It is good to have seen the Judiciary step up to their place. This surely will help restore some faith in the Judical Branch.
I hope that this is a real justice but not just some scpaegoat show.
I hope that this event will help Thai people to view the Judiciary as the institustion that they can go to in order to obtain justice instead of taking it to the street.

Yeah man let Vasana, Prinya and Virachai have a taste of the inside of Lad Yao prison, so they have eaten their evening meal to-day by order from a restaurant near the prison, what is this already some kind of special treatment? Why couldn't these 3 have eaten the same food as other prisoners? What about tomorrow? So it is reported that they would receive no priviledge as they would have to behave like other prisoners in the same cells!? Hopefully the warden will not secretly deliver special prepared food for these 3 during their 4 years prisonment?????
Same treatments, same colthes, same food and same prisoner-works in return for their up-keeps! Hopefully they will be sick and rotten in their cells soon!!!!!

If they are not to receive any priviledge, why did they get their dinner from a nearby restaurant?
Do the other prisoners eat from nearby restaurants?
Threatening the democracy of an entire country is a heinous crime. Let them break rocks and eat porridge for the next four years. They deserve far worse.

Secondly.. Seperation of political and administrative functions and police.
It looks like a police state... with police commanders and generals as minister and other influential people.
People don't trust police because they are part of the goverment so crimes go unpunished.

Why don't they just put a 1 million baht fine on votebuying per case. So if cought, bought the people paying the vote money and the person accepting the bribe money to vote for the party would have to pay 500,000 baht and maybe go to jail for 6 months and lose voting rights for 5 years.
I think that should act as a deterrent. Maybe not in the beginning. But when some people get caught and jailed/have to pay the 500,000 ... people will stop it.
Now bribe-voters get away with it just like that.

The Courts seem to be the only institutions whom the people will trust in the long run. Everyone should thank the judges that they did not bow to pressure. Let's hope a certain person who lacks charisma does not find ways to hurt these guards of justice for what they stood up for!

Taksin is probably happy about this. This is how he works. Now, everyone will talk about this and forget about his deeds. This fits right in his plan. I hope Thai people keep their eyes on the ball.

History has shown us that times like this are pivotal. I know we are all tired of fighting, but now is the time to continue fighting, but twice as hard. The King can't do everything. Let's work twice as hard to continue cleaning house in Thailand, from the crooked traffic police all the way to the PM's mansion. Long Live Democratic Thailand, Long Live the King!

This is good outcome for the three former stooges of the EC. In the end, justice must be served and this is the end of the line for these three criminals. I believe their jail terms should have been longer, at least 10 years, if not more, plus stiff fines and each of them should be further investigated and prosecuted for corruption and unexplained wealth that they have obviously acquired illegitimately, explaining their being very motivated to try every trick in the book to stay in the EC and to continue their malfeasance. Only if they are seriously hurt financially plus a long and deserving prison stay with no parole or pardon would they be humbled, change their ways and become truly law-abiding citizens when they finally get out of prison.

To Supaporn: The same thing happened in my village. The TRT people paid everyone 400 Bhat to vote for them and then said they would check and make sure the people voted for TRT. I think they did this all over Thailand. They are very bad people and cause us many pains.

The three convicted; EC chairman Vasana Puemlarp, EC members Prinya Nakchadtree and Virachai Naewboonnien arrived in a white van at about 7pm. It is reported that they then went through registration process and were led to their cells. The prison ordered them dinner from a restaurant near the prison.
Why they get special treatment. They are convicts like everyone else in the prison. They should eat the same as other inmates. Very bad.

Please publish the details of the judgement. While the sentence is welcome it must also satisfy the criteria of justice. Is the sentence imposed on account of a reorientation of the voting booths? We need to know.

The King made it clear he wants a new playing field.
The courts were the last possible venue for the people to see "right" be done.
It has been obvious that the EC commisioners
were not playing by the rules.
IT LOOKS LIKE THEIR PROBABLE 'RETIREMENT FUND
THAT THEY COUNTED ON GETTING,
MAYBE A LONG TIME, OR NEVER, COMING.
GOOD!
The Thai people deserved better than this "gang of Three" controling their lives.
