10:32 am
they've been in self imposed exile for 15 years. but arguably, the most influential thinker and type politics for more than 2 decades were 10. he was met at the airport by a huge crowds. then what's the way by the police to the supreme court, and then on to jail, to stop and they to, to then in the middle of the night taken to hospital, the medical complications and well, all of that was going on, tyler and go to new prime minister of the full months of political deadlock shirts . that's how we send representing the prototype political party became 2nd in the general election. he'll now form a coalition government. but in order to do that, he's going to have to join with 3 parties, a light, the military, part of the last administration. and the big picture is tight versus voted. overwhelmingly for reform and for change. move forward the punch in the one, the election has been shelved down to the side and put time this coalition government is going to find it very hard to create any real reform. how much of the
10:33 am
frustrations of those votes is going to spill out onto the streets as they have in the past? will tax and has been such a divisive thinker in the past proved to be a peace maker or trouble making. tony chang for inside story. bank of the well joining us now a guest in buying colt pen, child us every one of the specialist on thailand's electro system and an associate professor at my adult university in st. paul is duncan mccall, good professor of public policy and global affairs, non young technological university. he's the co also of the techs and eyes ation of thailand. and also in bangkok is cassidy per wrote me a, a full met type a form, a for an administrative. thailand's, he's a democratic policy politician and a full my yellow shots active. it's very warm. welcome to all of you. that's it. let's start with you. it's no coincidence isn't that tire tax and has returned home
10:34 am
on the same day, but his policy is know, many for prime minister one the votes in parliament was there a deal between plants high and the ministry which as well, you know, a 2 traditional enemies as a result of the national elections on the 14 of may, the move forward unexpectedly and beyond expectation and so on. at 140000000 the bullets unprecedented. and they expect that. and if the poppy had defeated, if we are the political party, especially the established political party, like to put a type under the leadership of the father of 5 and use the same as well as the establish poppies, backed by a couple of generals who stayed to the code they bought it and spent the 40 and
10:35 am
the move. busy the past the beating coming. busy with a policy campaign, as platform to bring about the drastic changes and transform mission of the kingdom of thailand to become more democratic because of the season i'm trying to jump into . because what we do know all of this from the outcome of the election. but what we want to know is how tax in managed to come back home on the same day. but his policy, the plants high policy, was able to put impala the normandy for prime minister by forming a coalition with 2 pro ministry policies. the minute trip was having ousted him some over 10 years ago before 20 years ago for i think there has. but there have been a lot of behind the scene negotiation between testing and the military establishment and the conservative element of state and thailand. but that was part of the it because these to the minute treat implants high,
10:36 am
a traditional enemies within the tight political. it's fair. but now they have a more, a more legible, dangerous comment. any me, me in the name of the fall would probably be that what that to bring about changes and perhaps even, or the ability to generalize at the so on the icons over these. they don't want to see chance. they want to see this paper as cool. so even that send us the kind of spanish, so it's have to watch them to come to get as positive because establishment and to oppose to the, to any changes that would make thailand. the king done a more democratic one more or put more back to sick bay tree. sorry. pump out a. this is a real see change with highland doesn't hit the plus high and the minute tree joining forces at least to secure the return of tax and, and to stay in power. does this mean that plus high has become positive establishment? well, yes, this is,
10:37 am
this is really clear that out what i have starting to build with military political parties and, you know, to leave all forward behind to be an opposition party. this is not, i couldn't be unpopular tired. so because you know, in the next election what time you've spent a lot of problems getting the election convinced and i was only election a result because most of the types of parker as you know, the ones the tire can be a leader and a prime minister and from the government to get the bid that move forward. this is a form of democratic society sunday and i think the as a police are pointing to what type party now switching to solve the problem, really treat government. so then that's why, as you mentioned earlier, that the do a visual being put try a party and a tool we like to be party. they kind of form together in order to bring texting back. and at the same time, the 2 minutes we political party continues to maintain that power in the colonies and government. and then they continue to load a real country, a new tire advice again. duncan, we've been here before, haven't way in thailand,
10:38 am
the losing policy guessing to rule the winning policy sidelines except normally the losing policy or is every election since 2001 the losing policy is being plus. hi, i think. yeah, i always like good saying this time is usually well known as the owner in the election results in a thoroughly democratic manner. but we've also found in the past is that the election results is one thing and the outcome is quite another example. in the last section in 2019 things didn't turn out executive platforms. the military side didn't get the kind of edge, but they want him to follow him. and then, lo and behold, the election commission disappeared behind close tools to recalculate your method of allocating popular seats, gave out a few seats to some small micro politics that no one expected to be in the moment. and then lo and behold, the permanent latrete conservative side was able to form a couple of mission and run the country for the next 4 years. so not so many people were aware of that kind of behind the scenes but new but thoughts this time with
10:39 am
leading stream, the vs machinations of the senate to be taught to move forward. lead a full, becoming prime minister, is just really raw the to for, for a lot of people to taste that confronted with the reality that bedrooms are not necessarily the determining factor and it was actually go to full government. and that's a cost. it's true that there's a common enemy and move for became a very quick hold on. and i mean, when this extremely strong showing a bit, but many people believe only stopping for hearing a supposedly to spend very well before that there was already an understanding between tax in specifically himself and the leaders all that was part of military policy. some when the techs and it's not just about prototype, it's really about him. and he has a well mean desire to reach out to try them for his, the purposes of he's quite ready to sacrifice the, to the future of actual interest of his policy for his own personal. okay. okay,
