Leading up to and after former Prime Minister Yingluck Shinawatra’s impeachment, signs of fractures were becoming very obvious. To the trained eye, Thaksin Shinawatra either can not or will not keep his supporters on the same page and singing the same song. If the fractures are this obvious to the media, what is really going on behind close doors must be Thai drama at it’s finest. Continue reading Post ID 15309

Thaksin’s cronies bruised egos on display
Seeing the more or less official launch of an Anti Thai Junta organization by Thaksin cronies, it leaves you wondering as to why this may happen seeing the present behavior of the Thai people is supportive of the Junta. The Thai people are clearly happier now after the Coup because of ending the ongoing damage being caused by the freshly ousted Pro-Thaksin Government.

Thailand greatly improved with Junta rule
The title of this entry can be a bit deceiving and easily seen as being pro-Junta. However the fact of the matter is the Government the Junta unseated was doing such a bad job, that most anyone who has a good level of competence and basic common sense could have done better than the pro-Thaksin Government they unseated.

Majority of Thais disapprove of Thaksin
After watching the behavior of the pro-Thaksin Pheu Thai Party (PTP) since they were elected into power, it has become increasingly obvious that serving Thaksin means dis-serving the Thai people. Although no specific pole was conducted addressing this question, other polls are collectively implying that Thaksin’s self serving behavior has cut too deep into the lives of the people of Thailand.

Thailand’s vote buying neutralizer
A vote buying neutralizer certainly sounds fantastic and a bit hard to believe, particularly so for a country that suffers from it. However Thailand now has the opportunity to actually install just such a neutralizer as a direct result of the opportunities political reform offers.

Thai Junta doing Government’s neglected duties
Thailand’s ousted Pro-Thaksin Government grossly neglected it’s duties to the country by putting Thaksin first.

Thaksin still has not learned the word ‘NO’
Despite Thaksin’s influence being removed twice with two separate Coups in Thailand, Thaksin still has not grasped the concept of the word ‘NO’, we won’t let you be a dictator. So with word of Thaksin looking to set up a Government in exile getting ready to give it yet another try, it is clear beyond any level of common sense that only a psychopath would not have learned to give up this quest.

Thailand’s Caretaker Government appears subservient to Thaksin
In what seems to be apparent disrespect to the Military’s authority during martial law, the Pheu Thai Party (PTP) is downplaying the importance of military ordered meetings to find and end to Thailand’s political crisis. The only reason for this is Thaksin is not interested in any type of compromise. In fact according to news reports, despite the huge fallout to blanket amnesty that 90% of Thailand rejected, Thaksin still wants it and is instructing the PTP to push for it.
