What Pita stated on the 06 June:

 

“On March 16, 2007, the court assigned me the administrator of my father’s estate, with the ITV shares no longer having any economic value. In 2014, the ITV shares were delisted from the Stock Exchange of Thailand, so they can no longer be traded on the stock exchange. Since becoming a Member of Parliament, I have disclosed my assets and liabilities to the National Anti-Corruption Commission and have been extremely transparent in this matter.

Thanks for sharing this. It is clear that he does not own shares in an operating media business. But when will truth and facts deter the military and elite from destroying the competition?

[Move Forward: Polling Agency Asking About About Hammer And Sickle Symbol In Cartoon Image]

What a waste of time and money. Why don't the EC just ban the party, ban Pita from politics for the rest of his life because "we want to and that is what our bosses told us to do so we can keep our lovely military dictatorship for ever".

[Pita shares cast a pall over historic May 14th Election, fears that the results may be nullified by a court]

Surely Pita must have known the army would try every trick in the book to disallow the election if he came out ahead. The "media shares" accusation is an old one. Surely he is not so dumb as to have left that vulnerability open. But I am sure the "vested interests" and generals will keep going until they void the election and stay in power. (but wait, they already have the majority enshrined in their cooked up constitution). Stand by for ............ business as usual
