webfact Posted October 22, 2018 Share Posted October 22, 2018 PM wields spade for National Tree Care Day By The Nation Prime Minister General Prayut Chan-o-cha and members of his Cabinet planted nine Siamese rosewood saplings in the Government House compound in Bangkok on Monday to mark National Tree Care Day. In a buoyant mood and humming the melody to Thongchai “Bird” McIntyre’s popular song “Dton Mai Kaung Por” (Father’s Tree), the premier instructed state officials to set a good example for the public by nurturing trees. The day was designated in 1990 to raise public awareness about the importance of forests. October 21 was chosen because it was the birthday of Her Royal Highness the late Princess Mother Srinagarindra, mother of His Majesty King Bhumibol Adulyadej.

yellowboat Posted October 22, 2018 Share Posted October 22, 2018 Finally doing something somewhat constructive after the pet registration debacle. Trees are important, but elephants are better at planting trees than humans or coup leaders. A tree strategy goes hand in hand with animals, clean air and clean water. Without a comprehensive and inclusive plan, it is like wasting four good years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
unamazedloso Posted October 22, 2018 Share Posted October 22, 2018 Load of bs. Logging trucks arent stopping. Still burning forests where i am, making charcoal illegally and selling illegally. My wife is the only person here growing plants. All others are stolen or burnt or sprayed with whopping loads of chemicals that by the looks of the gov veiw on such only affect people. Not thais! Well, the pm should pay my street a vist. Just a couple houses and someone dropping weekly and they are so brain dead from all the smoke pollution, chemicals and brainwashing that they have no fn idea and cant even comprehend the scope of human rights abuses that these people themselves are attributing to. Great way to care for the enviroment you douche by doing nothing at all that matters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mind you, it's going to need the PM's superhuman powers he possesses, for him to dig the entire length and lay the tracks himself too, to get it completed in no more than three years: "Arkhom said a total of 13 construction contracts for the Bangkok-Nakhon Ratchasima route would be open for bidding in 2018 so that construction could be completed and the system become operational in 2021."

They may start tendering at that time but the political situation is too fluid for anyone to sign a contract. Most of Malaysia's planned infrastructure project are under review or canceled after a change of PM .The East coast line from China down for to Johor and on to Singapore has been cancelled Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
