thesetat2013 Posted November 7, 2015 Share Posted November 7, 2015 We will know if they were serious when we read in the news about the influential mafia like people on kho tao being arrested. Until that happens then this story is propaganda only. What I can't understand is they are coordinating with the RTP? How can they go after themselves if they still have the power they abuse so well?

h90 Posted November 7, 2015 Share Posted November 7, 2015 Thailand. Look at yourself in the mirror. Accept yourself and learn to be comfortable in your own skin. No....Like if you look yourself in the mirror and you see a fat ugly guy, you should not get comfortable, you should man up, go on diet and exercise hard till you are fit. Thailand is decorating the mirrow with some flowers and get comfortable with the ugly image.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Misterwhisper Posted November 7, 2015 Share Posted November 7, 2015 The RTA and RTP cracking down on their own. That will be the day... I mean, everybody knows where many of these so-called influential individuals and groups hold very, very comfortable (read: almost untouchable) positions.

BlindMagician Posted November 7, 2015 Share Posted November 7, 2015 "Influential people"... What does that mean? Why are influential people bad? People could be a good influence, or a bad influence. Is it illegal to be influential? Is the term bring used by the big one to give carte Blanche to neutralize anyone he sees fit? Oi, you, you're influential...you're nicked! Why not drop the word "influential" and just say "people"... We announce today a crackdown on people. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chainarong Posted November 7, 2015 Share Posted November 7, 2015 Perhaps the Junta should stick to a time frame of sorting out the charter and getting the country back on track to elections, democratically or otherwise, the longer you stay there the more weirder you get , discontent is now ragging on social media and you are about to crackdown on influential people and remember what comes around goes around, there may well be a crack down on influential army commanders in the near future..........

The Deerhunter Posted November 7, 2015 Share Posted November 7, 2015 There must be a lot more to this story. The mention of confiscating firearms has got to be the hint. But not a well thought out name for the project. It all depends on what you regard as influence. But why announce it at all? In the words of the sports clothes maker................ "Just Do It!"

DennisF Posted November 7, 2015 Share Posted November 7, 2015 Another 'spectacular' announcement that means nothing. I feel so sad for the Thai populace. Beautiful country, beautiful people ( in the main). As a previous poster said, until the likes of the Koh Tao and Samui mafia are eliminated, along with their uncle protector it's business as usual. Smoke and mirrors. Propaganda. Empty rhetoric. In short: more boolsheet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lupatria Posted November 7, 2015 Share Posted November 7, 2015 6 months? I can imagine how long it takes to send thousand of E-Mails and making phone calls to all these "influential figures" to inform them a week in advance about the arrest warrants that may be issued.
