Thai Enquirer Summary
Political News
In yet another bold move, the ‘Free People’ movement or what is called as the Thailand
Student movement under the “คณะประชาชนปลดแอก” has come out to say that they are
disappointed by the moves announced by the Pheu Thai party for not supporting the
moves to scrap the various articles in the current constitution that gives the power to the
250 appointed Senators to make the choice for the Prime Minister and the future
governments.
The statement by the ‘Free People’ that has lead the student movement that has
gripped the nation’s young generation said that Pheu Thai party has resorted to
the same old politics and not listened to the voice of the people.
These were the strongest statement against the Pheu Thai party by the
movement that has so far targeted the government and its coalition
partners so far.
The statement came early last morning after on Tuesday evening the Pheu Thai
party and the Kao Klai party split in their views about how to go about amending
the constitution that has been a bone of contention ever since it was put in place in
2016.
The Kao Klai says that it wants articles from 269-272 that should be
amended immediately in order to switch off the Senate to participate in
future selection of Prime Ministers
The Pheu Thai says that it should be the Constitution Drafting Committee
that should be decide
Pheu Thai wants to amend article 256 as a priority
Pheu Thai says that it wants to ‘switch off’ the senate and has been the
most impacted from the Senate but there are issues related to amending the
other articles and amending the 256 is therefore the priority.
Statement by the ‘Free People’ on their Facebook page
Meanwhile embattled Prime Minister Gen Prayut Chan-o-cha’s photos taken with student
representatives participating in a mobile cabinet meeting in Rayong province yesterday
(August 26) with went viral on social media after some students flashed a 3-finger salute,
a symbolic gesture against dictatorship, behind the Prime Minister.
Reports said Gen Prayut grinned for the camera without realising that someone
was making such a symbol behind him.
Gen Prayut later came out to issue a stern warning to protesters demanding his
resignation that the nation would be engulfed in flames. Their action would
instigate deeper divisions that could cause the collapse of the country. The Prime
Minister said he is sick of being branded a “dictator”.
“If we want to overcome each other politically, the nation will collapse,” Prayuth
told reporters.
“If that happens, just wait, everybody will be on fiery land, engulfed in flames.”
“Why did I have to come? Have you all forgotten? Don’t forget it so soon and
things have all improved since I took over.”

The parliament is scheduled to debate hot issues next month.
The House and Senate joint sitting has set to debate 3 national reform bills on
September 1, according to Pheu Thai MP for Nan Chonlanan Srikaew.
A general debate without a vote under Section 152 as a result of the
opposition Pheu Thai Party’s request is set to be held on September 9. Out
of 15 hours in total set for the debate, the opposition will receive 10 hours
for the general debate and the rest for government MPs.
The House’s special committee studying constitutional amendments will
submit its study results to the House on September 10.
The House has scheduled a 3-day debate during September 16-18 to
debate the 3.3-trillion-baht fiscal 2021 budget bill.
Also the Senate is scheduled to deliberate the fiscal year 2021 budget bill
during September 21-22 before the House goes in recess on September 24.
On the Royal Thai Navy’s contentious 22.5-billion-baht submarine procurement scheme,
the House Budget Scrutiny Committee which was set to discuss of the controversial
project agreed to postpone its discussion on the controversial procurement scheme until
August 31.
There are reports of an attempt by government MPs to lobby MPs in the
committee to vote in support of the procurement.
It is said that not long after the House’s meeting took place at 10.00 hrs yesterday
(August 26), Deputy Finance Minister Santi Promphat, as the committee’s
chairman, ordered the meeting to take a break and held a side-line meeting with
leaders of the coalition parties including the Bhumjai Thai and Democrat parties
while government chief whip Wirat Rattanaset sought private discussions with
Thanathorn Juangroongruangkit, who is the committee’s advisor under the Kao
Klai (Move Forward) Party’s quota, and Pheu Thai MP Yutthapong Jarassathian
who threatened to vote against the scheme
Meanwhile, the Democrat Party now shows a reluctant stance on its pledge to
vote against the scheme as party leader Jurin Laksanavisit came out to say that his
party has yet to reach a resolution to reject the navy’s procurement plan. Jurin’s
remarks contradicted some Democrat MPs who are the committee’s members
who earlier pledged to vote against the procurement plan in the second and third
readings.
Jurin said his party has not gone that far to reject the scheme as everything
is still under the budget scrutiny committee’s consideration. He said he
believed everything has a way out. The issue rests with the committee.
While Yutthapong said the committee’s meeting has been postponed with no
apparent reason, Santi said the Committee has agreed to postpone discussion of
the controversial project until August 28 to allow time to gather more
information. Santi said he plans to summon the navy to provide more information
prior to a vote on the same day.
Santi stressed that the navy’s plan to procure 2 Chinese-made submarines at an
estimated cost of 22.5 billion baht cannot be scrapped because it was approved, in
principle, in accordance with the 2020 Budget Act. However, it can be postponed
or delayed.
Akaradet Wongpitak, the Democrat Party MP for Ratchaburi, as the budgte
scrutiny committee’s spokesman, warned that 7 committee members of the
Democrat Party would abstain from voting or stage a walkout to emphasize the
party’s stance against the procurement if the key coalition party continues its push
to support the procurement project.

The royalist Thai Pakdee group led by former Democrat MP Warong Dechgitvigrom
announced a planned rally this Sunday (August 30) to protest against alleged intimidation by
the Free People and Free Youth movements. He has yet decided on the rally venue.
In his Facebook post, Warong said his group will no longer tolerate intimidation
by anti-monarchy elements which he claimed that have been threatening movie
stars and members of the media who oppose their ideology.
He invited the public and royalists to come together to no to intimidation and to
come out to protect the nation, the religion and the King.
Two student activists were arrested yesterday (August 26) afternoon on charges related to
an anti-government rally they organized on July 18.
The 2 latest activists nabbed by police were Tattep “Ford” Ruangprapaikitseree
and Panumas Singprom, according to Yaowalak Anuphan, head of Thai Lawyers
for Human Rights group. Tattep was taken into custody in front of his residence
in Bangkok while Panumas was detained while he was on a roadside. They are
arrested for sedition under Article 116 of the Criminal Code for their roles in the
anti-government rally at the Democracy Monument on July 18, which sent off a
wave of rallies across the country.
Both activists were taken to Samranrat Police Station to hear their charges. Tattep
and Panumas were released on bail and deny the charges, according to their
lawyer.
There are reports that the Ministry of Digital Economy and Society (DES) now wants to
obtain court removal orders relating to 1,024 more URLs including 661 Facebook links,
289 YouTube links, 69 Twitter links and other social media sites, minister Buddhipongse
Punnakanta told reporters.
Thailand is pushing for the removal of 1,000 online posts, videos and other
content that “breaks the law”, Buddhipongse said.
We have not violated anyone’s rights but if they break the law they will
face legal action,” he said.
Buddhipongse denied that the “Royalist Marketplace” webpage was removed for
political reasons, saying that the ministry must protect Thailand’s cyber
sovereignty.
The DES Minister has reportedly said he does not believe Facebook will take
legal action against the government and the DES Ministry in relation to past legal
requests since the platform has cooperated well with previous requests.
Key former Pheu Thai Party figure Watana Muangsook and 14 others in connection with

September 24th
.
Watana is accused of committing malfeasance while on duty.
The Supreme Court’s Criminal Division for Holders of Political Positions said it
has completed final inquiries into witnesses and has set September 24 for a
verdict in the case.
Economic News
Prime Minister Gen Prayut Chan-o-cha yesterday (August 26) pledged to reopen the
country to welcome foreign tourists. The Prime Minister said the return of foreign visitors
would begin with only a limited number of arrivals, to test the government’s disease
control measures.
The Prime Minister agreed that Thailand should open the door in a limited way to
foreign tourists so as to improve the economic situation and affirmed his
government will do all it can to ease the economic difficulties caused by the
pandemic.
The Prime Minister said Thailand needs to attract foreign tourists back and have a
welcoming system of disease control in place so local people can start earning
money again. He said there will be forms to fill in. Flights must be traceable.
When they reach their destinations their whereabouts will have to be confirmed
and they will be isolated from others.
The proposal came amid growing calls from the state and private sectors.
Tourism and Sports Minister Phiphat Ratchakitprakan was assigned by Deputy
Prime Minister Anutin Charnvirakul to chair a meeting on the topic “Safe &
Sealed Area for Tourism” at Government House today (August 27).
In line with Gen Prayut’s proposal to open up its borders to foreign visitors, Finance
Minister Predee Daichai said his ministry is seeking additional measures to promote the
tourism sector.
Speaking at an online business event hosted by the Stock Exchange of Thailand,
on the topic “Navigating through Global Uncertainties: Thailand’s opportunities
for transformation” at Thailand Focus 2020: Resiliency to Move Forward”, the
Finance Minister believed that the Thai economy has passed the lowest point in
the second quarter. He is confident that the economy will pick up in 2021 with 4-5
per cent growth.
Predee stressed that the government is focusing on prioritizing the relief and
rehabilitation measures for the people and business sector and speeding up budget
disbursement and necessary policies to accelerate an economic recovery.
His ministry mulls a raft of additional measures to spur tourism.
In a move that could impact some of the listed companies in the tire manufacturing
sector, the US Department of Commerce's new anti-dumping investigation on tires
exported from Thailand to the American market is believed to result from the US-China
trade war, as some exporters are Chinese factories relocated to Thailand, says the
Federation of Thai Industries (FTI).
Kim Eng Securities said in a note to their clients that the investigation begun on
July 26th
this year and determination is set on the November 9th
. Other countries
included in the investigation are South Korea, Taiwan and Vietnam.
Thailand exports more than 20 million auto tires annually - passenger vehicle &
light truck (PVLT). The US is its largest market (47.54 per cent in 2019). The
alleged dumping margins are between 106 per cent and 218 per cent for Thailand.
The 2019 US imports of tires from Thailand were valued at $2.7 billion (1.1 per
cent of total Thailand’s exports).
Kim Eng says that Thailand has 7-8 tire factories, mostly located in the Eastern
Economic Corridor. Five of the factories moved from China to Thailand, and
three of these primarily export tires. The other two plan to begin exports soon.
Chinese companies use Thailand as an export base for products ranging
from tires, processed food and other rubber products.

billion baht, down 27 per cent.
On a monthly basis, business registrations fell 1 per cent from June to 5,667,

sector’s concerns about a second wave of the virus.
The top 3 sectors for new business registrations in July were building and

(172).
The top 2 sectors remain unchanged from the previous month but No.3 changed
