      @@PJK19 The military hold 250 seat from the house which were not part of the election. If you add that to what they got from election they still don't have enough? Even if Pheu Thai win she is from that old corrupt party. We live in Isan everyone voted for her here (some voted for FFP) but still, a lot of family here received bribe money from her party (as low as 300b per person) to vote for her. I do not trust the Thai election system, 2 million vote were not counted.
