Thai soldiers making politics harder

Source
The army took control of Thailand through a coup in 2014. At that time, the army's Prime Minister Prothom Chan-Ochcha said that the army will leave power with elections within one and a half years. The time of his tied up has already passed. Then the election date has changed four times. The latest election schedule is scheduled for next year.

However, many people think that the elections will be held at the scheduled time. Because the Janta Government has almost done all that is needed to win. The army has the authority to organize 'controlled elections'. It is being said that, in the process of 'restoring democracy,' the government is moving away from the head of the politicians who have been living with change in power. Although the leader of the junta says, 'I'm not a dirty cleaning machine'. Although he said this, he started touring different parts of the country. A large number of people were there in those places. But do not support any party in the elections and said that they will not fight.

But there are some discrepancies in his work with him. Because the constitution has been amended 13 months ago. And the power of political parties has been reduced in it. It is said that the way he is playing with political parties, chaos can also occur in the formation of coalition government in the elections. And you can take advantage of Pratha. Pretends to be surprised by the fact that he can go as prime minister

There have been several coup cases in Thailand. In 2014, the army chief was in the process of making a coup in Protha. Raja Bhumibol Aduladaz, the then king, approved him as the Prime Minister. From 1946 to 2016, the throne of Thailand was held for seven decades by Bhumibal. On October 13, 2016, Bhumibbal died at 88 years of age. Then his only son, 64 year old Maha Bhajiralankorn, sat on the throne as his successor.

The power shift in Thailand has happened several times. Thai Rak Thai Party won in 2001 election. Thaksin Shinawatra formed the coalition government at that time. Thaksin became the second prime minister in the 2005 elections. In 2006, Thaksin was overthrown by a bloodless coup and his political party was banned. His party debuted in different names and won the People's Power Party of Thaksin and Allies in the 2007 election. In September 2008, Prime Minister Samak Sundarabez was ousted from the court's verdict. Thaksin's close relative, Somchai Wangsawat, was replaced by the Prime Minister. In December 2008 the court verdict was abolished by the court of Somchaiya. He was forced to resign. Avisit Vejjajiva, who became the Prime Minister of the army-supported alliance Thaksin Allies won the election in July 2011. Thaksin's sister Yingluck Shinawatra became the Prime Minister. In March 2014, Yingluck and nine ministers were ousted in a court verdict. On 22 May 2014, the army chief Prothom Chan-Ocha took power through the coup.

The Janta government took steps to correct the constitution after holding the sole authority in governing the country. Considering the loss of public peace, national security, throne, national economy and administration, the army has been given absolute power by amending the constitution of Article 44. It is difficult to make politics for the politicians to make rules for the rule of law.

According to the revised new constitution of Thailand, there will be two rooms named by the National Assembly and the House of Representatives. A 250-member Senate member of the National Assembly will be a member of the Senate. These members will be nominated by the General's choice. Selected 500 members of the House of Representatives. In this process of proportional representation, the power of the big political parties will be completely eradicated.

The Prime Minister will be elected at the joint meeting of two rooms. It is seen that 250 senate members are already people of the janta. For junta candidates, we need 125 member votes. As a result, the strategy of Pratha will be successful. There will be a rise in the army-backed parties or the army will run the country. But the past record of the army's actions is not as rosy as it is. There are allegations of human rights violations against them. Economic growth has become fragile. Employees are sinking for debt. Foreign investors are turning away.

Thakasat University professor Prazak Kangkirati of Thailand thinks that the new political parties, which are without policy, face down without getting support.

In March this year, the Janta government said that since June, political parties will be banned from running programs. After Yingluck was ousted in 2014, the activities of the parties were banned. It is forbidden to gather five or more people for political gathering. Although political parties are allowed to register for next year's elections, restrictions on political issues or political meetings of the parties without the prior permission of the junta are still in place.

Defense Ministry spokesman Lieutenant General Kangchip Tantravanich said that according to the preliminary plan, restrictions on political parties' activities will be raised in June. New political parties are also ready. And older big teams are already ready. New parties need time. All new and old teams will start their activities in June.

Former MP of the Thaksin Party, Prichapal Pangapanit, said that a politician reached the people through his speech. The main foundation of the election is promotion. However, this fundamental issue has been hindered by introducing new rules to circulate around the next election. Only the electoral address can be given at the junior appointed election commission appointed venue. Maybe the speech should be given in the time of people's work.

But in this controlled situation, a question is being eaten up. And that is, the biggest block of Thai politics, the ousted Fu, the leadership of the Thai party's reversal. For a decade, this block won the elections in different names by Thai. Due to the coup and court order, this block has been torn again and again. Thaksin and Yingluck, the top two leaders of the party, are now leaving the country. Thaksin is believed to be in London or Dubai and Yingluck in Dubai. Analysts think that they are not likely to return to their home country. However, the party sources said that the team is headed by their leadership from overseas.

Political restrictions are being raised in the face of politicians, but according to critics, the junta is shuffling time to give new military-backed new parties the chance to win elections. Outwardly, trying to increase military support among the general public.

After the coup, the military junta declared a 20-year master plan to conduct the country. It was claimed that the 20-year plan will help Thailand to become a high-income country by tackling corruption. The government has said that the country's next civilian governments will be forced to follow it.

As a result, there should be no doubt that in the coming elections, the armed forces who are tied in their hands should come to power.
