Popular Post spidermike007 Posted May 17, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted May 17, 2019 PM Prayuth to the World Bank. How can I run the economy? Why is the tourism sector falling? Why are the common people of Thailand faring so poorly? Can you please teach us how to run a country? 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yellowboat Posted May 18, 2019 Share Posted May 18, 2019 Wonderfully non substantive and non specific. The UN people can at least work on their tan while there. They will only be making the super rich that much richer and anything for the average Thai will be ignored with a gaping yawn from the military government. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eric Loh Posted May 18, 2019 Share Posted May 18, 2019 Did the World Bank give him their study on the Political Violence and Economic Growth. Empirical study that coups are economic disasters. Not that Prayut understand much and he is only a puppet. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's all Thailand cares about anyway. He does LOOK like a genuine PM. Edited May 18, 2019 by Fex Bluse 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
