jesimps Posted February 28, 2020 Share Posted February 28, 2020 "He said that several core leaders of rival political groups, whatever their political colours, are now serving terms in jail or are facing trial." Strange that none of his own political group seem to be serving jail time. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sahibji Posted February 28, 2020 Share Posted February 28, 2020 sure it is an expression of dissatisfaction caused by the dissolution of the opposition party. this is a critical point at which to let the people know both sides of the story so that they can make up their own mind. the problem will be more severe if there is an "outsider' hand in these protests.

unamazedloso Posted February 28, 2020 Share Posted February 28, 2020 Comon people he is genuinely worried that hes going to have to sweep something else HUGE under the carpets if these protests continue and the army has to intervene for re-education whilst looking down the barrel of a gun perhaps, but these pesky public and reporters just dont understand! Lets hope this pm sees hes the problem with thailand and moves on. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some "civilians" would "take it upon themselves" to fight the good cause on their behalf out of the "goodness of their hearts". On the official side, uncle crooner will appeal to the oldies to guilt trip their grandchildren into backing down, which unfortunately given the engrained deference to their elders, plenty of them will fall for. That doesn't work, there's a trump card that gets rolled out, also with the intention of leveraging those deeply held traditions that get forced into people from about four years old. Though only time will tell if it has the same effect as it has in the past. it will take more than FFP and the kids to change this government as long as they have the backing of the Religious leaders. i also suspect Facebook's day's in Thailand are numbered as well as all other social media.

manhood Posted February 28, 2020 Share Posted February 28, 2020 Yes, Prayut is concerned about the mob?!?! As he never opened the country to go into a democracy, the result must be the protest of the people and it's not a mob! The mob is the government! Still ruling the country like a junta. Nothing has changed. Step all back!!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He can deal with political opponents, deal with opposition parties, threaten and cajole other members.. but he doesn't know how to deal with thousands of students who have just had their voice taken away.. He can't jail them, send them to court for spreading fake news, take on one he will have thousands follow. He can only spout veiled threats. I hope the FFP let the students know they have a voice and it should be heard loud & clear all around the country. Time for a student up-rising!

anfh Posted February 28, 2020 Share Posted February 28, 2020 The obvious reult of banning the only party that really opposes his military government. You cant mereley ban opposition. These students are the future, they were never allowed to vote before, the older generation have come to accept the military rule, but, as with every other country, the future government are the student youth. They wont accept this. he needs to look at Hong Kong, same thing there. He might stay in power for this term, but if he allows another election in five or six years, the opposition party, 2hoever thay may be, will win far more votes as there will be far more young people willing to stand up. Its inevitable. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

animatic Posted February 28, 2020 Share Posted February 28, 2020 In general the fall of a government is presaged by thai university and HS students coming out in the streets en-masse regularly, and with a consistent message. It rarely, if ever, is a controllable happening for the powers that be. And most often those attempts to control it, make it worse. The PM doesn’t seem to be a student of history, because other wise he might recognise the symptoms of his time in control ticking down. Dissolving FF was one of those bell-weather foolish moments of hubris than is typical of ‘dictators in mufti’ grasping at maintaining control when the people are indicating they are fed-up. So few ‘leaders’ recognise themselves as victims of the old adage “Absolute power corrupts absolutely.” What is it in the national psyche that has caused so many coups and failed governments both democratic and dictatorial? Yes a very young country, but there are other young countries with much more stable records of governance. It is baffling. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post spidermike007 Posted February 28, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted February 28, 2020 He should be concerned. The youth is going to take him and his unless, toxic army down one day. They are the only hope this nation has, to move forward. After forcing the dissolution of the FFP, he showed how utterly desperate and incredibly afraid he is, and the youth took note of that. It was a heinous move, and one that reeked of small mindedness and as astounding lack of reason and vision. These are not mobs, you utter goon. These are democratically formed protests. I get that you cannot see the difference. You demand utter fealty. Not gonna happen. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
