Toon beats Prayut in ‘most admirable person of year’ poll

By The Nation

Charity run hero Artiwara “Toon” Kongmalai has been voted the most admirable person of the year, overwhelmingly beating Prime Minister General Prayut Chan-o-cha, an opinion survey found.

 

The survey was carried out by Bangkok Poll, from Bangkok University, which interviewed 1,154 people from December 9 to 12.

 

The survey results announced on Saturday revealed that Toon had 83.5 per cent of votes from the respondents. Prayut came second with 11.1 per cent of votes. Paveena Hongsakul, who owns a foundation that helps women and children, came third with 1.4 per cent

I am seriously disappointed. NOT!

Toon for prime minister.

 

I'll bet he doesn't own a single Richard Mille watch.

Just look at the 2 photos, 1 photo of a man doing his best to help people.

1 photo with a smug grin, look at me i am better than you.

But, I´ve never ever expected this! Here they really have to check so there hasn´t been any manipulation with the numbers. :cheesy:

WHAT?! How is that even possible?  I would think it would be more like 0.0111% considering it's for ‘most admirable person of year’.  I'm guessing Bangkok Poll only polled Bangkok folks, certainly not Isaan or northern region Thais.  And it certainly didn't include any TV expats... except for maybe one... junta-worshiping steven100 (aka Little P himself). :shock1:

The 11% Prayut votes surprises and saddens me. If it's true that 11% of Thais 'like' Prunella, the omens aren't looking good for next year's election. I looked OK until this news ruined my day . . . now look at me!

Well who'd have thought a singer would beat a prolific songwriter! Maybe it was the lyrics that tipped the balance.

Some people like Marmite, weird isn't it how some people like something that always leaves a nasty taste in your mouth  

I,m surprised Prayut was even in the running......:whistling:

Obviously not a poll by the junta, rigged.

How was Yingluck missing from this poll?

toons done a great thing, highly respect him for what he's achieved. i'll not mention prayut. there are some amazing people in thailand doing great things that would probably be up there with toon if the general population knew more about them. people working in medical research for example, but for those that are 'known' then hats off to toon, he's the man

My vote went to Lamyai

She's a right twerk....

Ouch 11.1%

2nd 11.1% come on who did they ask his mates, when will the lies stop?

The sad part is that 11% think that General Prayuth is to be admired.

Perhaps they all got 500 Baht for voting?

Time for a TVF Poll.............:shock1:

+1.

I do not think it was difficult to do!

Ridiculous that Mr. Smug Grin is even an option in the vote.

Anyone noticed Prayut stopped his weekly keep fit videos? I guess there was too much competition.

Does this means that Toon will be called in for "Attitude Adjustment"?

The main question is:
"Do Toon is a better musician as Prayuth"?

 

You can expect Prayut to have the news censored with article 44 and this item retracted an a misprint and in violation of the 'computer crimes act'..... LOL

I didn't know he had any keep fat videos.

I think that is kind of what happened when Toon entered bangkok. Pretty sure the last thing he wanted was to have to meet and greet and get hugged by the PM.
Its not lost on the PM that his close relative is a prominent red shirt.
