To clarify the Election Commission statement: it found Thai Raksa Chart’s nomination of Princess Ubolrat to be hostile to the constitutional monarchy, rahther than the monarchy itself, which I take to mean the monarchical political system in Thailand.— Jonathan Head (@pakhead) February 13, 2019
Shutting down a pro-Thaksin TV station in Thailand, right before an election, is a reminder of the unlevel playing field on which this contest is being fought. Voice TV was penalised for criticising the military government. If you can’t do that, what kind of election is it?— Jonathan Head (@pakhead) February 13, 2019
