Thailand Elections 2011

Collected by: National Library of Australia

Archived since: Jun, 2011

Description:

This collection documents the Thailand General Election of 3 July 2011, at one of the most interesting times in modern Thai history. During a period of two and a half years, elections were repeatedly promised by the incumbent Abhisit government. During this time hundreds were killed and injured in political protests. Not all Thai citizens support the election, for example the People’s Alliance for Democracy has urged people to vote ‘No’. Vandalism of election campaign posters is seen throughout towns and provinces. The Thai army state that they won’t interfere with the democratic process as long as the elected government safeguards the royal institution. The two biggest and most powerful parties, Democrats and Phua Thai are delivering their best campaigns yet with their most charming candidates. The collection consists of selected political party websites, the Election Commission of Thailand, political blogs, Redshirt supporters & PAD websites.
