Thailand: Violent, Homophobic Regime Supporters Plan "Secession"
ANGRY “red shirts” in northern Thailand are preparing to hit back as anti-government protests in Bangkok are set to enter their third month.
Having stayed largely in the background, the red shirts, who propelled the Puea Thai party to power in 2011, are upset by what they see as a weak government response to the protesters’ attempts to paralyse the capital and disrupt the Feb 2 election.
And they are quietly making plans to retaliate if Ms Yingluck Shinawatra’s caretaker government is forced, by a military coup or other means, to cede power to an unelected administration.
The Times would also report:
In the current protests, Thai police have shown relative restraint for fear that any sign of brutality would give legitimacy to protesters and provoke a military intervention. This approach has ironically hardened sentiment among red-shirt leaders.
“I am extremely frustrated,” Dr Pechawat Wattanapongsirigul, a leader from the militant Rak Chiang Mai 51 group, told The Straits Times.
If the protesters succeed in installing an unelected administration, “we will separate ourselves from the central government”, he said. “We will not live under their control.”
What the Times fails to report is who “Rak Chiang Mai 51″ (RCM51) actually is. Though they use the term “militant,” even that falls far short of describing what this network represents. Had they reported the true nature of this group, their demands and the regime they are defending would be revealed as entirely illegitimate.
Red Shirts’ Dark History Heralds Dark Future
The Strait Times attempts to portray the “red shirts” of Rak Chiang Mai 51 as merely frustrated, disenfranchised rural poor being pushed to extremes. The fact is, Thailand is full of rural poor from north to south, from east to west, and what the “red shirts” actually represent is a mere 7% of the total population - a minority even in their strongholds in northern and northeast Thailand. This number comes from an Asia Foundation report titled, “Survey Findings Challenge Notion of a Divided Thailand,” which directly contradicts the prevailing narrative peddled by the Times and other Western media fronts.
- In 2008, RCM51 shot/hacked to death by machetes an opposition community radio host’s father, after pro-Thaksin radio hosts mobilized supporters to surround his house and the father attempted to flee. Regime demagogue, Kanyapak Maneejak (DJ Aom), when asked about the incident during a “City Life Chiang Mai” interview, claimed, “the reds there all came following their hearts.”
- In 2009, in addition to large-scale street violence visited upon Bangkok which saw two shop keepers shot while trying to stop red shirts from looting their businesses, RCM51 would violently disrupt an HIV/AIDS awareness march organized by homosexual & public health activists. “Out in Perth” reported in their article, “Chiang Mai Pride Shut Down by Protests as Police Watch On,” that organizers were locked inside a building while red shirts began throwing rocks and yelling abuse through megaphones. Police looked on until organizers decided to call off the event.
- Also in 2009, Bangkok’s English paper, “The Nation” would publish a report titled, “Rak Chiang Mai 51: A pride or a disgrace for Chiang Mai?” which would describe in detail the group’s methods of violence and intimidation.
