webfact Posted September 7, 2016 Share Posted September 7, 2016 Jatuporn unfazed with bail withdrawal prospect BANGKOK: -- United Front for Democracy Against Dictatorship (UDD) chairman Jatuporn Promphan said on Wednesday that he was unfazed with the prospect that he may return to the detention cell if his bail is withdrawn by the Office of the Attorney-General. Also, the OAG has asked the court to withdraw the bails granted to other UDD leaders who include Natthawut Saikua, Weng Tochirakarn, Veerakarn Musikapong and Nisit Sindhuprai accusing them of breaking the terms of the bail. Jatuporn said that the political groups, UDD, the People’s Alliance for Democracy and the People’s Democratic Reform Committee share different ideologies and have different origins.

The stuttering parrot Posted September 7, 2016 Share Posted September 7, 2016 Why wouldn't he be unfazed he speaks the truth about the yellows trying to seize power unlawfully opening up the opportunity for a military coup. Unfortunatley Sutep and his cronies are unfazed to and hid away in a temple until it was deemed safe that enough time had passed. Some monks and pollies are Teflon coated and get a free pass to bring down a democratically elected government. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now the yellows did it (and would never have happened if Thaksin did not have himself included in the amnesty and the reds had not bombed and shot the yellows). So who is to blame.. When the reds burn BKK (violent protests unlike the yellows) its ok but not when yellows peacefully try to bring down a corrupt lying government. 2 mistakes of the red led to this.. 1 Thaksin his amnesty when the people stood up against it, 2 the bombing and shooting of yellows gave the army good reason to step in. Its all on their own heads. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Putin would be proud of the current government here. Maybe thats what the Thai people want, I don't know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he broke his bail conditions, set by a court, then he should have his bail revoked. He isn't above the law and nor should he be. Maybe he thinks he's going to get a nice 5 star cell and VIP treatment. Ssshhh - don't mention "democratically elected" - UDD leaders weren't.

They linked the reds to it.. just look at the Trad massacre where they threw handgrenades in the crowd and shot with machine guns into a crowd. This was told live on stage of a red shirt meeting saying our brothers did a successful attack and then they all cheered... only later someone made them stop because that person realized how bad the PR would be. But many cheered (ok they did not know two kids were among the dead) but they cheered for the attack. Also the Rambo from Isarn did the attacks around Chang wattana also public knowledge and in response the popcorn man and the red got into a fire fight. So yes.. its sure the reds were the ones doing this. Violent terrorists. The reds are the armed hand of the previous goverment kinda like the IRA was the armed hand for Sinn Fein.

Abisith formed an other coalition with the parties that left the PTP coalition. Are you American ? Dont you know the concept of a coalition. They can change even through a government period then a government falls legally and a new one can be formed by negotiating. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like Erdogan, Putin and more of those. The reds have a long history of violence, threatening to form an army to fight the country, dividing the country and threatening political opponents. Please inform me what acts of violence can be blamed on the yellow shirts. It is really up to the Thai people what they want, you sound as if you don't like that.

debate101 Posted September 8, 2016 Share Posted September 8, 2016 The problem with politics is that opinionated demagogues can be exactly right in their criticism of others and yet be terrible, unconscionable people themselves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xineohp Posted September 8, 2016 Share Posted September 8, 2016 One thing is certain, with the return to democracy Jatuporn will have accumulated a whole lot of material and evidence to give him a very strong case for wrongful arrest and detention etc. Given that a new democratic government will replace the current political/military judiciary with fresh faces, Jatuporn has plenty to look forward to.

" They formed a government with a coalition of parties, yes, and the coalition was broken by pressure from the military. They subsequently won again, in 2010, by a bigger margin, and subsequently formed a government. On neither occasion did they grab power as you so melodramaticaly suggest. Grabbing power is rather the speciality of the other side - three times in eight years is it? 2). No, I am not an American, I am an Englishman.I am not quite sure why my nationality, or perhaps more pertinently the suspicion on your part that I may be an American has to do with the matter. 3). Yes, I fully understand the concept of coalition government, and see no reason to bow to your presumed expertise on the subject. I also understand the concept of democratic government, as the result of elections. A concept which rather seems to have eluded you.

Your nationality was only asked because in the US they only have 2 parties, no coalitions are formed there. So I thought maybe you did not understand the concept. The Abisith government was in power after it had formed a coalition with forrmer allies of the PTP and as a result there were street protests that resulted in the burning of BKK and stepping down of the government. Sounds like a powergrab to me. The same happened with the yellow street protests (just a lot less violent than the red protests). They forced a government to step down too.

Perhaps he's unfazed because he loves being the hero martyr. But is there a more ignorant nasty fellow in Thai politics? Probably, but he's certainly in the top ten.

Have you ever considered that the 2010 chaos was the unfortunate but inevitable backlash against the military's 2006 "bloodless" coup?

I do not condone what the Reds did in Bangkok but it is rather different, they were calling for an election after an unelected party were put into power by the military, they were fighting for democracy not against it like the other side.
