    In the past, Thailand was once in the ranks of economic development, catching up with the four tigers: Hong Kong, Singapore, South Korea, and Taiwan.

     

    Prayut has been at the helm since 2014 and has failed to create a positive momentum for the country and its people. On the contrary.

    Standstill and regression in all areas:

    - Modernization of the school and education system?

    - Excellence in research?

    - Better health care for all Thais?

    - Set up a pension system?

    - Land reform?

    - Modernization of the authorities?

    - Police reform?

    - Reducing the national debt?

    - Strengthening democracy?

    - Investments in future technologies?

    - Water and sewage security?

    - Road safety?

    - Waste management?

    - Flood prevention?

    - Reduction of corruption?

    - Economic growth?

    - Better distribution of income?

    - Transparency in government spending?

    - and much more.

     

    Thailand urgently needs fresh blood with future visions in the leadership. If, as a national leader, you cannot give your country new impulses, you should resign for the good of the country.

    He was installed, precisely to prevent any of those improvements from gaining traction

    He is a naturalized Thai. He relinquished his US citizenship in the 1990s. His father worked for the US government and was not wealthy.

     

    Whatever is actual wealth is, it is self-made. Forbes has him on its list of 50 wealthiest Thais and estimates his wealth at USD1.4 billion.

     

     

    Forbes has Trump on that list too. Self made? Nope! Self made up? Maybe

    “American-Thai billionaire and hotel tycoon Bill Heinecke” ? So much is questionable in this opening sentence.
    Is he Thai, really? Is he American, really? is he a billionaire, doubtful. It is certain his daddy left him well off, with a chain of hotels. Self made man? Not a bit.
    One thing seems consistent about “billionaire” Mr. Heinecke, he seems always to be quite desperate for money. 
    I suppose he is a “billionaire”only on his loan applications, and a “pauper” when it comes to pay his fair share of taxes. 
    it is deplorable for him to suggest dual foreigner pricing and it is laughable that he thinks the Thai government cares what he advises.
