Coss Posted January 16 Report Share Posted January 16 The daughter of Thailand's self-exiled former leader Thaksin Shinawatra has declared her readiness to run for prime minister in an election this year, as the main opposition seeks to regain power after being ousted in a coup eight years ago. Paetongtarn Shinawatra, whose father Thaksin and aunt Yingluck Shinawatra both led governments toppled by the army, will run under the Pheu Thai Party, the latest incarnation of a populist movement founded by her billionaire family two decades ago...... Oh Joy... Paetongtarn Shinawatra, 36, the youngest daughter of billionaire former Prime Minister Thaksin Shinawatra, attends a Pheu Thai Party news conference in Bangkok, Thailand, December 6, 2022. https://www.reuters.com/world/asia-pacific/daughter-thailands-exiled-former-pm-thaksin-seek-premiership-2023-01-16/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My Penis is hungry Posted January 17 Report Share Posted January 17 That's the problem, an alternative would be good, but if there is none, frankly if you don't want Thaksin, then it's a vote for royalty or military Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mekong Posted January 17 Report Share Posted January 17 Or if there is an alternative such as Future Forward Party, the Military and the Royalists make things up to get them disbarred. One prominent case against the party, which the Constitutional Court accepted in July 2019, alleged that FFP sought to overthrow the monarchy. As evidence, the resemblance between the party's triangular symbol and that of the Illuminati was cited. I will let you judge if any way similar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
khunsanuk Posted January 17 Report Share Posted January 17 Hi, >Or if there is an alternative such as Future Forward Party, the Military and the Royalists make things up to get them disbarred. Exactly. Neither party will really allow anyone else to come into this. I like neither Prayuth or Thaksin, but unfortunately no alternative is available. FFP seemed decent, but of course too big of a threat, so they come up with some trumped up charges to get rid of them. Sanuk! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
