will the Thai ppl revolt against the Thai ARMY n COUP plotters?

Answer 1

Unsure. People in small towns and villagers support the prime minister because he delivered on some of his election promises.. The business, intellectual and professional classes in the cities are angry about his corruption and where he got the money that made him a billionaire. The Army alledgedly has the approval of the King who is considered divine.

Answer 2

the administrative Reform team under the Democratic equipment with the King simply by fact the top of State - comprising the very superb commander and commanders of the militia and the national Police Bureau - has the opinion that the administration of the country by the caretaker government has created intense branch unparalleled in Thai society. The practices of corruption and malfeasance and nepotism are curiously rampant interior the forms. besides, there is interference with self sufficient businesses to the quantity that they are no longer able to accomplish their responsibilities or come to a determination problems with the country. If the placement is authorized to proceed, national stability and fiscal equipment would be affected as an entire. Occasional political activities could have affected the respect of His Majesty the King - the liked monarch of the Thai human beings.

Answer 3

Thai people will not revolt against the Thai army & coup plotters as you can see from the various coup that occured previously.

Answer 4

Definitely not. They are dancing in the streets.
Here's a letter from Thailand
'When my wife finally stopped singing and dancing around with our son at 7.45am this morning, she shouted out "Damn good!"
a) few people outside Thailand really know how Taksin has so cleverly usurped, benefitted from financial corruption instead of tackling it, bought up enormous tracts of his own country in areas of future development, bought foreign homes while barring foreigners from doing the same here, sued every major media outlet that criticised him and done NOTHING for the poor, and especially the hilltribes. Smiled at foreigners while restricting visas even further and pursuing policies which may ultimately be seen to be xenophobic. Full of promises and no delivery. Even his home city Chiangmai has waited a year in vain for his promised 53m baht to tackle flooding.
b) yes, he was democratically elected. The second time. Like another western premier we could name. At the first one he bought his way in with the "million baht per village" offer. That turned out to be a loan, not a gift of course, but it did the trick. Literally!
c) In my personal view this bloodless coup would not have taken place so smoothly, if at all, without the tacit consent of His Majesty. Maybe the writing was on the wall days ago? It is reported that Taksin took his whole family to the UN conference - unprecedented.
d) Dancing in the streets? Well there should be wherever thinking people are to be found (ie mainly in Bangkok). What we have in the streets here are lots of armoured personnel carriers and soldiers with rifles slung, looking a little bored and confused. But they don't mind having their photos taken as I proved on the way into the office this morning. Not allowed to talk, though, and many don't know what is happening.
e) Next? One of many responsible comments by General Sonthi was that the army would not hang on to power for very long. A coalition government, maybe with the promising young Democrat Abhisit to the fore, could be great!
f) We live in quite exciting times, but feel totally safe and very curious about the spin-off effects. Prayerfully this can only be good for Thailand!'

Answer 5

Unlikely to have a revolt in the cities. They are all against the PM Thaksin and his personal successes. Thaksin is better supported by the rural folks and the military is out in force only in the main city Bangkok to protect the key installations and blockade the government buildings.

Answer 6

I think not.. Although Khun Taksin Is/was a popular figure I think most people would aggree some thing had to be done,,, I beleive the coup plotters had an audience with the King prior to the coup, and I beleive that was agood sighn..

Answer 7

No...I don't think so. We need some change. By the way it is not only Army in coup...Air Force, Navy and Police are there too. And people brought them food and drinking water since this early morning. Do you call this "coup"? Military just want to have some real exercises before the tanks get rusted that all....loll

Answer 8

The coup leader is the boss right now.....and he's just made a statement this morning that if you revolt or gather in groups of more than 5 people, u will be sent to jail for six months or/and fined Bht. 10,000.-............I don't think the people r willing to take that risks......afterall it was a very peaceful coup........

Answer 9

Most people in Bangkok and the surrounding urban areas are happy that Thaksin is out. The dude was corrupt and incompetent, not to mention a control freak and an egotistical greedy slimeball in cahoots wiht the burmese junta.
In the countryside people have been duped by his populist policies so they might be angry, but they won't do anyting about it because they will be too busy working to get out from under the mountains of debt Thaksin encouraged them to obtain to rebel.

Answer 10

I seriously doubt it. I live here (Thailand), and the vast majority of people support the coup and think it's about time. Thaksin is a megalomaniac, obsessed with power and profit. He's screwed the country over so many times, and should have stepped down about 8 months ago.
Everyone here is extremely happy about it, and everything is calm and normal.
