Political News

In what could be the most tensed day in the past 4-decades in Thailand’s history, protest

leaders have come out to openly say that they will show the 3-finger salute, while the

motorcade of HM the King passes the protest area.

Outspoken Human Rights Lawyer – Anon Nampa, has come out to post that they

will show the 3-finger salute to HM the King’s motorcade when the motorcade

passes the protest area on Wednesday October 14, 2020

This is a post from Anon Nampa’s Twitter page

Outspoken Human Rights Lawyer – Anon Nampa, has come out to post that they

will show the 3-finger salute to HM the King’s motorcade when the motorcade

passes the protest area on Wednesday October 14, 2020

All political pundits and even former protest leaders such as Jatupron Prompan have all

come out to request that the student movement scale back their planned protest to just

protesting and not showing the 3-finger salute or placards that says anything to do with

the demand for the reform of the monarchy.

HM the King has an engagement to be at the Grand Palace @ 17:00 hrs and has to

pass through the Ratchadamnoen avenue to go to the Grand Place

Meanwhile protest leaders announced to camp out and surround Government House from

October 14 when the Khana Ratsadon 2020 (People’s Party 2020), an association of the

Free People Group, will stage a mass rally at Democracy Monument in Bangkok on

October 14.

The authorities have warned that protestors cannot enter within 50-meters of the

Government House while they are undertaking the protest.

There are reports that the Royal Thai Police Office (RTPB) will deploy riot police

to keep peace and order on the protest day and it assigned officers to try

negotiating with protest leaders not to use the 3-finger salute because it is deemed

inappropriate, especially after a royal procession through the rally area on October

14, according to a security agency source.

The RTPB is reported to beef up security to handle pro-democracy rally

scheduled to be held from 14.00 hrs on October 14 near Democracy Monument

on Ratchadamnoen Avenue, with the Metropolitan Police Bureau being instructed

to set up 21 security checkpoints to screen people heading to the protest and

weapons from the evening of October 12.

Free People posted on its Facebook page that they would not block the royal

motorcade during the rally on October 14, but would instead make way with a

three-finger salute in order to enunciate their demand for reform of the monarchy.

Human rights lawyer and protest leader Anon Nampa announced during a brief

speech at a pro-democracy rally in Nakhon Ratchasima province on the weekend

that pro-democracy protesters would take the opportunity to make the case for a

reform of the monarchy directly to His Majesty the King when the royal

motorcade passes the rally site that day.

Kao Klai (Move Forward) Party leader Pita Limjaroenrat pledged to join the

major rally on October 14 organised by the Khana Ratsadon 2020.

Former United front for Democracy against Dictatorship (UDD) or Red Shirt, chairman

Jatuporn Promphan came out to say that the recent protests in the provinces have all

shown that the number of people attending the protest movement has shown smaller

numbers and the protest leaders such as Anon should realize that the number of people

who will come on October 14 may not be that many as in the past.

Regarding the Khana Ratsadon’s October 14 planned rally, UDD’s chairman

Jatuporn lashed out at the group’s call for the reform of the monarchy, saying that

he was not afraid to be taken down but was worried for young Thais whom he

perceived as being manipulated by masterminding puppet masters who operate

from inside and outside the country. He said it was the protesting youths would

rather get the blame than the masterminds who pulls the strings from behind.

He warned protesting youths to rethink of consequences because the point is that

the October 14 rally, a day after the anniversary of the late His Majesty King

Bhumibol Adulyadej’s passing. A sea of yellow shirts is expected to sweep

Thailand at October 13 events to commemorate the late King, Jatuporn said.

Twitter’s revelation that Thailand has violated its platform manipulation policies by

conducting state-backed information operations (IO) with 926 accounts that it could

reliably link to the Royal Thai Army (RTA) drew up negative criticism from various

government opponents as well as a House committee.

Chaturon Chaisang, former chief strategist of the defunct Thai Raksa Chart

(TRC), took to his Facebook page to call on embattled Prime Minister Gen Prayut

Chan-o-cha, in his ability as the Defence Minister, to order the RTA to put a stop

to such activities that engaging in behaviour targeting political opposition figures.

Chaturon lashed out at the army and the new army chief that the use of

social media accounts in the manner alleged by Twitter is an embarrassing

act. He said the new army Gen Narongpan Jittkaewtae did not speak the

truth when he said the army would not get involved in politics.

In response to this matter, the military denied its involvement as its spokesman Lt

Gen Santipong Thammpiya came out to say, “The Royal Thai Army has not used

social media accounts in the manner alleged by Twitter,” :A thorough

examination needs to be conducted on all suspended accounts,” he added.

In the same disclosure, Twitter said it had suspended 668 other accounts

attributed to Russia, Cuba, Iran and Saudi Arabia.

Meanwhile, the opposition Pheu Thai Party called for the House committee on military to

investigate the army’s using IO to meddle and intimidate government opposition figures

to stir up divisiveness and hatred after the RTA’s online information operations have

again come under the spotlight.

Prasert Jantararuangtong, Pheu Thai MP for Nakhon Ratchasima as the

committee’s advisor, said he will propose to the committee on October 14 to

probe into the allegation. Prasert accused the army of violating the Computer

Crime Act by involving in information operations.

Prasert said he will also ask the committee to summon Prime Minister Gen Prayut

Chan-o-cha, as the Defence Minister, to clarify the matter himself.

Pheu Thai’s Pichai Naripthaphan vowed to push for a cut on defence budgets as

he said the army spent taxpayers’ money to fund its IO network to create

divisiveness among the public and undermine national security, instead of using it

to boost security. He also pledged to cut all budgets for tanks, armoured vehicles,

submarines and luxury VIP transport jet for top generals.

Four networks joined forces to launch the Re-Solution Group to push for the abolition of

the 2017 constitution.

At the Multi-Purpose Room on the 1st floor of the Bangkok Art and Culture

Centre (BACC), Progressive Movement leader Piyabutr Saengkanokkul

announced the launch of the Re-Solution Group: Time for new constitution. The

group was formed under cooperation of 4 networks including the Progressive

Movement; the Kao Klai (Move Forward) Party; Parit ‘Itim’ Wacharasindhu,

former Democrat Party MP and founder of the Advance Constitution Group, and

Yingcheep Atchanont, representative of Rights group Internet Dialogue on Law

Reform (iLaw).

The group’s main goal is to campaign for a new constitution that truly belongs to

the people. Piyabutr likened the 2017 constitution to a ticking time bomb that led

to political establishments like government MPs and the Senate that are not

sincere to push for charter amendments as they fear to lose power derived from

coup makers.

A majority of people believed old political groups are behind political demonstrations

that defended the constitutional monarchy, according to an opinion survey released by

Super Poll.

The poll entitled “new or old political groups and political mudslinging”,

conducted on 5,260 people across the country during June 1-October 10, found a

majority of people, 93.3 per cent, believed that old political groups are behind the

scenes in supporting the protests that culminated with the ousting of the current

government without taking into account of economic woes facing the public to

reap personal gains.

In contrast, merely 6.7 per cent of respondents believed that new political groups

are behind street demonstrations based on their policies that inspired the younger

generation amid the COVID-19 era and rampant social media use as a main

communication channel influencing Thai youths, said Noppadol Kannika,

director of the Super Poll Research Centre.

On popularity of political parties, the poll found the Phalang Pracharat Party

(PPRP)’s rating rose over the period while the Kao Klai (Move Forward) Party’s

rating plunged over the same period as shown in the graph below.

Economic News

Khunying Sudarat Keyuraphan, former chief strategist of the Pheu Thai Party, came out

to question the democratic credibility of embattled Prime Minister Gen Prayut Chan-o-

cha’s administration.

In her Facebook post, Sudarat was fired up by reports that Japan’s newly

appointed Prime Minster is considering state visits to Vietnam and Indonesia in

his first official overseas trip, that Tesla plans to set up manufacturing units in

Indonesia and India and that Panasonic’s moving factories to Vietnam, causing

800 job losses Thailand.

Sudarat said all these reports are a bad signal to the Thai economy, showing that

the country is losing its status as a regional vehicle production hub and export

hub.

Sudarat went on to say that she is worried about the government’s incapability to

figure out reasons behind such relocations while it instead exhausted all resources

to support investment in the Eastern Economic Corridor (EEC) which were

perceived as nothing that help Thailand gain the upper hand in the eyes of

investors.

The Pheu Thai ex-chief strategist said sadly Thai people cannot change

government because the current charter was designed to help embattled Prime

Minister Gen Prayut Chan-o-cha’s grip on power.

The National Economic and Social Development Council (NESDC) is set to invite the

Federation of Thai Industries (FTI), the Thai Chamber of Commerce (TCC), the Tourism

Council of Thailand (TCT) and the Ministry of Finance to form action plans after debt

relief measures by the Bank of Thailand (BoT) expires on October 22, according to

Danucha Pichayanan, the NESDC’s secretary-general, said.

The move is in an attempt to help struggling businesses and retail borrowers, the

central bank laid out four categories of relief measures, spanning multiple types of

policies such as interest rate reduction, debt payment deferment and reduction,

provision of additional credit and debt restructuring.

Once new measures are clear, the NESDC will forward them to Deputy Prime

Minister in charge of economic affairs to propose to the Center for Economic

Situation Administration (CESA).

While the economic woes continues, some companies continue to offer good bonuses

although their pain is likely to be felt in 2021 as the sales volumes in 2020 are likely to be

down.

3 of the country’s top automakers are set to pay decent bonuses.

Toyota Motors Thailand employees are set to enjoy the highest bonus

rates at 7.2 months with special benefits of 20,000 baht, according to a

source with the auto industry.

Tri Petch Isuzu Sales, the local distributor for the Japanese truck maker, is

set to offer a 7-month bonus to all employees and special benefits or

20,000 baht

While Honda is set to offer a 7.5 month-month bonus with special benefits

of 41,000 baht.

This comes after Toyota Motor in September this year launched a leave without

pay scheme that offered compensation payments of up to 54 months in a bid to

reduce financial strain on the company amid the COVID-19 outbreak which

caused car sales to plunge to the lowest in several decades.

Thai Airways International Plc (THAI) said it plans to lay off more workers and offer

early retirement to its staff to trim its workforce in a bid to extend its cash reserves to last

until April next year.

The troubled national carrier offered 2 early retirement packages: one is called

Mutual Separation Plan: MSP A. The company urged applicants to submit their

applications during October 15-30. Under this early retirement, successful

applicants are promised to receive severance pay of two to 14.33 months

according to the law, plus other benefits from the company. The furlough

programme will be effective from November 1-April 30.

The other is Leave without Pay or LWOP+MSP B). Applicants are urged to

submit their applications during October 15-30.

The flag carrier’s acting president, Chansin Treenuchagron, said about 80 per cent

of THAI’s 19,000 employees have cooperated with the company by voluntarily

cutting their salaries or by taking unpaid leave, saying their cooperation will

enable the company to last until December.

The Public Debt Management Office (PDMO) expects Thailand’s public debt for Fiscal

Year 2021 to rise to 9.3 trillion baht as a result of a government new borrowing plan of

another 1.64 trillion baht.

Thailand is set to face an increased public debt, attributed to additional borrowing

of 1.64 trillion baht on top of 3 trillion baht to sustain the economy which has

already received the nod from the Cabinet.

As of August 2020, Thailand’s public debt stood at 7.66 trillion baht or 47.90 per

cent of GDP, according to a report from the PDMO.

Minor International (MINT) may have to lay off its employees for the second time and

temporarily close some hotels that had previously resumed operations due to the impact

of Covid-19 on tourism.

MINT chairman William E Heinecke told Bloomberg News that some hotels

operated by the company were unable to pay monthly salaries to employees

because there were no guests.

“MINT has faced net loss in the second quarter of this year and laid off thousands

of employees to enable the company to operate its business amid the Covid-19

crisis that has caused an impact on tourism even in countries that have been able

to contain the spread effectively, such as Thailand,” he said.

Gold export for the first 8 months skyrocketed 97.52 per cent to US$12.27 billion, driven

by global demand for gold which had surged during this period as people are opting for

safe-haven assets during the economic crisis.

Thailand’s export of gems and jewellery in the first eight months of this year rose

32.77 per cent year on year to $15.206 billion, said Sumed Prasongpongchai,

deputy director of the Gem and Jewellery Institute of Thailand.

If gold is excluded, then export during the period dropped 43.99 per cent to

US$2.94 billion as consumers have been cautious in spending due to the Covid-19

outbreak.

New Finance Minister Arkhom Termpittayapaisith will begin his office on the first day

today (October 12) at the Finance Ministry after having his photo ID taken and completed

the swearing-in ceremony during the weekend before taking office.

When asked by reporters if he felt any pressure from his appointment to head the

finance ministry’s portfolio during the current economic crisis, Arkhom said he

did not want to say anything.
