"The dismissal of irrelevant law act" isn't that the same as " The Coup Act".

Anyone know where I can get a copy of " The Thainess Act", " the Saving Face Act" , " The Speaking With Forked Tongue Act" or " The <deleted> Stupid Statement Will I Make Today Act".?

Just trying to understand current Thai politics.
