webfact Posted May 23, 2019 Share Posted May 23, 2019 Sudarat warns Democrat and Bhumjaithai parties not to betray people’s trust Pheu Thai party’s election strategy chief Sudarat Keyuraphan today warned the Democrat and Bhumjaithai parties not to betray the trust of the people who voted for their pro-democracy platform, saying the people still remember their promise. She said that the Pheu Thai party is still to see whether the two mid-sized parties will keep their promise to the people or “whether their promise was just rhetoric.” She insisted that the party does seek any cabinet portfolios, saying “that is why we have announced today that we will not accept any posts and are ready to support the people who share our ideology. Today, we agree to sacrifice and we are pleased to do so.” Full story: https://www.thaipbsworld.com/sudarat-warns-democrat-and-bhumjaithai-parties-not-to-betray-peoples-trust/ -- © Copyright Thai PBS 2019-05-24 Follow Thaivisa on LINE for breaking Thailand news and visa info Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thailand Posted May 23, 2019 Share Posted May 23, 2019 Convinced they will side with the junta, the easy way in, and probably already finalizing deals. Hope I am wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course they are going to side with the junta. There is no doubt about that. They are money lackeys - Establishment toadies; and when the top 'politician' controls - with oh-so-clean fingers - the nation's entire monetary funds and more, expressing 'gratitude' to those unprincipled supporters is as easy as kissing a frog (for some!).

bannork Posted May 23, 2019 Share Posted May 23, 2019 If The Democrats join the junta I hope they are decimated once again at the next election when their young voters switch to FF or its successor if it's dissolved. For Bhumjaithai there never was any hope. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

candide Posted May 24, 2019 Share Posted May 24, 2019 The deal is made. FF will be dissolved. They will let PT remain because they need a bogeyman. Mission accomplished! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am not sure that they will actually dissolve Future Forward - although they are unprincipled enough to do anything; I think more likely is that they will hamstring the party with so many obstacles, court cases and trumped-up charges that Future Forward will lose much of its power in 'parliament'. Certainly there is no way that they will EVER allow Thanathorn to become and remain P.M. He would be too good at the job (and by 'good', I really do mean - almost uniquely for a Thai politician - virtuous and honourable). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They must set an example that no one can threaten the army as he did, without being punished. Having said that, it's just a question of what the extent of punishment will be.

At least they never claimed otherwise, and have all been elected on this premises. You know mandate, and Thaksin's massive popularity, like it or not, something the rests can only dream of. The democrats gained votes on the promise they would never support Prayuth. And how could they ? Any democratic party cannot possibly support someone that abolished the constitution and told the Thai electorate to shove it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Election promises rarely hold up in the harsh light of pragmatism, whether it was "You will all be rich in 6 months" or "A tablet for every school child" or refusing to support a military lead government and being left off the gravy train.

Sent from my SM-A730F using Thailand Forum - Thaivisa mobile app Yes I am again the junta, never heard it was against the law to change your mind. I was pro coup and did not think it would last as long as it did given other coups. So you can call me a hypocrite even though my views have not changed much. I still dislike the Shins, just dislike the junta more now. I prefer future forward of all parties. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah you probably right. However, this is a pretty fundamental promise. I guess the dems have a desire to really become irrelevant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
