14 million Move Forward citizens and 11 million Pheu Thai voters have been sent a disturbing message by the controversial criminal interventions and impenetrable in-the-middle-room discussions of the past few weeks: that their votes are irrelevant when some powers may be held responsible by the vote.  ,
As one supporter at Move Forward’s headquarters yelled, after the party’s dissolution:” Why the (censored ) are we still voting then”? !
And the less politically engaged member will still be concerned about these developments as they wait for a government to reinvigorate the country’s weak market and fulfill the election promises they made.
At the other end is the 75-year-old Thaksin, who, despite holding no formal political company or group place, could visit all alliance party leaders to his house to discuss the next head of Thailand. That speaks volumes about his enduring control.

His persistence can be demonstrated by the fact that he is still the subject of heated conversations. However, one of Mr. Thaksin’s biggest political feints may be placing his daughter in the prime minister’s chair.
If fruitless, it could not merely upend his sister’s rule, but also his own social legacy– and impose lasting damage on Thailand’s damaged democracy.
