Tuhia he haere tonu mo tenei irava - I te Paenga-whāwhā o te tau 2014 i whakatau te Kooti Ture i te pōtitanga he kore ture na te mea kaore i oti te pōti i te ra kotahi puta noa i te motu. Whai muri i te whakaaetanga i waenga i te Komihana Pooti me te kawanatanga o Yingluck, i whakaritea nga pooti hou mo te 20 o Hurae. Heoi anō, i whakakorehia ngā pōtitanga i muri i tētahi coup d'état
I te marama o Mei, ka whakakahoretia te kāwanatanga i whiriwhiria, ka whakatūria he kāwanatanga hōia e mōhiotia ana ko te National Council for Peace and Order (NCPO), e ārahihia ana e General Prayut Chan-o-cha, te Kaiwhakahaere Matua o te Royal Thai Army. Ko te NCPO, i te wa i riro ai te mana, i kii tana hiahia ki te whakahaere i nga pooti whanui i muri i te whakatutukitanga o nga whakahoutanga me te whakaputa i tetahi kaupapa ture hou.
