Popular Post snoop1130 Posted February 25, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted February 25, 2020 University students gather in opposition to Future Forward Party dissolution By The Nation University students will hold political protests nationwide, after rallies were held at some universities yesterday evening (February 24) in opposition to the dissolution of Future Forward Party, seen by many as unjust and a setback to the progress of democracy. The movement started when students of Chulalongkorn University took the lead in taking a political stance via social media platform, followed by students from other education institutions who then created 28 hashtags on Twitter, including Silapakorn University, Kasetsart University and Thammasat University. They called for a show of unity through gatherings at university premises, aimed at sending a message to the government that they support democracy and not dictatorship. Ramkhamhaeng University which has the highest number of registered students will hold a rally tomorrow ( February 26). Former students of Ramkhamhaeng University said they supported the new generation of students at the university, which reminded them of the fallen students in two tragic political events: the 1973 Thai popular uprising and Black May in 1992. They also requested a rewriting of Constitution BE 2560 for the Constitution Drafting Assembly of Thailand to be formed based on majority vote of the public and for the right of Thai citizens to cast votes in a referendum on the writing of a new constitution before it is finalised.

yellowboat Posted February 26, 2020 Share Posted February 26, 2020 cha cha's blundering will probably change Thailand for the better. His lack of charisma, intelligence and military strongman antics are pretty off putting. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grumpy John Posted February 26, 2020 Share Posted February 26, 2020 I've had a feeling for a while that Thailand may revisit past events. It cannot be more apparent, to even a kindergarten age child, there is a huge number of people unhappy with the status quo. Around here no-one hids the fact they hate Prayut with a vengeance. And the same people would, with open arms, embrace the return of Thaksin in a heart beat! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For me, it begs the question, how much money does one really need at age 64? I would think personal and family dignity, pride and legacy would be more important. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fforest1 Posted February 27, 2020 Share Posted February 27, 2020 (edited) I think if the students keep protesting the Army will be teaching the kids about good old fashion Thai democracy with clubs and tear gas....
