'Delicious food' may have drawn terrorists to Thai hotel: Prawit

By Jintamas Saksornchai, Staff Reporter

 

Gen. Prawit Wongsuwan talks to reporters Wednesday at the Defense Ministry.

 

BANGKOK — Thailand’s deputy junta leader said Wednesday it was “good enough” that no Thais were killed in an apparent terror attack on a Thai-owned hotel complex in Kenya that left at least 14 people dead.

 

Addressing reporters during a daily morning briefing, Gen. Prawit Wongsuwan’s flippant comment came as the Dusit Thani Co. this afternoon announced its Thai employees were all safe after Tuesday’s heavy assault on Nairobi’s DusitD2 hotel, which it will close temporarily.

Good grief.

 

Unbelievable.

 

 

 

[BigBadGeordie]

Therefore one would assume that the food in the Deep South is superior to that of the rest of Thailand.

I can see a marketing opportunity opening up here, come on TAT get with the plan.

[observer90210]

Or perhaps those nasty chaps dropped in as the hotel had a good Rolex service center ? ????

Come on...go easy on the Squealer. It's just that 'food' is his primary reason for going anywhere and he naturally figured the terrorists might be a lot like him,

No need for him to "watch" his weight?

[rkidlad]

Thailand’s number 2, everybody......

[djayz]

Had any died in the attack, he could have used their names later to claim they left him their watches.

He certainly is a number 2.

[sjaak327]

Unbelieveable that such a simpleton could ever reach it to general, but I guess being a general in the Thai army means nothing.

I thought within the Thai army, every man and his dog was a general, there's so many.

[Lacessit]

I don't know what they teach the Thai military; however, I'm reasonably sure logic isn't on the curriculum.

How well characterised.  I applaud you.  Squealer is arguably the worst of the lot.

[colinneil]

Well you just gotta laugh Every time Ole Fatty opens his mouth more sh??e comes out.

Can anybody remember the last time he spoke anything but sh++e?

No, he is number 1, Prayuths master. He's the brains  the mastermind. 

[Gillyflower]

No mention of the 14 people who did die. Glad I don't live in Nairobie.

Thank God for that. I always thought it was Chanocha. Knowing it was the monkey and not the organ grinder comes as something of a relief.

 

And explanation.

I read that too. He was not chosen as prime minister due to the fact he is not liked by the public. He apparently holds much of the power though.

[baboon]

Didn't he even exercise his brain enough to condemn this atrocity in the most withering of terms before admitting what he really thought? You know, something like 'Thailand stands shoulder to shoulder with the International Community against this deplorable incident and will stop at nothing to ensure the guilty are brought to justice.'

But no. Just open your mouth and see what comes out. What a knob, by anyone's book...

[mark131v]

At least some countries are doing their bit rather than just more sound bites from this lot of abject cretins...

What a fitting and apt description of the present rulers ???? 

Truly sums them up in two words!

[Creasy]

He really is a bumbling, stumbling fool who suffers from a severe case of Foot in Mouth disease.

[jonclark]

Let me guess in prawits rather vacant brain.....

 

The whole tragic event unfurled when the terrorists say down for a delicious lunch and called the waiter over to complain about a fly in their soup

 

It went downhill from there.

[mikebell]

What a sad commentary on the state of Thai Government; Thai Army; Thai Education system; that this person can rise to being the 2nd most influential person in the country.

The word logic is not in the Thai vocabulary 

[Enki]

Well, it is just a bit more than ten years ago that Japanese news concluded every accident/catastrophe with "We are happy to announce that no Japanese was killed in this incident" ... took decades to explain that this sounds extremely racist/impolite to westerners (or non Japanese in general).

 

No idea why you are all upset.

 

Unlike in other countries, here a PM is not "chosen" for his media presence.

[Colabamumbai]

Resign now you fool.
