Member of Dictatorship

edit

It should be made clear that Prawit is a part of a dictatorship and not appointed by and elected prime minister or elected to office by the people. In fact, he is a force in the oppression of the Thai populace. Using military forces, his regime threatens, detains and jails any Thai who openly criticizes the junta in power. For the record, Wikipedia should not be helping dictators whitewash the records of these human rights abusers. NaturalEquality (talk) 23:04, 7 March 2017 (UTC)Reply

Surname spelling

Name spelled (english transliteration) Wongsuwon

Bangkok Post " Prawit 'sole PM choice' for PPRP" 20 Dec 2022 bangkokpost.com Sudzydoogiedawg (talk) 00:51, 20 December 2022 (UTC)Reply

Four articles in the Bangkok Post spell his name Wongsuwon (bangkokpost.com)

edit

How does he want his name spelled in english? Either Wikipedia or the Bangkok Post has it wrong. Sudzydoogiedawg (talk) 06:21, 20 December 2022 (UTC)Reply

Royal Thai gov. Website: thaigov.go.th spells the name Wongsuwon

edit

He is listed as the Deputy Prime Minister on the official govenment website , and every time I see his name it is spelled Wongsuwon, not Wongsuwan. The Wikipedia spelling is incorrect. Sudzydoogiedawg (talk) 11:56, 20 December 2022 (UTC)Reply

While they don't constitute the clear majority of sources, I think the above examples are enough to indicate that the preferred spelling is as Sudzydoogiedawg suggests. I'll rename the article. --Paul_012 (talk) 16:03, 20 December 2022 (UTC)Reply
