Popular Post YetAnother Posted June 23, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted June 23, 2018 4 minutes ago, rooster59 said: “Thailand’s Leader Promised to Restore Democracy. Instead, He’s Tightening His Grip” sums it up nicely; might need mention the crap that this leader says; recall when he seemingly honestly questioned why thai people want democracy ? that is how he truly thinks: 'i know what is best for the thai people, not them' 15 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tracker1 Posted June 23, 2018 Share Posted June 23, 2018 This will build his ego up seeing himself on the cover ! All the more reason for him to remain the one man band the others are only there to nod and agree with him ! 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

coulson Posted June 23, 2018 Share Posted June 23, 2018 Wonder what his reaction will be. Despite having a massive ego boost for making the cover of time, the calling out of his autocratic reign will surely put more pressure on him to come clean on his intentions, and deal with the consequences. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's the first thing that came to mind when I read the word Dictator with a picture of Prayut.

Popular Post PREM-R Posted June 23, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted June 23, 2018 This could really blow his mind...... Being on the cover of Time magazine..... really cool..... being referred to as a 'Dictator'.... not cool.... To ban publication in Thailand or not to ban publication in Thailand...... that is the question. 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

canuckamuck Posted June 23, 2018 Share Posted June 23, 2018 The English literacy rate is incredibly low. He's not going to worry about this a bit. He will probably write another song about being on the cover. That's what Dr. hook would have done. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it will be the rankest hypocrisy if we are not allowed now to use that forbidden D word. If it is so objectionable, why are Thaivisa putting up a big picture with that word on it in reference to Prayut? You can't run with the hare and hunt with the hounds.
