snoop1130 Posted February 5, 2018 Share Posted February 5, 2018 General Prawit to stay on to ensure national security: Defence Ministry’s spokesman Deputy Prime Minister and Defence Minister Prawit Wongsuwan is not going to step down, but will carry on with his responsibility and duty to ensure national security and public safety, said Defence Ministry’s spokesman Lt-Gen Kongcheep Tantrawanich on Monday. Commenting on the criticism and calls for General Prawit to resign over the expensive wristwatch scandal, Lt-Gen Kongcheep said the criticism and calls for his resignation constituted expression of opinions in a democratic society that all parties concerned should respect and listen with impartiality and should consider constructively. Reminding the people of the bitter experiences they have gone through and the common lesson they have learned, the spokesman said that tolerance and reasoning would be the two elements which would enable the people to overcome their difficulties.

baboon Posted February 5, 2018 Share Posted February 5, 2018 (edited) So another lie to add to their already impressive resumé, not that anyone was expecting otherwise. The middle finger is once again extended towards the Thai people. Edited February 5, 2018 by baboon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

darksidedog Posted February 5, 2018 Share Posted February 5, 2018 Headline should read "Prawit the bullshitter to stay on to keep feathering his nest."

Eric Loh Posted February 5, 2018 Share Posted February 5, 2018 Not surprise even though he categorically said that he will resign if not wanted. This junta government is not to be trusted with their promises and assurances. They not leaving any time soon and it is up to the Thais what they going to do about a untrustworthy and corrupt regime.

mentalcolonization Posted February 5, 2018 Share Posted February 5, 2018 Keep it up Prawit. So the netizens thinks with internet they can pressure you to stop defending their country ? or maybe they want some rice scheme projects . It about time you stop listening to the internet and do your job. You got watches and so What? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
madmitch Posted February 5, 2018 Share Posted February 5, 2018 The headline should read "Prawit's watch to continue". Sadly the pun would be lost in the Thai language. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greeneking Posted February 5, 2018 Share Posted February 5, 2018 Looking forward to the photos of him in uniform, camouflage paint, heavy backpack, rifle and ammunition belts patrolling the borders keeping those imminent threats from Laos, Cambodia, Burma and Malaysia at bay. When he meets his colleagues can they keep a straight face? He, and the other selfless 'good' people are the threat to peace. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TallGuyJohninBKK Posted February 5, 2018 Share Posted February 5, 2018 Well, the man makes a good point in regards to national security. After all, someone has to stick around to guard his expensive watches collection. Can't just leave them around unguarded. Requires a Defense Minister, at least!!!

Phuket Man Posted February 5, 2018 Share Posted February 5, 2018 He makes a lot of sense. Since he has been in power there has been no fighting or rocket attacks or bombs aimed at children or red shirt road blocks. He is doing a good job. Hopefully he will stay around for years to come.

No bombs. Apart from the ones in Bangkok, Hua Hin, Samui, Surat Thani and the ongoing civil strife in the deep south. Yeah, great job. A real record to be proud of...
