The Spin

Narrative A

The true nature of Thailand's regime is now in plain sight. The decision to not allow Pita to become prime minister has exposed the reality that power in Thailand does not stem democratically from the people, but rather from the conservative establishment.

Narrative B

The fact that Pita has been blocked from premiership may seem discouraging, but there is no time for pessimism or defeatism. Given that Move Forward's main goal is to change Thailand, it's crucial to consider progress with a longer-term perspective than immediate domestic affairs.
