Yep and these bunch of mumbo jumbo chanting hypocrites will will do sweet F all to ensuring internationally recognisable safety standards are implemented and  enforced whilst they continue getting their brown envelopes to ignore already laid down operating criteria.

"The Minister of Tourism and Sports Weerasak Kowsurat is attending tonight’s ceremonies."

 

Can anyone else see the irony in the "Minister of Tourism and Sports" attending this?

Not only is it where 49 people have died in the name of tourism, but is that a sport too?

It’s a bit late for prayers. Try praying that these things don’t happen in the first place. Oh, wait.....

Why pray?  Do they think they can pray for the people to rise from the dead?

 

The time and money wasted on this misguided gesture should be used to prevent future tragic accidents like this.  But, easier and nicer to pray and actually do nothing.

 

 

What is the significance of the dolls houses in the guilt laden damage limiting drowning of tourists ceremony ?
