MPs fail Clean Air Bill
🤦‍♂️"failure to maintain a quorum during #debate on #CleanAir #Bill highlights a fundamental lapse in primary duty of MPs. The long-awaited #legislation, initiated by #citizen groups demand'g action against worsening #PM25 #pollution back in 2022, was stalled yet again.. #PheuThai party's #ChiangMai MP Jakraphol T chairs Bill's drafting committee.. only 27% of Pheu Thai's 140 MPs attended.. stark contrast to 90% fr People's Party & 80% fr Bhumjaithai"

Thailand's most powerful politician, Thaksin Shinawatra, has jetted off to Dubai — ostensibly for a medical checkup — ahead of the Thai parliament's vote for a new prime minister after his daughter lost the job. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/news/2025/09/05/asia-pacific/politics/thailand-new-prime-minister/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #asiapacific #politics #thailand #thaksinshinawatra #paetongtarnshinawatra #anutincharnvirakul #pheuthai #bhumjaithai

"At a time when #Thailand needs a strong, competent #government to handle numerous #challenges, the new #cabinet is just the opposite.. In short, it is not up to expectations, by any standards.. Evidently, the new cabinet is not based on meritocracy.. Some appointments are #astounding.. These cabinet appointments show #PheuThai is focused on its #owninterests instead of thinking abt how to move the #country forward. Tis cabinet cannot win #public #confidence, nor #trust"🤦‍♂️

🤔It's already a gross #waste of #taxpayers money to study such a ridiculous relocation!

#Seabarrier 'better' than #relocation
"House study disagrees with proposal by a #PheuThai Party lawmaker to move the #capital to #NakhonRatchasima province, saying moving wld be #budget intensive & require a #referendum to decide.. it wld make more sense to build a strong system around #Bangkok, which is thought to be sinking, & surrounding provinces, to protect them"

Córka Thaksina premierem

Jej rządy w podzielonej Tajlandii nie będą łatwe. Ojciec i ciotka byli obalenie przez wojskowe zamachy stanu. Sam Thaksin powrócił do Tajlandii w sierpniu ubiegłego roku po 15 latach spędzonych na wygnaniu, kiedy zawarł sojusz z partiami wspieranymi przez wojsko w celu utworzenia rządu.

#AmnestyInternational in a statement called the ruling an "untenable decision" & said authorities were relentlessly harassing the political #opposition.

#MoveForward's disbandment comes at critical juncture in #Thai #politics, w/cracks appearing also in an uneasy truce between the #military-backed establishment & another longtime rival, the #populist ruling party, #PheuThai.

Pheu Thai loses its mojo
"the heart of the matter is that #PheuThai has never recovered .. The #justice ministry's treatment of Thaksin by letting him serve #jail time on the 14th floor of the Police General #Hospital is simply #disgraceful .. His trips to the provinces only attracted the same #elderly supporters. Thaksin is becoming #irrelevant .. #Politicians, regardless of political affiliation, should serve the people and make #Thailand a country of hope"

20 years later, time for justice for #TakBai
"7 deaths at the site & 78 more during the transport of 1,370 #protesters .. each lorry had to take almost 50 protesters for 5 hours fr the protest site to #Pattani camp.. The demonstrators were ordered to lie w their heads down & were packed in 3 or 4 piles deep.. The case will be a test for #justice for #PheuThai .. The #massacre took place when Thaksin Shinawatra was PM as his govt #failed to restore peace in the far South."

The only thing which can avoid this banana-republic become a real dictatorship, although already corrupt to the core, are the brave students and their leaders.

"Thaksin #Shinawatra wants his planned return to #Thailand to be seen as a family affair. But few are fooled by his latest political act .. it seems that whatever the consequence #PheuThai will face is secondary to Thaksin’s desire to come home. “The need of the real owner of the party has to come first. One who foots the bill often has the final say”"
