JAG Posted October 5, 2018 Share Posted October 5, 2018 (edited) Of course, lots of ideas will be floated, decisions made and plans formulated to implement these decisions at these international meetings. It really would make little sense to have a change of prime minister within 6 months of this all this work being done so... All the foreign countries will understand, Edited October 5, 2018 by JAG 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's just not fair go. Particularly as both he and Toad Boy have issued grovelling apologies to the Chinese. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ossy Posted October 5, 2018 Share Posted October 5, 2018 I want like hell to write a strongly derogatory post re Prayuth's self-perceived ability to fulfil the combined role of envoy and strategic partnership development guru, but I just don't know where to start. I'd love to be a fly on the wall at these meetings, so I could see the other attendees responses to Prayuth's enlightened contributions to these key ASEAN events. The mind boggles. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes with the top man away from his desk here, the Pigeon issue will become a very thorny problem indeed. A National crisis such as a few Pigeons needs the big man to preside over the solution to this most nasty of issues, and a final solution needs to be found ASAP 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Media1 Posted October 5, 2018 Share Posted October 5, 2018 Is he taking Prawit to the meetings. Because l believe Prawit has special powers returning watches to dead friends. Prayut will need him to materialize the meeting associates Hitler and Bin Laden. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yet, business as usual. They're not ashamed by displaying their sociopathic characters, as they all belong to the same club. All disguised as benign and benevolent leaders for the people. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Always good to send a non-elected leader to represent a county as a leader of the people. Right? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
