webfact Posted February 5, 2019 Share Posted February 5, 2019 Thailand proposes third country option for jailed Bahraini footballer Australia and Bahrain should hold talks to resolve the case of jailed Bahraini footballer Hakeem al-Arabi by having him sent to a third country instead of extraditing him to Bahrain to face imprisonment or by sending him to his requested country of asylum, Australia, said Thai Foreign Minister Don Paramudvinai today. He said he had already proposed this option to both Bahrain and Australia, noting that it would be less complicated and would help resolve the problem, adding that Thailand was willing to help facilitate the talks. Mr. Don said that it was Australian Interpol which first alerted their Thai counterparts of Bahrain’s arrest warrant against al-Arabi as Bahraini authorities were asking Thai authorities to have the footballer apprehended.

They already look like idiots, prolonging this will only make them appear even more stupid, and on a world stage. Best course of action is to end this as soon as possible, before the whole world is witness to their idiocy. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although, coming from Australia and being so frustrated dealing with idiots in different government departments, I can't help but feel Australia buggered up a bit. Problem is people who do poor work keep their jobs. We need more Trumps in the world. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Australia sometimes just outsources important tasks to overseas call centre and HR companies. And then says do whatever stupid stuff you want as long as it's not bothering management cause we're off playing golf. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
