PM conducts first ever personal live stream during Loy Krathong

 

 

BANGKOK, 23rd November 2018 (NNT) – The Prime Minister upheld his administration’s one family one krathong concept while celebrating Loy Krathong at Khlong Padung Krung Kasemyesterday (November 22), highlighting the event by engaging in his first ever personal Facebook Live stream. 

Prime Minister Gen Prayut Chan-ocha led his wife and ministers of his Cabinet in observing the Thai tradition of Loy Krathong. Each Cabinet member floated a single krathong on behalf of their family in line with a concept encouraged by the state to reduce the environmental impact of the practice. The Prime Minister’s krathong was made from biodegradable agave and pineapple fibers. 

The PM revealed that he wished for peace across the nation while posing for photos with youths and tourists gathered for the event. 

The premier then engaged in his first ever personal Facebook Live stream via his own Facebook page “Prayut Chan-o-cha”. The stream saw Gen Prayut speaking with citizens taking part in the Loy Krathong festival. Over 80,000 people viewed the stream, many wishing the PM safety in their comments and urging him to remedy issues affecting the nation.

So tell me, baboon, how come our high and mighty, 'one family-one Krathong' PM didn't bother with all this nonsense in 2014, 2015, 2016 and 2017? . . . biodegradable agave and pineapple fibers very expensive, then, he'd tell us.

Ahem. Ain’t you the issue affecting the nation? 

Is this news, that someone finally figured out how to live stream something?

Whatever has happened to the majority of negative response that our worshipful's first FB session generated? Or does 'we' not do negative on LK day?

At least he made the float family sized to compensate for the lack of a Navy flotilla.

without freedom ?

A troll post containing a disallowed reference to the PM has been removed. 

What a joke. So phony, so chameleon, so much audacity to even try this PR bogus move. I wish I could find a kind word, but it is impossible to do. 

Bugger, missed it.

Anyone have a link to it.

Please.

Cannot wait to view it.

His definition of freedom is a little (a lot) different than the rest of the world and focuses only on one person. But if he campaigns really hard while others are prohibited he figures he can make it work.
