(Bangkok Post file photo)Once again the military government seems to be finding every excuse to try to curtail political parties and their ability to start mustering support ahead of the planned elections in less than a year from now. They are also supposed to give updated membership lists within 90 days of the enactment of the political parties law that went into effect in October. Prayut Chan-o-cha's government seems content to ban any political freedom and to hold on to power as long as it can. He said the political ban could be lifted as long as political parties do not criticise the work of the military government. The very political parties that he says are behind all the problems of this country are not to criticise the failure of the military installed government.
