Popular Post inbangkok Posted October 19, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted October 19, 2014 (edited) Bahahahahaha....... Maybe if he plays his cards right, he can get to 99.99% just like Kim Jung Un. Wait until martial law is lifted and people are no longer afraid to read 1984, eat a sandwich in public, or flash the Hunger Games salute......the we will discover his true approval ratings.

Of course this could mean that the approval rating for the government soared when O'cha left the country.......................... 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post djjamie Posted October 19, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted October 19, 2014 Seems about right. That would fall in line with the figures that show a 7% fanatical group that embrace terrorism. Good to see that 93% of the population are looking at a brighter, peaceful future where their voices will be heard post ballot box. Unless of course we will be referring to an election over 3 years ago to discredit this poll conducted 24 hours ago. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who knows about 2016? That will depend on whether the Junta has eliminated all potential domestic and foreign (thai) critics. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't help but think that the bozos who fabricate such figures are self deluded enough to believe "if we say Prayuths approval is 100% no one will believe us, 93.3% on the other hand... In 2005, with the economy booming and Thaksin at the peak of his powers and popularity, he only managed 60% approval. Even at the best of times, this is a divided land.

JOC Posted October 19, 2014 Share Posted October 19, 2014 More of the same nonsense: According to BP-online: "PM Prayuths role in the 10th ASEM in Italy has helped improve Thailands image in the eyes of the world community" according to Master Poll (?)

Popular Post brucec64 Posted October 19, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted October 19, 2014 i would like to know the name of the president of the poll company His name is Mr. Noppadon Kannika. According to his bio, he is Research Advisor to the Commander in Chief, the Royal Thai Army. So, no bias there! http://library.au.edu/hall-of-fame/st-thomas2009-3.html The masterpoll.net domain was registered on May 15, 2014 – one week before the military coup. Another interesting fact, since the official version is that the coup was not planned... http://asiancorrespondent.com/126917/why-are-some-opinion-poll-results-so-positive-of-the-thai-junta/ 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post tbthailand Posted October 19, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted October 19, 2014 Thailand's "leaders" have a long tradition of creating their own propaganda. Their reports from Milan will all be fawning over how the 'PM' is (1) accepted, and (2) improving Thailand's image on the world stage. And polls like this will continue - there is no end in sight. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
