The minister - who started the pandemic calling foreigners "dirty", continued with various protocol breaches and tame denials and presided over the early debacle of slow vaccination now has a country ban on his CV.

You have to say the amount of evidence of his incompetence and lack of suitability for a role which requires a brain is ever growing.

It is great indeed that a few have come forward to help so many, and praises are due for sure. 

Kudos to all, whether they have taken the spotlight or shied away from it.

Never let it be forgotten though that had the government stood up and helped its people the way it should have, rather than squandering billions on submarines and the like, the need for such generosity would never have arisen.

That is a very strange place to find one of your nuts.

especially to those who are yet to receive their first dose.

Which effectively means just about everybody in the country right now as the numbers currently jabbed are almost negligible.

I am not sure that being told one in six Thais are mentally unstable is news. 

here’s what you need to know

It's going to cost you money.

I don't know what is worst? The slaughter of innocent people, the disgraceful support from China and Russia or the rest of the world doing nothing about it. The Burmese scum military have watched Thailand brutalise protesters with impunity and with partners in crime who will veto UN action, they probably feel untouchable. I have friends stuck in Yangon who tel me the situation is horrendous. This is a very sad time for Myanmar and peoples basic rights.

I notice the stories telling us how Thailand was leading the world in developing their own home developed vaccine seem to have dried up.

But, but, they had the smartest minds in the country working on it. What could possibly have gone wrong? ROFL!

I consider its return a miracle. After all it has been over 2,000 years since something died and came back to life after three days.

Pipat Ratchakitprakan, whose assets declaration suggested he has 2 billion baht, has been criticised for not having the intelligence to match his wealth. 

 

Some have cruelly suggested that his IQ does not match his AQ plan. 

That is actually a very generous way of putting things. Given the difference between dreamworld and reality, many would push the boat out way further on comments about his intellectual abilities, or lack thereof. Fool or genius (), only time will tell.

Were gambling legal, I would bet heavily against the genius.

I give the teacher a fail for this. The question was, What is your dream job? The student answered the question. 

I don't see provisos attached to the question that would make the answer incorrect.

She said it would cost between 30,000 and 100,000 baht to stay at the hotel. 

I wonder if the cockroaches in the food are included in that price?

He did however intimate that the aim was to stop quarantine altogether as soon as was possible. 

And that is the only thing in the entire article that is going to see tourists arrive in remotely the numbers he is talking of. The rest was laughable nonsense.

The Biden White House has made it clear it plans to ignore Trump's speech.

An extremely wise strategy and one which should be adopted by anyone of sound mind.

But there was a breakdown in communication

Breakdown in mental function more like. I suspect said breakdown commenced when he offered a less than favourable rate, causing astonishment and a question regarding sanity from the Chilean.

I suspect the ganja approval committee and the passenger numbers committee got their meeting rooms mixed up and the cookies thus consumed are reflected with these numbers.

People who would try to drag a hero down (this one from a world war and a domestic crisis), with such garbage are normally made by people who have never done anything worthwhile in their lives, probably never will, and so have to stoop to belittling others incredible achievements.

 Sort of people you wouldn't want to wee on if they were on fire.

I would go so far as to say it would be a serious challenge to find anyone, anywhere with less integrity than Trump.

I suspect a jury once given all of the evidence in the matter, will have more integrity than the shameful performance of Republican Senators.

This is so crazy. Every day we hear of such rip offs so you would think that people would wise up and stop falling for them.

It is hard to find sympathy for people who have lost money through being greedy and dumb.

Looking at the size of those panties, the lady might have required a "wide load" sign at the back of the car.

Success or failure depends on what sort of films they want to make of course. Given the talents the locals have to offer, the difficulty of the pornhub ban aside, some quite imaginative productions are possible.

I seem to recall another recent Democrat president saying under his leadership, the earth would begin to heal and the sea levels would even stop their rise...how has that worked out? I guess we're just back to the future.

“[T]his was the moment when the rise of the oceans began to slow and our planet began to heal ..." Barack Obama upon winning the Democratic nomination for president conveys his thinking of what that means for the world. June 3, 2008

And some people say President Trump suffers from megalomania. 

I believe the sentiment Obama was making, which you seem to have either misunderstood, or deliberately twisted, was that he intended to bring in better environmental policies, which he did.

I did not for one second take it to mean he thought he was King Canute, or a suggestion that he could singlehandedly solve global climate issues, only start the process, which he also did. Someone then came along and reversed direction of course,  and I fail to see how that would have had a better impact. At least Obama had some semblance of understanding of the problem.
