rooster59 Posted November 24, 2017 Share Posted November 24, 2017 Gen Prawit apologises to Tunyakan family for his remarks Deputy Prime Minister Prawit Wongsuwon has apologised to Tunyakan family for his remarks about the controversial death of Pakapong, a first-year student of the Armed Forces Academies Preparatory School. Gen Prawit said on Friday (Nov 24) that he has instructed Gen Thanchaiyan Srisuwan, the Supreme Commander, to ensure justice for the family in a straightforward manner without siding with the military. He said if what he said about Pakapong had offended the Tunyakan family, he would like to apologise them for doing that.

Samui Bodoh Posted November 25, 2017 Share Posted November 25, 2017 (edited) "He said he does not want to protect anyone and is trying to establish facts through both secret and open means, adding he is ready to take information from all sides. Gen Prayut said nobody wants to see the loss of a valuable life. All training units of the armed forces must be more careful and take the responsibility for trainees “like their own family members.” If a foul play is found in the fact-finding, there must be people taking the responsibility for it, he said. The prime minister also asked people to stop making critical remarks, saying that doing so is not good to anyone, particularly the family of the death." Why do I think that the most information collected will be through "secret means" and that no one will be held responsible? Still, he did apologize, and that is rare. I take it as proof that he is now a politician and wants to continue in office... Edited November 25, 2017 by Samui Bodoh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Get Real Posted November 25, 2017 Share Posted November 25, 2017 An appology??? The evidence must be piling up in front of his feet, almost reaching the level of his cheek. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jayboy Posted November 25, 2017 Share Posted November 25, 2017 This is no apology at all.To say that one is sorry if what one has said has caused offence is a statement with no real meaning, just a formula for taking the pressure off.An apology would involve saying one was completely wrong.

Ossy Posted November 25, 2017 Share Posted November 25, 2017 Mrs Prawit (calling from kitchen on hubby's return from 'work'): Don't forget your shrink appointment at 5, dear, before you lay into the whisky. She's going to try to help you with switching your brain on, before opening your mouth . . . could be important if P1 has another reshuffle.

rkidlad Posted November 25, 2017 Share Posted November 25, 2017 First, Thing 1 and Thing 2 said that there was nothing suspicious. Just a heart attack. Then they said that any 'punishment' this young cadet received was the norm and they'd also experienced it. Now one of the school commanders is being moved to an 'inactive post' and Prawit is apologising for his flippant remarks. What a s*** show. When will anyone in power in this country learn to say the simple words, "I don't know". I don't know. I don't have the details, but I will find out and come out with a statement when I'm informed of the information. Such narcissists. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

marko kok prong Posted November 25, 2017 Share Posted November 25, 2017 Interesting that Prayuth said he was sorry if the incident had made people feel 'uncomfortable' a very Thai way of phrasing it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's just a trick of the light but it's true that Prawit's head is a mere 8.3" (8.6" being normal)… totally opposite that of his big-headed boss. Prayut's head is 10" as we all know, the mystery being, of course, what the hell is it stuffed with? In Prawit's case - known as the undersize head syndrome (or UHS) - this would account for the frequent detritus that spills from his mouth before his U brain has chance to filter it. Well-spotted, though, espec in those adverse conditions. Edited November 25, 2017 by Ossy punctuation Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
