Turmoil in Thailand

[gini]

Like in Myanmar,the militairy apparently dont like the influence of Soros and the globalists(catching the youth through the move forward party),because they are nationalists & royalists.
Political awareness & interest is pretty low in Thailand; generally people dont read newspapers and avoid debate & disagreements.So they kind of passively let the authorities decide and will comply.
The protests from the youths in Bangkok are paid and orchestrated to fight the status of the monarchy and mainly a tool to create division and instabilty but its not a representation of the true sentiments of the Thais .
So no,i dont expect anything serious beside a possible demo in Bangkok to make another anti royalist show ..My 2 cents

[palehorse]

Hi Ewan, there is some strikes going on since 2 or 3 weeks ago, nothing major for what I know. A friend was in Bangkok a week ago and said around the PM office in Dusit, there was a pool of people protesting, police around and 1 tank, besides that nothing, business as usual.

In regarding of this dude Pita I found nothing much about him, my wife said he has ties with the Taksin family and most Thais dislike them.. the media try to say otherwise anyway.

Found this post on a public page on Facebook and translated with Google (bad translation but it gives some idea)

The search for "Pita Limjaroenrat" returns nothing on weforum.org
https://www.weforum.org/search?query=Pita+Limjaroenrat


For what I know the former PM of Thailand Prayut Chan-o-cha still there working closer to the monarchy above of PM of the country (which has none right now, the deputy is in charge), in other words, when everybody thought he was out, he just gained more power, that is how I am seeing that. I may be wrong.

This is one to watch out, the deputy PM (incumbent) Anutin Charnvirakul (Minister of Public Health), he has close ties with WEF and he was put there in 2019 to manage covid-19 situation, he is a traitor, a fraud, a filthy globalist and he is a candidate no doubt, members of other parties says he is mentally unstable to handle any public duty, he should be out for good. he isn't a likeable person.

Politics in Thailand is a big mess, I don't get involved I read a thing or two about it when it gets real bad, besides that I live in the country only and I have almost no interest in the way they handle these things, foreign opinion here mean ****, every foreign here learn that in one way or another haha


One last thing, Thaksin has influence on Pheu Thai Party (Allied with Move Forward right after election) which is the successor of People's Power Party..
This alone tells a lot

the parties Pheu Thai and Move Forward works for the same controllers, even they have different goals, the globalism behind it direct their moves, both are the same thing. There is rumors that the military will try again to retain power and also conservatives attempt to form a minority government, these are rumors, it is hard to find info about it, I can't read Thai.

Seems I should have done a little more digging before I posted. I recall just last week watching him talking in English with some Euro/Uk media about the changes he said were needed. At the time I thought, 'this sounds a little too good to be true', the proposed changes all sounded very positive.

[palehorse]

I don't want to start a new thread about this incident that happened today in Bangkok, so be here even if it does not represent turmoil in the country, but I think we should all be paying attention, specially the ones living in big cities, this sort of event will be more and more often all around the world. It is sad because innocent people always end up losing their lives. They choose places with lots of people and kill as many as they can. A year or so an ex-police killed innocent kids inside a kindergarten in north of Thailand, that was the ultimate evil act anyone could do on this earth.. well I will post only this article but it already hit the international media.


https://www.bangkokpost.com/thailand...-mall-shooting

from the article above:

"The teenager was brought to the Pathumwan police station for questioning but he was in a confused state, saying he had heard voices telling him to shoot people, according to Pol Gen Torsak Sukvimol, the national police chief."

"The boy had received treatment in the past for mental health issues at Rajavithi Hospital, but Pol Gen Torsak said he did not want to discuss further details as the suspect was a minor."


What would be the voices in his head? Maybe some weapon of mind control? Would be interesting to know the kid's background to know what triggered that to happen and also about this specific Rajavithi Hospital.

It worth to mention, that anyone can get a gun in Thailand, specially in Bangkok (Khlongtoey and Wang Burapha neighborhood). It is just across the Chao Phraya river surrounded by ancient temples and tourist attractions.
Maybe it is something related to a new crackdown on guns they are planning to do here, I heard few things about it last month.

A somewhat embarrassing confession. I usually search for related topics before posting a new thread but on this occasion I clearly didn't.

I am asking mods, on my behalf, to tidy up my error by merging this thread with the one begun in 2020

🇹🇭 What's Going on in Thailand???

The current PM is the daughter of US proxy and billionaire Thaksin Shinawatra whose critics often end up in jail or dead - I am based in Thailand, hence why I have been quiet regarding developments since elections in 2023.

The Thai military has twice ousted Thaksin and his nominees from power (2006 & 2014).

It was a government installed into power by the Thai military following 2014 which signed high speed rail deals with China (which US-backed opposition tried to delay/stop), began replacing US weapons with Chinese and Russian systems (which US-backed groups also tried to stop), and have gradually pivoted Thailand away from status as a US proxy to a close ally of China over the past several years.

Elections in 2023 returned US-backed proxies into power - including the daughter of Thaksin Shinawatra - and an uneasy stalemate has existed since.

Recently, mismanagement regarding the Thai-Cambodia border and violence in the deep south -both connected to US interference - have created growing tensions.

Current protests in Thailand against the government are NOT NED-backed, but the groups used to carry out successful counter-color revolutions in previous years.

For a detailed look into the background of all of this, please check this guide to US interference in Thailand:

NOTE: This was published in 2020 when US-backed student protests were taking place - the 2023 election saw the parties behind these protests take office:

https://landdestroyer.blogspot.com/2...ment-role.html

Before seeing protests and rumors of coups and just assuming it is the US behind it - you need to follow the actual money and connections. Luckily I provide all of it to you in the above link...

🇹🇭Thailand in Southeast Asia - is at the center of BRICS - a key ally of China, a central hub for the Belt & Road Initiative, and its stability a factor in either enabling the rise of Asia or disrupting it.

As protests take place in the streets of the capital of Bangkok, it is important to follow the money, identify the parties involved, and understand what has led up to this point.

Do not jump to conclusions until you have sufficiently identified the groups funded by the US government (via NED/USAID) and those who have fought against them.

Yesterday's protests were carried out by groups opposed to US interference - and the current government they oppose is a nominee/daughter of a long-time US proxy...

Thailand–Cambodia Conflict: The Russian Influence

https://russiaspivottoasia.com/thail...act-on-russia/

We examine the Thai-Cambodia conflict, the impact on Russia and what it means for ASEAN.

https://russiaspivottoasia.com/thail...act-on-russia/

Thailand – Cambodia Conflict – Impact On Russia

July 25, 2025 Asia, BRICS, Eurasian Economic Union, Security, Shanghai Cooperation Organisation, Trade By Russia's Pivot to Asia

Conflict has broken out between Thailand and Cambodia, regarding long-disputed land borders and certain temples. The problems began with a Thai soldier being wounded by a Cambodian land mine and have escalated. As of Friday, (July 25) an estimated 15 civilians have died with 138,000 Thai nationals being evacuated from the border region. Fighting has broken out along 15 points along the border.

The conflict, while its roots go back a long way to French-colonial times, is unusual as both countries are members of ASEAN, the southeast Asian trade bloc that also includes Brunei, Indonesia, Laos, Malaysia, Myanmar, the Philippines, Singapore, and Vietnam. Although there have been stresses involving Myanmar, there generally hasn’t been any major intra-ASEAN conflict for decades.

https://russiaspivottoasia.com/wp-co...SEAN-Map-1.jpg

Russia established relations with ASEAN in 1991 and became a Dialogue Partner in 1996. It also participates in the Russia-ASEAN Strategic Partnership, established in 2018, and also participates in the related East Asia Forum. ASEAN is a key part of Russia’s own Strategic Development Plan to 2030, while a similar ASEAN-Russia development plan is also in place that focuses on strengthening political, security, economic, and socio-cultural ties. This plan, outlined in the 2021-2025 Comprehensive Plan of Action, is due for renewal. Russia’s Foreign Minister, Sergey Lavrov, attended the most recent Russia-ASEAN meetings in Kuala Lumpur earlier this month to finalise an updated 2026-2031 version, which should be ready for signing later this year.

Thailand

While Russia is unlikely to become publicly involved in the stand-off, it does have significant and growing relations with both Thailand and Cambodia. Thailand is a BRICS partner state and has bilateral trade with Russia of about US$2 billion, with the mutual agricultural sector and Russian tourism to Thailand showing significant recent increases. Russian exports of agricultural products to Thailand almost doubled last year, with exports of wheat flour and frozen fish seeing the strongest growth, increasing by 100% and almost 80% respectively.

Thailand is also actively pursuing a Free Trade Agreement with the Eurasian Economic Union (EAEU), aiming to boost trade and economic cooperation. The EAEU includes Russia as well as Armenia, Belarus, Kazakhstan, and Kyrgyzstan. Thailand sees this as a strategic opportunity to expand its trade partnerships and attract investment, particularly in areas such as high-tech and food security. Russia also sells military equipment to Thailand, including T-84 tanks, Mi-17 helicopters, and S-300 air defence systems.

Cambodia
Cambodia meanwhile is not a member of BRICS, although it does maintain strong relations with China. Like Thailand, it is also negotiating a Free Trade Agreement with the EAEU, while it is also an observer to the Shanghai Cooperation Organisation (SCO). That may be upgraded shortly – neighbouring Laos has just been accepted into the SCO as a partner, mainly to assist it with security issues related to opium production and smuggling.

Russian trade with Cambodia is smaller (it has a population of 17.5 million as opposed to Thailand’s 72 million, and is running at about US$50 million. Cambodian markets are somewhat difficult to reach from Russia, with most trade having to pass via China, and Russian businesses concentrating on developing both the Chinese and Vietnamese markets, leaving Cambodia somewhat neglected. However, there is room for growth, both in agriculture and the tourism sectors.

Russian weapons sales to Cambodia are limited, with the country buying most of its military equipment requirements from China. However, Russia and Cambodia have been developing security and defence cooperation in other areas, such as military exercises and port visits.

Likely Development

The Thailand-Cambodia conflict will probably be resolved fairly quickly, although there will be repercussions – border areas and crossings may be curtailed for the immediate future. ASEAN has a conflict resolution mechanism however this has obviously failed to resolve and prevent what ought to have been restricted to a minor skirmish. This points to ASEAN needing to strengthen its mechanisms for conflict prevention and resolution, including exploring ways to better utilize existing tools and adapt them to specific situations. Russia and especially China will be looking at how to resolve the current situation, with Beijing very much regionally influential.

Cambodian politics is relatively stable, however Thailand’s are less so, with an unpopular King and a history of military coups. Given that Thailand is the larger country and also faces a degree of Islamic unrest to its south, diplomats on all sides will be wanting to see the current situation rapidly solved.

🇹🇭🇰🇭 NO CEASEFIRE!! Footage shows the heavy military build-up of Thailand's Armed Forces earlier today, directly opposite the Cambodian city of Krong Poi Pet.

Despite Trump's efforts and Truth Social posts, fighting continues in Southeast Asia.

"Thailand agrees in principle to have a ceasefire in place. However, Thailand would like to see sincere intention from the Cambodian side," - Thailand's Ministry of Foreign Affairs.

The Prime Ministers of Cambodia and Thailand to meet on July 28 in Malaysia to discuss a ceasefire deal.

https://x.com/DD_Geopolitics/status/1949527532937883707

🇹🇭⚔️🇰🇭 Ceasefire Talks Set Between Thailand and Cambodia

Negotiations are now on the table:

Thailand and Cambodia are scheduled to meet tomorrow to discuss a possible ceasefire — less than a day after U.S. President Donald Trump held phone calls with both countries' leaders.

➡️[/B]Key Points:[/B]

Malaysia as Host: Talks will take place in Malaysia, which had previously offered to mediate when the conflict broke out. That offer was initially ignored by both Bangkok and Phnom Penh.

➡️Why the Sudden Shift?

There are concerns in both capitals that Trump’s administration may push for a resolution through pressure tactics commonly associated with Washington’s “diplomatic blackmail” — particularly since both sides are also involved in parallel tariff negotiations with the U.S.

In response, Thailand and Cambodia have opted to pursue a regional settlement, choosing ASEAN’s current chair, Malaysia, as a neutral platform.

➡️Regional Stakes:

ASEAN has been largely ineffective in resolving ongoing crises — from the civil war in Myanmar to growing tensions over U.S. tariffs. The start of any dialogue over the Thai-Cambodian border conflict is seen as a critical step to preserve the group’s credibility.

➡️Challenges Ahead:

Malaysia’s role as mediator may be complicated by existing tensions with Thailand. Militant groups operating in southern Thailand have reportedly received backing from elements within the Malaysian government — a point of friction that could undercut trust during negotiations.

Meanwhile, fighting on the Thai-Cambodian border continues, and is likely to persist even as talks begin — adding further pressure to already fragile negotiations.

As a very distant observer, when I study a map of the region Thailand is in, I see a continental peninsula that is very probably seen as one single item of strategic/economic concern by the world's biggest power players.




Just over the border from that area is the Yunnan province of China. I've been watching quite a lot of 'travel' videos from Yunnan Province over the last year or so. It didn't take me long to realise that Yunnan Province is one of, if not the most, agricultural resourced part of China. Yunnan has a lot of the characteristics of the smaller countries over the current border to the south of it.

China has a huge problem with it's food production capacity, hence it's interest in acquiring foreign territory like north America to expand it's food production. If Trump and whoever follows him have taken America off their menu/wish list, and the CCP global reach (Africa/South America) is predicted to get clipped back by the new emerging resistance to the uniglobal plan China was promised/gifted a big piece of, territory very much closer to home will have become the apple in their eye.

That entire peninsular seems like a dead cert' for acquisition, to me. To complicate matters, all my observations indicate that the CCP is a part player in a bigger operation, most likely run out of Europe by vey old families. If China remains under CCP control, I'll assume all it's strategic moves are those of the very old families in Europe. If China somehow breaks free (there are a few signs that is on the cards) from that control, other avenues can open up.


Here's a video with a lot of information in it for consideration when thinking through what's really what in the South China region. It's really about the primary concerns of the video maker, Chemtrails (or what he calls The New Manhattan Project) but the general information on this east Asian region has broader relevance.
