Presently, it really is pathetic - in this day and age - the restricted content and programming and lack of variety/selection.

I surely wouldn't be expecting much. The usual corporate speak.

Halal....???????

Very Thai....

A health package and retirement plan included?

The only standards that he might hold would be the variety that benefits him and his cronies. BTW, why do we continuously refer to the good General as a Prime Minister? He's not that [technically/legally]. Never has been. Hmmmm.....just saying. ????

It's all about the children. Of course it is.

If one is in to that kinda thing. To each his own. ????

Soundly put. Such contrarian notes would be considered almost heretic and most certainly not comprehended by most - who have all been dumbed down toward such forced dependency. In the end, the winners will be the old school types.

This mindless and fanciful consumptive, accumulative and wasteful lifestyle does catch up eventually - especially when there is no real wealth to be had. All too typical throughout societies like the U.S. - where government, corporate and most certainly personal debts have no bounds. Part and partial of the delusion.

Historically, the Thai political methodology can be made up of exhausting elements and predictable outcomes.

He'll require special permission and blessings...

The burnt leafy material does offer nutrients to the soil - that's why they've been going through the motions forever. Could imagine that the same leaf waste could be processed into an ever richer mulch mix....

Get a rope.

Technically, they're not an elected government. Part of the show. .....and no one seems to mind.

Thai dessert -

Pathetic and fashionable attention seeker. Someone please put him out of his misery.

They might not display nastiness towards Thais, but always are thinking it.

There's more ethnic Kmer/Thais that saturate Surin than of Buriram. One could even make a case that Sisaket has more of an Khmer ethnic feel than of Buriram.

Start your explorative research in the far south.

Sure. Kinda makes sense in these circles. A club. A cult. Little, if anything, to do with the commons.
