Thailand’s current Prime Minister, General Prayut Chan-o-cha, said today that he would do everything “better and better” if he is elected to continue as Prime Minister.

 

For the time being, however, he said that he would not speculate, adding that parliament is yet to open and it will also depend on the members of parliament whether he would be reappointed.

 

He said he didn’t understand why critics did not look at the achievements of his government over the past five years, citing all the infrastructure mega projects launched by his government, the improvement of the digital economy and trade prospects.

Interesting that this article is coming to Thai Visa now. What achievements? Hastily approved infrastructure projects that allow some of his cronies to salt millions of baht overseas? Digital economy improvements that include Chinese-style monitoring and censorship/prosecution potential? Without Section 44 this guy is a lame duck!

Who exactly appoints him?  The parliament/Senators that are mostly his own appointees?

Stand down field Marshall,just clean up the air !

he'd  have a  job doing worse  however i suspect with a  little  less  effort he could even manage  that.

They say that people get the politicians that they deserve, unfortunately in Thailand, if your a leading politician and too nice and too timid, you will be eaten alive, Thailand had number of PM who were nice and honest people, they didn't last longer than one term and even less,

as far as Prayut goes, he's not the worst Thailand had, and if he can do better, well, will wait and see... 

He hasn't exactly set the bar too high in an effort to achieve this promise. (I thought the election was over, so why the promises?)

Politicians and promises - pfah! I'm STILL waiting for the soap operas he promised to write.

Said another way

 

"You are stuck with me no matter what, but don't worry (or complain) because I will do better.

 

I am so humble. Do you like me more now?"

That quote reminds me of Inspector Clousuea's boss - Chief Inspector Dreyfus, when he was in the mental hospital: "Every day in every way I'm getting better and better."

The PM promises to do better if reappointed.... well that should not be difficult.

He has done nothing but threaten/ bully people for the past 5 years, so anything he does should be an improvement.

Trust me!

He forgot to extend his fingers.

Yes, I can feel it, life is getting "better and better" everyday. Can anyone else feel it? ????

What a joke. By looking at this anyone would think politics in Thailand is actually a competition of who has the best policies and the best interests of the people at heart!

I think he will get better......at filling his bank account.

I say the same words every new year; still havent lost weight. LOL.

Trade if for the elite and they love him.  The average Thai voted for him because a segment of the population wants peace at any price and are afraid.  The man has achieved fear and achieved avoiding debate more than anything else.  Hardly accomplishments worth mentioning.

What is mean:  "if he is reappointed"?

It was already clear before the elections that the general will be the next PM!

"promises to do better and better" says the man who promised he wouldn't run for PM office. 

So much for someone who was categorically not interested in staying in politics 

If?????

What he means is ;

 

Better and better at doing worse and worse.

But his fans love him so much, they all pleaded with him to change his mind.

(Anyone fancy a bottle of what I've been drinking?)
