rooster59 Posted November 16, 2019 Share Posted November 16, 2019 Prayut wins vote of confidence from majority of Thais: Super Poll By THE NATION The majority of Thai people have expressed confidence in the government of Prime Minister General Prayut Chan-o-cha, according to a survey by Super Poll Research Centre. Only 7.3 per cent said they were not happy with the country’s current situation, said Asst Prof Noppadon Kannika, director of the centre. Noppadon said the poll on the Thai confidence index used quantitative and qualitative research techniques after surveying 1,197 Thais from all regions and a range of professions. The data was collected from November 10-15 and has been analysed to create the confidence index in which a number above 100 reflects positive confidence while a number below 100 represents lack of confidence. The three works for which the Prayut government received the highest confidence scores were national security and peacekeeping (175.47), currency strength (160.95) and public banks’ services (154.84), followed by public health (150.92), education (145.18), energy (141.40), employment rate (114.50) and economic stimulation (103.96). However, the aspect that chalked up a negative confidence score of 95.81 was personal finance, regarding how well the government can increase money in people’s pockets. One of the interesting topics explored by the survey was “happiness level”. Some 66.6 per cent of respondents said they were happy with the country’s current situation, 26.1 per cent said that their happiness level was neutral, and 7.3 per cent said they were not happy. The factors affecting the “unhappy group” included health issues, personal finance problems, unemployment and economic recession.

steven100 Posted November 16, 2019 Share Posted November 16, 2019 Well done Khun Prayut Chan O Cha. Thailand continues to move forward with infrastructure and many other projects ongoing.

leeneeds Posted November 16, 2019 Share Posted November 16, 2019 A different Poll= Sunday, November 10, 2019: A NIDA poll has shown that a clear majority of respondents want the Prayut Cabinet to be collectively grilled in this parliamentary term, albeit before the year’s end. The same poll, questioning 1,271 Thais last week, also shows that the public wouldn’t mind ministers being censured individually. Asked if they would like the entire Cabinet to be censured, 51.6% said they agree, while 20.2% said they “rather agree.” What about ministers being grilled separately then? Again, 49.4% said they agree, while 25.2% said they “rather agree.” While it’s debatable whether the public want the opposition to censure the entire Cabinet or selected ministers, it seems to be beyond any doubt that the people want a no-confidence debate within this year.

TooBigToFit Posted November 17, 2019 Share Posted November 17, 2019 This is a Thai "Poll" company. Take a look at the website: https://www.superpollthailand.net/ Look at the owner's claims about himself. He literally claims to have a masters from University of Michigan, Georgetown, and studied at Thammasat and Chula on different sites. It just looks wacky and unbelievable. https://psm.isr.umich.edu/kannika https://th.linkedin.com/in/noppadon-kannika-8312908a Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BobBKK Posted November 17, 2019 Share Posted November 17, 2019 What a joke. I can honestly say I know of NO Thai who supports him.

cmsally Posted November 17, 2019 Share Posted November 17, 2019 Quote 1,197 Thais from all regions and a range of professions. Totally misleading, nothing to do with the "majority of Thais". Journalist needs to go back to "basic journalism and facts course". Maybe try passing it this time around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TooBigToFit Posted November 17, 2019 Share Posted November 17, 2019 If you threaten, beat down, jail and kill off the opposition, you can get any poll you want. There are dead Thai citizens whose deaths Prayuth just brushed off. Prayuth still has to face justice. Anyone who sincerely gives him respect is sick in the head.

Thailand continues to move forward with infrastructure and many other projects ongoing. As I have said before, more have been done in the past 4 years than the previous 10yrs. "Thailand continues to move forward with infrastructure" Hmm, from 22 December 2017: "THE government has set a new target to call for construction bids for the Bt179-billion, 252-kilometre Bangkok-Nakhon Ratchasima high-speed railway by the end of next year, according to Transport Minister Arkhom Termpittay-apaisith. Arkhom said a total of 13 construction contracts for the Bangkok-Nakhon Ratchasima route would be open for bidding in 2018 so that construction could be completed and the system become operational in 2021." source: https://www.thaivisa.com/forum/topic/1016957-construction-bids-for-high-speed-train-project-in-coordination-with-china-to-be-completed-in-2018/ So that's only a year before the complete railway is up and running! How much track has been completed so far? I think it's less than 3km. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
