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post winstonc Posted May 21, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted May 21, 2014 elections then reform....fool..i think the reason thais are saying reform first..is because they dont believe any party will do it after the election..do it now..it really isnt hard and wont take that long...if theres a will theres a way surely.. 14 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post virtualtraveller Posted May 21, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted May 21, 2014 Puea Thai's next move should be to ditch Thaksin and become a proper political party before any further elections are contested. Any suggestion going forward that does not include some immediate commitment to reform is simply their way of saying 'we've got a super unfair advantage at the polls and we have no intention of rectifying it'. The more they chant 'election is the solution' the more devious they look. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trainman34014 Posted May 21, 2014 Share Posted May 21, 2014 Chalerm sitting at home with a never ending supply of ear medicine would have been the best solution right from the start. Must be wonderful to be in his position sitting there thinking about what a huge success he has been in his job's working for the Dubai paymaster. His family must be incredibly proud of his achievements. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

love1012 Posted May 21, 2014 Share Posted May 21, 2014 A corrupt Government has had to be removed and the Army has had to step in and take over its reponsibilities while new arrangements are made. Just think how good would it be if the rice farmers got paid while the martial law was in operation... Pheu Thai have let down the country with their arrogant corrupt incompetence. Shame on August 3rd voters cant have a FAIR election to get rid of them once and for all and their paymaster but we all know the bribes and the threats will flow in the North and North East Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A sad situation for Thailand. Blah blah elite. Blah blah ammart blah.

smedly Posted May 21, 2014 Share Posted May 21, 2014 PTP making demands as usual - they really do have a general difficulty understanding what is going around them at any given time - we have the "supposed" government of Thailand holding a meeting in a hotel room - right ? anybody else see something wrong with this ?

This is the crazy part. The reds are UDD and pro government supporters. Yet government official makes a claim as if reds are under their control, which they clearly are. Which does mean all the attacks on anti- government protesters were sponsored and ordered by current government Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Civil War Posted May 21, 2014 Share Posted May 21, 2014 Hmmmmm...... The PTP's next move eh? Sit there, shut up and wait for your replacements. If the red camp consider it a coup, then sit there, shut up and accept it, because the only way forward is to remove the thorn from the foot. Electoral reforms and election.... no other way.
