An online petition has been launched demanding the resignation of Anutin Charnvirakul as public public health minister.

A petition? Really? This pack of thieves that calls itself a government couldn’t care less…and has an unblemished record of consistently ignoring what is good for the Thai people. They're only concerned with how much money they can steal. Why would they change now?

Thailand has lowered its 2021 foreign tourist target to 4 million from 6.5 million after a new wave of coronavirus infections

Never mind…those are just today’s numbers. Tomorrow we’ll be reading about millions of insanely wealthy and free-spending lemming ranchers, camel racers, pearl divers, and drawbridge oilers who will soon be arriving for lavish, extended holidays.

Thailand did a great job controlling the first two waves with low numbers compared to most of the countries in the world.

It’s beginning to look as if much of Thailand’s ‘success’ in containing the so-called first two waves was due to inadequate testing. Low numbers of tests result in low numbers of infections…..exactly what the ‘save face at all costs’ government really cares about.

Prime Minister Prayut Chan-o-cha is confident that the Covid-19 situation in Thailand will be under control....

Astounding! Besides being a military genius, world-renowned statesman, and legendary songwriter , he’s also clairvoyant ….having predicted this (well, kind of) over a year ago.

I don't believe Siam Bioscience has ever made jabs before.  A first for them.

Yes....but the important factor is their inspired and irreproachable leadership.

One way or another…every country has the government it deserves.

On Friday (April 16), Prime Minister General Prayut Chan-o-cha took it upon himself to list the various vaccine brands

Another truly grand and monumental task he has taken upon himself…..the people rejoice and sing his praises.

Pol Maj-Gen Sophon Sarapat, commander of the 5th division of Metropolitan Police Bureau, said today (Sunday) that the manager of the Krystal Club and Emerald pub was arraigned before the Bangkok South District Court on Friday, for allegedly violating the Entertainment Venue Act and the Emergency Decree

Does this mean the General will be giving up his reserved tables...and his steady hostesses?

Thailand’s Prime Minister has expressed concern over the COVID-19 situation

The priority must be to protect the country’s PM from this terrible danger.

He needs to be totally isolated, completely quarantined and securely locked down immediately….for the good of the Thai people.

Ten years should just about do it.

PM vows to combat corruption on OECD forum

Ah....but what the Hero-General means by ‘corruption’ is….

Crooked, shady, fraudulent, unethical, unscrupulous profiteering where he, the lord of all lords, is not being paid his rightful share.

Cheating him of his share is…to him....the absolute worst and most intolerable form of corruption.

Not to worry…everything is under control.

China will plan it, China will build it, China will control it…

...and Thailand will take out high interest loans from China to pay for it.

Prime Minister Prayut Chan-o-cha wants the Public Health Ministry to speed up the country’s vaccination drive

This is a rather extreme departure from normal vaccine procedures....has it been approved by the proper authorities at the Chinese Embassy?

Disgraceful that this country’s overdressed, overfed, pretend generals see injured, demobilized soldiers as little more than disposable, throw-way commodities. Thailand treats its rank and file veterans even worse than it treats its conscripts. It's truly sad and truly shameful.

Nothing confirms the truth as well as an official denial....
