I truly find that difficult to comprehend. How can he think he could possibly make a go of civilian politics when all he can do is dish out the abuse and not take any in return? Is he that far out of touch with what politics is or just plain stupid? I mean, I am not even trying to be nasty with my questions. I genuinely would like to know what is going on in his head. I think he gave us an indication of his delusions when he started composing patriotic songs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If politicians and the media are trying to overthrow the government how can an election possibly be held? It would undermine the democratic process of installing ex general now politician who used to be a general (and never forget that) Prayut as Prime Minister. I t will have to be delayed until peace, order and most importantly happiness have been restored. What is more, as Thailand will be leading ASEAN in 2019, an election cannot possibly be held during that year, so sadly.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does not mean I will support the reds now all of a sudden. I will support people based on merit so if the PTP comes with a good idea i support it if the junta comes with a good idea i support it and not burn it because of who it came from. I like how the junta wants to lower bail for the poor so they can wait their sentencing out of jail like the rich. There are even things I like about the PTP too. They can all have good ideas and they can all do stupid / corrupt things. You have to understand if you looked at the coups in recent history (last 50 years or so) they never stayed as long in power as now. Usually a year no longer. So no way knowing it would be different this time. I said it before i felt it was justified to clean up the corruption and other problems with the previous government. Had they been cleaner i would not have supported a coup. But all they wanted was to get their master back. I would even support a coup to punish Prayut and Prawit (yea slow learner i know) but sometimes I just like to see corrupt people punished who would otherwise escape. I have had my 'told you so' moment for the day, but would like to comment on this: "I would even support a coup to punish Prayut and Prawit (yea slow learner i know) but sometimes I just like to see corrupt people punished who would otherwise escape." How about we compromise on a new law, instead. A new law to be applied retroactively, which would target him and his junta? You never know, he might even see the irony of it...

I would be for that too... my whole supporting of the coup was because i wanted to see the corruption and misdeeds of the previous government see punished. I had little faith that that would happen as long as they ore their party was in power. Same as i like to see Prayut and Prawit and others get punished if they are corrupt and I don't really care how. I know its a slow learner and I like shortcuts at times. But it really gets to me when those arrogant people get away with corruption. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ricardo Posted January 18, 2018 Share Posted January 18, 2018 How many divisions do the media have ? The current PM just has to grow used to the fact that, as the November-election (which he has promised) approaches, regular political-activity and comment will resume. And not everybody will view him as a hero. This is normal and expected, and part of what he has committed to delivering. So get used to it, encourage and channel it, rather than complaining about it. Unless he really does want, which I'm sure none of us would wish, to become a d*******. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steven100 Posted January 18, 2018 Share Posted January 18, 2018 (edited) are the nayers are out as usual with all their bs comments ... lol .. Khun Prayut has increased economic development in Thailand. Thailand’s growth last quarter was supported by a 4.3 percent jump in manufacturing, a 6.7 percent expansion in hotels and restaurants, and an 8.1 percent increase in the transport and storage industries. Private consumption growth remained at 3.1 percent compared with 3 percent expansion in the second quarter, while investment rose 1.2 percent. Tourism has been boosted with an expected increase in Chinese travelers. The Thai government has gained momentum in popularity since recent data was released. It appears that 2018 will be even better than last year with many projects being implemented country wide Edited January 18, 2018 by steven100 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And this is just the tip of the iceberg for the "unusual" wealth accumulated by top junta figures. Let me rephrase your last statement to make it more realistic: It appears that 2018 will be even better than last year for the Generals, with massive "commissions" being collected on the many projects being implemented country wide We are all waiting for your comments on the many threads outlining the junta's corruption.
