“Chamai Maruchet Bridge” Today, “Elderly” Instincts (Final Episode)

Yesterday I wrote about the intuition of “ants” who often know when natural disasters will occur such as rain, thunder, and floods better than other animals…compared to the instincts of “old people” or “elders” who usually expect Political disasters are better than people in other age groups as well, especially myself, who has been sitting here for a very long time. I’ve seen a lot of events… just sitting and watching YouTube. It was found that there was a group that used the abbreviation ” The PDRC formed a speech and debate to protest a “faraway person” who had already returned home…at the Chamai Maruchet Bridge area near Government House. So I ended with a warning: I’m not at ease. I felt a foreboding about something political. It’s similar to the ant colony’s premonition about rain and flooding that I encountered while vacationing at the beach. Last week, having to write again today is not a problem. Because this Sunday My family and I have an appointment to go eat delicious food in the Phutthamonthon area. We will have to drive across the expressway and get off at Yommarat via Chamai Maruchet Bridge. Passing in front of Government House to Ratchadamnoen Nok Road. Then go across Rama VIII Bridge to travel to Phutthamonthon. You can see the scenery around Chomai Maruchet Bridge in all its glory. Makes me have to come back and continue writing this story like an “elder or senator” who is wary of political dangers. And having been through enough political events in this life, the images I saw with my own eyes (I saw it on YouTube the other day) It’s the area near Chamai Maruchet Bridge. A tent is set up. It looks like a permanent sleeping place with many tents. The sides of the tents are separated by old product advertising boards or old plywood as protection from the sun and rain. I can’t tell you how much. But it was seen that it would likely fill the vacant space in front of one of Thailand’s most important educational institutions, namely Rajamangala University of Technology Phra Nakhon. Phra Nakhon Commercial Center Or in the past it was Phra Nakhon Commercial School It was very famous 60-70 years ago, you can see the picture already. My intuition turned back to the era when there was opposition to the Yingluck government that turned into a major confrontation between two groups of politicians and ended with a coup d’état by Big Tu on 22 May 2014. At that time, it started with the formation of groups. A small percentage of people are dissatisfied with the Yingluck government that is administering the policy of people from far away countries. Having just recently returned home, I don’t remember where the first rally started. I only remember that at first it wasn’t much, but it became more and more common until it became one of the biggest confrontations of the supporters of the political ideas of both groups. I was probably a little over 70 at the time. Not affiliated with the political ideas of any one party, which has always been the guideline for writing this column. Whoever is good, that’s good. If someone’s thing is not good or worrisome, I will comment according to my style on how it is not good. More importantly, I don’t want to see arguments or clashes. Because it will lead to economic damage and the interruption of the country’s development, which is very unfortunate. I always believe that the majority of our Thai people are quite talented. Have ability and efficiency to a certain extent. Just don’t quarrel. Let’s face each other. Adhering to the principle that King Rama IX taught, “Knowledge, love, unity” will only move forward to become a country with higher incomes as hoped. I write in my own style… May you know, love, unity and Don’t quarrel…but in the end the two groups still quarreled until a third party came to seize power as happened thus. When accidentally passing by Chamai Maruchet Bridge in a car and saw the tent formed like that Even though there were still only a few houses and there were probably only a few hundred people who came to listen one night, my “elder” or “senator” instincts had already started to work. Fortunately, when I crossed the bridge Chamai Maruchet came and I looked to the right and saw it. Wat Benchamabophit, 1 of the 9 temples that I respect and will always come to pay homage to during the New Year festival. I paid respects last Sunday… praying that my unrealistic premonitions would not be a hindrance this time. True! “Zoom” click to read the column. More “Hehapati”
