Garland-seller’s son offers lesson in humility

Refreshing to see someone with a sincere and principled sense of values. The successful future of the country depends on young people like this.

Seeing as the Thai army has killed more Thais in recent history than they have foreigners; I’d say these lot are immensely brave. 

The...only....real...purpose of the Thai army is to threaten and point weapons at Thai people.

Their only other function is to occasionally dress up for Hi-So parties and try to look pretty.

If Thailand were ever invaded by some foreign 'threat'....the Thai army would surrender so fast they probably wouldn't even have time to try and sell their gear.

Army to Buy B1.35bn Aircraft to Replace An Old Plane

Another brilliant, far-sighted move by the Hero-General and his heroic band of well-dressed warriors.

While others are wringing their hands and moaning about silly distractions like the economy…the Fearless Leader stays focused on the priority issues facing Thailand. As all correct-thinking people know...lavish, extravagant, luxurious transportation for the military elite is absolutely essential to ensure the country's security. And security is job one.

All true patriots joyously praise the nation’s leadership....who remain battle-ready and poised to meet any and all challenges.

Security agencies to monitor anti-government student activities

Of course. The people's safety is the government's top priority...and the people must be made safe from themselves.

Gov’t reaffirms people’s safety is top priority

After, of course, the generals have taken in their monthly tribute...in the form of salaries, wages, payments, incentives, commissions, bonuses, compensations, donations, offerings, shares, dividends, gratuities, fringe benefits, etc etc.

Youth launch protest against 'deep-rooted Thai dictatorship

You have to applaud their idealism, respect their patriotism, and admire their courage....but the odds are still stacked steeply against them.

Unfortunately…the greedy, opportunistic gang of thugs that has stolen their country will only leave when they are forced out at gunpoint by new gang of greedy, opportunistic thugs.

And the cycle of uniformed banditry will continue….

Saowaluck told Sanook that when the customer arrived in a Honda Civic...

What kind of 'large, male....tough guy celebrity fighter drives a freaking Honda Civic?

Visit your neighbor for a friendly and amiable chat.

Tell him (quietly) that someone has damaged your car. Let him know you’re telling him this because of your close friendship and you want him to be careful...as there are vandals about.

Then tell him (with just the trace of an evil smile) that the wax on your car contains a very powerful…but very slow acting toxin that is released when the surface is scratched. A special farang poison so lethal that the slightest contact will ultimately result in a painful and lingering death. Of course you don't worry because you have an antidote...but the person who damaged your car is in deep trouble.

Remind him again to be careful, tell him again how much you value his friendship...and return home. Make sure to smile and wave whenever you see him.

Rayong man claims being manhandled, hit with 3 charges over messages slamming govt

Apparently these two treacherous malcontents have maliciously failed to have their confidence rebuilt by the Hero-General.

This would clearly qualify as treason, sedition, disloyalty, rebellion, insurgency, insurrection, mutiny, subversion, blasphemy, heresy, apostasy…and...at least another two or three hundred offenses.

Thank goodness the patriotic, ever-vigilant and correct-thinking police were able to swiftly arrest these desperate and dangerous criminals....and protect the community from their foul thought crime.

Confirmation that the CCP does indeed control Chinese companies and that Boris made the right decision in telling them to sling their hook.

(and a good way to express displeasure at their violation of the HK agreement) 

It confirms nothing of the sort.

 

China’s response to the UK/Hong Kong has yet to come.

It may have more to do with the fact that all Chinese companies and all Chinese citizens are required by the National Intelligence Law of the PRC to “support, assist, and cooperate with national intelligence efforts”...as specified in Article 7 (see below).

Article 7: All organizations and citizens shall support, assist, and cooperate with national intelligence efforts in accordance with law, and shall protect national intelligence work secrets they are aware of.

https://www.chinalawtranslate.com/en/national-intelligence-law-of-the-p-r-c-2017/

 Huawei obviously falls under this law and is therefore….not an independent corporation…but, in accordance with Chinese law, a direct agent of the PRC.

Is this the same world-renowned confidence builder who, in January, told the country.....the coronavirus situation in Thailand is “100% under control”?

Chiang Mai: Thai caddy wants half a million baht after foreigner hit her in the eye with a ball

New Immigration requirement…effective immediately.

All farang are now required to purchase a minimum of 30 million Baht golf liability insurance. Farang who actually play golf will be required to buy a 60 million Baht policy.

Only policies from selected and...'Trusted'...Thai companies are acceptable.

Seven Pattaya pubs flouting smoking bans

Bars have been paying the police to ignore the smoking ban since day one.

This sounds like some of the recently reopened bars maybe haven’t been quick enough to pay the required smoking bribes…which have, in all probability, been significantly raised to make up for lost police revenue.

And a ban on "Advertising alcohol consumption" is just one more coercive shakedown to keep the police fat and happy.

It's obvious the police are setting an example of anyone who isn’t showing the right attitude. Good Thai citizens are expected to fully cooperate with official extortion.

Super Poll says 86.3% do not trust Thailand’s political parties

However, a subsequent, highly esteemed, absolutely honest, proven-to-be-accurate, Super-Duper Poll showed that while people mistrust politicians and political parties…..a resounding 128.4% of Thai people have complete trust in all 4,782 of the Thai Army's generals.
