Today I've just decided to update alittle more on the Ekkayuth vs the PM issue. As mentioned earlier, AMLO has targeted Ekkayuth and close associates on numerous charges. This brings up questions if the AMLO is guilty of having double-standards and whether there was political interferrence that brought numerous rule changes in that neutral organization that made it rather pro-government.
This brings to another interesting development today, in which Khun Ekkayuth claimed that he was denied permission to hold a press conference at All-Season's Place (where he initially held his first press conference), for unspecified reasons from the hotel management. A number of other hotel establishment also denied Ekkayuth's request, which makes it rather suspicious. This brings back questions if there was certain type of "outside influence" in these latest episode?
Strangely enough, I do remember we just had a anti-dark influence crusade initiated by the Government a few years ago, and somehow it just seems the dark-influence is back. Is it just my imagination or is it just there was absolutely no malice or darker intentions in these latest developments? I think I am in a fish market at this moment.
On a related point, Our PM yesterday when hard pressed with these questions, blew off his lid again. Coupled with the the Democrat Party proclaiming they are using the wave of anti-Thaksin with the latest book critical of the Thaksin regime, our PM grew aggrevated and mentioned that the people who wrote the book or the academia is misleading everyone. A short translation would be put as "Academia are stupid, and the people who know how good the government are the good citizens of the country". In this quote, I just have to say that our PM has put his foot in his mouth again. The academia are supposed to be the peeps that are the most educated and well informed of the masses and should serve as a guiding light for the masses, but not the other word around. At this moment, the academia are serving as the conscience, that is sadly unheaded. Due to that its only fitting that the conscience would have to find other means in showing their viewpoint.

i read about thaksin's outburst on 2bangkok.com. seems like people really know how to push his buttons and make him act that way.
i didn't realize that ekkayuth was in the country or tried to get back in. would have thought he'd be arrested cuz of his participation in the alleged pyramid scheme.
The case expired so legally he isn't wrong for the charges. I don't really like that though, but oh well, I don't believe in double standards also so its kind of hard to paint it black or white here.
