Reporters give PM New Year’s card of guardian with multiple faces, hidden hearts

By The Nation

 

 

Government House reporters on Friday gave a New Year’s card to Prime Minister General Prayut Chan-o-cha with a smiling Yaksa pop-up on the card.

The reporters said they would like to convey the message that Yaksa, a Thai mythical guardian, has several faces like Prayut, who is responsible for various duties. The Yaksa also has several hearts hidden in several places, so it cannot be killed easily, the reporters added.

 

 

PM Prayut thanked them for giving him the card. The premier said his heart is with the Thai people and the media, whom he urged to convey good messages between the government and the people.

 

He also blessed them with the Barami (a great power) of the Buddhist Three refuges, as well as invoking the late King and other royal members to help protect them and bless them with success.

 

PM Prayut also released his own New Year’s card featuring Thai Khu Fah and its newly constructed twin building, Bhakdee Bordin

Couldn't this card also be construed as believing the recipient to be two-faced and heartless?

How clean would you like that sphincter, sir?

blesses and invokes..., kisses frogs and talks to chickens

he needs a check-up

Judging from the photo of the PM, it seems to be a case of  'We are not amused'.

Oh dam, I forgot to sent my card to him, so hope TV will pass it on for me, a quick description its the reverse of Winstons salute.
