Veera Attacks Anutin Over Wall-Running Post, Cites Corruption
Pheu Thai deputy leader Veera Kanjchuchatro attacked PM Anutin's cryptic social media post, arguing the "wall" Thais hit daily is government corruption and electoral fraud that the administration normalizes rather than addresses.
On August 9, 2024, Veera Kanjchuchatro, a Pheu Thai party-list MP and deputy party leader, posted a Facebook response after Prime Minister Anutin Charnvirakul posted a message saying "running headfirst into a wall every day, but the wall just gets taller and thicker. If we keep running into it, it will only hurt more."
Veraa argued that the wall Thais face daily is corruption, election fraud, fuel hoarding schemes, civil service exam cheating, and parliamentary wheeling and dealing—all issues the government is normalizing and turning into part of Thai society itself.
"Anutin's strength is his fearlessness about political circumstances and his indifference to public opinion," Veera stated. "Whenever the country faces problems, Anutin simply runs to the top, and his subordinates scramble to deflect and shift the political narrative, which has apparently worked well consistently."
Veraa added that the government also allows favored technocrats to queue for power within the system, taking the stage to showcase visions of economic transformation—AI data centers, medical hubs—designed to make people forget the intensifying corruption that has become entrenched in the system. This, he concluded, means the wall will only grow ever higher without end.
