      There is little point in doing Polls under a dictatorship frankly- the Polls themselves are deeply flawed in the first place, and provide no useful indication of what future electoral results might be. Also, many people will respond how they think they 'should' respond, according to the current order of things (freedom of speech, thought, & action not exactly being high on the current agenda). Anybody that actually believes them as a national indicator is being incredibly naive, but that isn't new here in Thailand- in the English speaking press at least, the polls leading up to the election of Samak all seemed to indicate the Democrats would win. So they were all quite confident in Demlandia (right next to Noddyland), although perhaps that confidence was dented in the last few days run-up to the election, when the results appeared to be looking much closer than previous Polls had indicated. In the event, Samak (PT) won quite comfortably.
      I get the idea that some people think the Thai are such sheeple that their vote will be affected by Poll results, no matter how flawed- they will 'vote with the majority', as according to those Polls. Not so, at all. At base level, they are voting for their local MP, ie their local representative in Parliament. That preference is not going to be affected by a nationwide poll that nobody even trusts- because they are almost always proven wrong.

          April 5, 2015

          Up to 51.58 per cent of people surveyed by Rajabhat Suan Dusit University agree with the chief of the National Council for Peace and Order to invoke Article 44 of the charter to issue orders to control the situation in the country while 32.33 per cent disagree.

              The majority of Thais think General P has the nose of a gorilla. A survey taken last week revealed that the majority of 1211 respondents thought General P had the facial features of a gorilla:

              50.62% thought his facial features resembled those of a gorilla
              32.37% thought he looked more like a chimpanzee
              only 17.01%:had the opinion he had the appearance of a lizard, although all were undecided which species, stating simply kabom.

                  49.44 percent of people say they are happier now than they were before the coup
                  May 21, 2015




                  Almost half of the people polled by Nida Poll said that they are happier after one year in office of the National Council for Peace and Order since last May 22.

                  Nida or the National Institute of Development Administration sampled the opinions of 1,250 people during May 18-19 regarding national administration and how happy they are after one-year rule under NCPO.

                  The poll shows 49.44 percent of the respondents admitted they are happier now because the NCPO has spoken the truths, meant business, put the country in order and has put an end to political disturbances.

                  However, 40.72 percent of the respondents said they carried on with their lives as usual and pointed out that the NCPO has not succeeded in resolving economic problems.

                  9.6 percent of the respondents said they were less happy now than they were before the coup because of poor economic situation, high cost of living, restrictions of their free expressions and unresolved political conflicts.

                  It was pointed out that the recent poll results by Nida Poll were not much different from the results of the poll conducted six months ago.

                        People want NRC to endorse draft charter: Nida Poll
                        30 Aug 2015

                        Most people want the National Reform Council to endorse the draft constitution in line with the road map drawn up by the National Council for Peace and Order, according to a Nida Poll published on Sunday.

                        The National Institute of Development Administration poll was coducted on Aug 26-27 on 1,253 people aged 18 and over of all levels of education and occupation throughout the country to gauge their opinion on "how should the NRC and the people decide the draft charter".

                        The NRC is set to vote on the draft charter on Sept 6.

                        Asked how would they want the the NRC to vote on Sept 6, most of the respondents, or 40.7%, said they want the council to vote for the draft so that everything can proceed in line with the NCPO's road map. They believed the new constitution would be more effective in curtailing the power of unscrupulous politicians and preventing corruption than previous ones.

                        On the same question, 22.82% said it was a matter to be decide by the NRC; 20.11% wanted the NRC to abstain from voting; 14.37% wanted the NRC to vote against the draft charter, which they said was not from the people and some of the provisions in the draft were still unclear; and 2% wanted NRC members to not attend the meeting on Sept 6.

                        Asked whether they would vote for the draft charter if it is passed by the NRC and put to a referendum today, most or 40.62% said they would vote for it to see the country move forward; 28.81% said they would tick the "no vote" box, reasoning that they did not know much about it; 15.32% said they would vote against it, saying the previous charters were better; 6.23% would not go to vote; and 9.02% had no answer.
