Thai Election Date : 24 March, page-34

Dmitri, increasingly looking like much of the same politically post the King's sister disqualified from running in the election.....a complete basket case and no real prospect of reaching a rational settlement until forced to do so under international arbitration.  No jurisdiction issues under TAFTA and no basis for a complete cessation of Chatree operations.  Not going to be easy for you and Paolo to weasel them out of this one ?

"The saga has played into the hands of the military junta government, the National Council for Peace and Order (NCPO), who are seeking to maintain their power through the newly-formed pro-military party, Palang Pracharath. NCPO leader Prayut Chan-Ocha is running as their candidate for prime minister.

In a move possibly emboldened by the turmoil and uncertainty enveloping pro-Thaksin parties, the junta also announced a 15 day suspension of Voice TV, one of the more progressive Thai TV stations which is owned by Thaksin’s children and often gives a platform to those critical of the military.

The move has been seen as an attempt by the junta to closely control all public discourse in the build up to the election. They have already enforced draconian rules around campaigning on social media."
