Greetings from Asean Affairs, the “Voice
of Southeast Asia” magazine distributed in 35 countries and with our
industry leading web site www.aseanaffairs.com rated number 1 on Google for News/SoutheastAsia. We are pleased to inform you that ASEANAFFAIRS together with ASTRO AWANI TV Channel (MALAYSIA), Yunan TV (China) and Spring News TV (Thailand)
will be organizing “Thai Election 2011-Special Show” on Friday, 24
June, 2011, Time: 2-5 p.m. at The Imperial Queen's Park Hotel, 199
Sukhumvit Soi 22, Bangkok 10110, Thailand
We are pleased to invite you to
participate at the Thai Election 2011-Special Show which will be
discussing on the following topics:
What are the chances for reconciling Thailand after this election?
Political differences in Thailand exist
as they do elsewhere around the world. They stem from a multitude of
reasons and with each side backed by their own constituencies and
supporters, in this case the so-called “Red Shirts” and “Yellow Shirts.”
It would be too simplistic though to pigeonhole these groups as both
have supporters and detractors who do not fit neatly into the “rich
versus poor” or “urban versus rural” divide.
Governments have faced strident and
destructive street protests by significant numbers of people opposed to
that government. Major parties have called for the results of the
election to be respected. What are the chances for that? Does that
depend who wins the election or what party can form a government?
Will the firewall protecting Thai businesses from politics continue to hold?
Economics, business
Foreign investors have fled Thailand in
the months leading to the election. How can their confidence be
restored? In ANY new government, what should be the economic priorities?
What are the biggest economic challenges for the new government?
Large handouts have been promised by
political parties in the election. A recent poll conducted by Bangkok
University showed most economists favoring the economic policies of the
Democrat party. Where does that leave Pheu Thai, or are most of those
economists Democrats?
