louse1953 Posted May 23, 2014 Share Posted May 23, 2014 You all make me laugh condoning this military intervention. Red shirt, yellow shirt, pink shirt with polka dots, who cares, it is a coup d'état !!!! It is clear evidence the country is not a democracy but a dictatorship, SIMPLE! The people have a right to protest within the law. Trouble causers should be arrested by the police. The police should have overall control of the civilian population via orders given by the elected government. SIMPLE! NO not here folks the police are governed by the military, the military choose who and how to govern the country. The place is and always has been a military dictatorship. And although neutral towards any particular party i can only comment on hard facts and "like it or not" when Thaksin was ousted no can can argue the country was not, at the time on an upward spiral economically. An elected government not partial to dictatorship is not allowed to succeed here folks. SIMPLE! It was on an upward spiral,same as a ponzi scheme.It was always going to collapse.Did you notice,the closer it got to the end the more the govt.tried to borrow to cover their arse,ie rice scam money missing.The Senate caught them out and that,plus the desperation of the amnesty bill was the beginning of the end.Personly i hope tne Army stay around for 5 years.At least those Skype broadcasts from Dubai will stop.A sad man will be wither away with no access to the media.I hope those huge billboards with the smiling felon with his arm around some sycophant come down,been making me ill for years. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
captspectre Posted May 23, 2014 Share Posted May 23, 2014 Why bother to cross the border??? In the hot season there are places in the Mekhong river were you can nearly walk from Thailand into Vientianne without getting your feet wet or being spot by any control SO! it is finally confirmed that the thai army was in the hip pocket of the yellow shirts! remember months ago some thai newspaper said this and was dam near run out of business as publishing "false" statements! obama is alive and well in bangkok!

rubl Posted May 23, 2014 Share Posted May 23, 2014 (edited) I take it that ALL the PDRC Leaders are being similarly blockaded from leaving the country and taken to army barracks - all in the interests of fairness that I keep on reading about here............... It would seem that PDRC leaders not only are in the habit of fleeing the country, but even return from planned brief visits abroad like the chap arrested two days ago arriving at swampy. On the other hand UDD and other red shirt leaders have earned a reputation of dodging. BTW there was nothing in the topic about wanting to take all UDD and red-shirt leaders to the army barracks, just the mention to prevent them from leaving the country. I may have missed a few news items though, too busy at work to keep up with you lot. ADD: are red-shirt activists == UDD leaders ?

It's the yellows who start this whole mess. Yingluck was the duly appointed democratically elected PM and did as much was humanly possible for the people of Thailand. Yellow shirts wanted an unelected people's council?? How anyone could support such foolishness is beyond me. At a guess i would say most of us come from a democratic country,warts and all.I would also hazard a guess,that the same people are welcoming of the Army taking over,something we would never accept in our home country.Why would that be,i wonder.I rekon we recognise the total corruption of the previous regime and the ineptness and corruption of YT.Just because a govt has a majority,it doesn't mean it can run roughshod over people and rob them blind.Both sides were given a good run to sort it out,but to no avail.The next step was major bloodshed,threatened by the Reds.It was all the excuse the Army needed to thankfully step in.They werent getting caught with their pants down this time.If i am a fool for not wanting total anarchy,like last time,well so be it.Forget about democracy,it aint working here. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you soft in the head we get the information from the same source as you here on T V. Your conspiracy theorist buddies are leading you down the wrong path. Don't they have their own forum to exchange their ideas on. Why would a PDRC leader want to leave the country. Some of them have all ready been charged and are staying. Suthep even marched in to report. They are not guilty of trying to cause cessation from the nation or trying to raise a private army and arm it with weapons. Best you find a fox hole and hide in it. You are becoming nothing but a joke standing out in public spouting nonsense. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is the biggest joke I have ever heard ! So you need to learn more about Thailand. They are the true guardians of this country. They are not doing it for self interest but for the nation as a whole. Some of you guys are so negative about Thailand, why are you still here? Wrong answer, get involved with stuff and you "might" learn something. And you don't need to try and cover your back here.......... Are you suggesting get involved with the conspiracy theorists group. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elzach Posted May 23, 2014 Share Posted May 23, 2014 What is the logic of not allowing foreigners to enter? Is this an opportunity to make life difficult for foreigners staying in Thailand? They should be careful what they wish for...again. That phrase is constantly coming back to bite Thailand in its a.s. Anyone care to calculate how many billions of $ foreigners (not tourists) contribute here? 6-7% to Thailand's GDP Thank you. By my rough calculations 5%, or about a cool 17 billion USD. .

I hope he is not shitting himself now as he has shown to be a very courageous speaker. Thai army has honour and cannot be bought with money. Not a good advert for someone that runs a language school! I fail to see the connection. You mean my grammar is wrong again? It is not an advert for learning Thai of getting an ED visa with Walen School. Just my personal observation as I have also been fed up with months of protests and troublemakers wanting to make war. I like it nice and quiet as it used to be. Money politics have done a lot of damage to this country and I am happy that there is somebody bringing back peace and order.

Seems like you did not notice the police were deficient in their duties by not arresting anyone who has killed children & other innocent bystanders. Same as they were deficient in 2010 by allowing protesters with all sorts of weapons & petrol used to create mayhem. Yes i did notice and this is exactly my point. Now ask yourself WHY they where deficient in their duties and you will eventually realize where my statements are aimed. The police are not immune to realizing where the bread is ultimately buttered.

sawadee1947 Posted May 23, 2014 Share Posted May 23, 2014 The UDD has a lot of questions to answer. The calls for secession at the UDD rally on February 23 and the call for arms - all these things they will need to address in courts of law. Chalerm and Pheu Thai gave them a free pass, but that climate clearly has changed. Prayuth is serious in that he wants the violence out. The police were either unable - or unwilling - to do so. The army is serious about the preservation of the law, and that is a refreshing change. The courts, independent agencies, and the Senate are fully functioning. The judicial system is intact, and a future of stability will become more of a reality if the judicial process proceeds as it should. I would agree with you if it will happen to the "yellows" as well...! will it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
