Somkid will be one of Palang Pracharat’s prime ministerial candidates

 

 

Deputy Prime Minister Somkid Jatusripitak will be one of the three prime ministerial candidates of the pro-Prayut Palang Pracharat Party, party leader Uttama Savanayana said Thursday.

 

But Uttama stopped short of saying whether Prime Minister Gen Prayut Chan-o-cha will also be a candidate.  He insisted that no formal approach has been made with Prayut so far.

 

Uttama was speaking to the media at a function to unveil the party’s policies which he said would be largely a continuation of what the present Prayut government is doing in terms of helping the poor and implementing large-scale infrastructure projects.

All depends on your definition of "formal" ????

Somkid . . . the best of a bad bunch is the best that can be said of this poor victim of circumstance. I think he'd make quite a good next door neighbour, though . . . strange things, 'perspectives', aren't they?

how to approach Prayut:

First you have to master Kung <deleted> and Brazilian Jiu Jitsu

After building up your confidence, approach downwind, and stealthily tippy-toe into his august presence

Very important: No sudden moves! Just bow until he notices you.

Good luck.
