BANGKOK — Obviously incensed by questions whether oft-delayed elections would happen as planned in February, the deputy junta leader said he would answer such questions with his fists.

 

Gen. Prawit Wongsuwan, who is also defense minister and deputy prime minister, responded incredulously on Thursday to reporters’ questions about whether the junta would delay the elections now slated for Feb. 24. The 73-year-old retired general offered a noncommittal response that elections would happen according to the junta’s “roadmap” before responding angrily.

Think of the criticism that Trump receives and imagine Prawit and Co being treated the same way.

And then spend your life in military prison and getting abused by military officers in the army detention centers until you're dead ....

Real tough guy:

 

“If you’re going to talk like this, why don’t we just have a fistfight?” Prawit said, pointing his finger at the female reporter who posed the question.

 

Guess he'd get 4 of his mates to help him out as well.

 

Truly repulsive.

I would quite like to take him up on that offer if the reporter is otherwise engaged...☺

Mind you, it is no wonder he is a bit grumpy given the epic combover failure in that video...

[colinneil]

You just gotta laugh at him, all these lot know is threats of violence.

No way would it be his fists, he couldnt lift them as his fancy expensive ( borrowed ) watch would hinder him.

Yes - It's a shame there is not a 'Makes me wanna puke' button along with the like, sad, confused, haha, and thanks buttons.

Must be how he became a general. Punching women in the mouth.

The cock and bull toad that is hardly able to make two steps without being supported now obviously became megalomaniac ...

[Eric Loh]

I would love to see fat out of shape old man throw a fist without hurting himself. 

[anterian]

I suspect most reporters, even female ones, could take him on with one hand behind their back. 

[Thailand]

It's sad and tragic that this old fool could even be pm some day.

The fact that he challenged a woman to a fistfight tells me everything that I need to know (and already knew).

Uuuuuuuuuuh, what a tough guy, asking a lady for a fistfight!

Thai- manners at display here, superior culture at work!

Also: he must be a clever man, if his answer is an offer of violence!

I guess, it was his attempt at a funny rebuttal, which also shows, that he is not funny!

 

[Small Joke]

You better WATCH out, young lady! 

Thats an expensive 'knuckle duster' loong is wearing.

What might one expect from hard line embedded militarists. 

This is who they are and what they know. 

 

 

All classy and siwilai.

She was a bit slow on the uptake, she should have called out toadies bluff there and then - what a reaction that would have been....

In any civilised Government this toad would have been ousted long ago....or more likely never set foot near political office. 

 

Let's hope he continues to make an arse of himself right up until the election.

It's less a government and more of a long-standing occupation, yes? 

[Media1]

These characters are typical of what Thais dont want. So the reporter answered the question for all..There will be another delay. By the dinasour. Extinction is avoidable
