    Future Forward secretary-general Piyabutr Saengkanokkul has urged the party’s 60,000 members to switch to a new party to be formed if Future Forward is dissolved by the Constitutional Court on Tuesday, saying he is confident that the party will be disbanded.

    This reads to me like the secretary-general is employing reverse psychology.

    If so, a pretty clever tactic.

    what’s that saying again? ‘If you are a local and you can’t get a job when someone who is new to the country, speaks the language less well and doesn’t have the connections can, it probably means you are probably useless...’
     

    These blokes struggle with facts. I mean he probably didn’t know that thailand doles out nearly 2 million work permits for low skilled workers from neighboring countries.

     

    The only skill needed? That they have a pulse.

     

    Oh yes, and they get access to health care and one or two other social services like free schooling for their kids etc...

     

     

    "I might be a rock star, but I'll never be a critic"

    This is your tag from the bottom of your post. Didn't you just criticize?

  3. We're now over the misnomer and know that Transam really meant smart phone, not iPhone.

    On that note, it is my understanding that iPhone is a minority player in Thailand. Samsung/Android is the majority.

    I own an iPhone! Not because Apple was once trendy but because when I graduated from flip phone to smart phone, Apple was the leader. I've stuck with iPhone ever since and have no plans to change. I don't hate them. I don't love them. IPhone has served me well. Their support is awesome and immediate.

    Besides LINE app, I don't partake in any social media. My smart phone is first and foremost a business tool. All of my advertising (small company) states "Text is Best First Communication".

    I field sales enquiries any time I'm awake. Evenings (even late) are often very productive. Once a new potential customer is qualified, I might shift to email on my desktop but can reply to any enquiry throughout the day instantly via my phone, text or email. My customers appreciate the near instantaneous response.

    I jump into action immediately when they contact me, every enquiry is a potential sale. Even when in Thailand, I do business in my home country.

    All because of my smartphone !

    I never leave "home" without it.

    It's a nice name : uncle too, too ...Why not ?  :giggle: or Yinn POTY 2019 ?

     

    I hope that they will give the construction concession to one or more countries which know how to make long bridges:
    USA, Japan, China, France why not?
    We have a magnificent work of art with the Millau viaduct which is a highway bridge; the Dutch too have mastered the construction of large-scale works of art

    But if named “Yinn Bridge”, it might disappear like Yinn did after being built !

    It's easy, make it illegal for sugar factories to buy burnt cane, employ one RTP officer to sit on his <deleted> at factory entrance to check incoming lorries and problem solved 

     

    Great theory. I'm certain that the RTP force would embrace it. How many trucks a day would be inspected? At 500 baht per truck, the officer would see this as a sweet deal and be smiling from ear to ear. So too would his up-line. Even the local Mercedes Benz dealer would reap benefits beyond reduced pollution.

    There's lots of winners in this program.
