Thai coup leaders ban meetings of more than 5 people

BANGKOK, May 22, 2014 (AFP) - Thailand's new military leaders on Thursday prohibited gatherings of more than five people at a time for "political purposes", after they seized power in a coup following months of turmoil marked by political protests.

"Under articles 8 and 11 of martial law, the National Peace and Order Maintaining Council prohibits gatherings of more than five people for political purposes," said an announcement by the military on national television.

"Anyone who violates the ban will be subject to a one-year jail term, 10,000 baht fine, or both."

Joking right.

More than 500 people still at yellow protest site right now.

There is more to this than meets the eye. Prayuth wants talks for months all of a sudden he suspends talks when he is due to retire to have a BIGGER mess?

I smell something else bigger here

Thank goodness, no more groups of 6 playing golf in front of us!

Actually if using caddies maximum of 2 players plus 3 caddies, or 3 players and 2 caddies, excellent!

Joking right.

That's because Thai people have a thing for laws or rules - they don't like to follow them!

I asked some friends about the curfew - no idea - most told me when they saw uniforms on TV they switched off!

They communicate via social media And don't care what the army says!

S$#T I have more than 5 in my family and am breaking that rule already

One last heist?

When one of the 90'a coup maker generals died he left 4 billion behind it only came out because their was a family fight over the estate!

All saved up from his salary of course!

I didn't realise golf was a political practice. I thought it was just a sport.

Anything is to suit the amart..... Rothchild's and their ilk would be proud (if they haven't actually directed it!!!)

It will quiet down South Pattaya tonight !

Damn...I just had to send 4 bargirls home from my apartment...we were part way through a 5-some.....but after some work bench jostling it became "political" so we had to call it off.

.......one wanted to be the "top person"...while 2 others wanted to " just stay on the side and not interfere too much".........the 4th wanted to get "real dirty"....and the 5th...wanted to be the "whip"

Oh well another night perhaps........

well trueVision is shut down already, last TV network to shut down prolly cause the military didn't know about it until someone told them, so when will they shut down the Internet?

I don't think your family are meeting for political purposes.
