He's working on a song to go with the book.

That pic' .. Is it some sort of Masonic greeting Chair P' is attempting on the Prof' .. Or is he just partially sighted .. 

 

Took another look. Seems that he's trying to slip his hand into Shwab's pocket, looking for his wallet. The guy behind is already a victim as he's looking bemused whilst rummaging through his pockets thinking, "Where the hell's my wallet gone".

am amazed a man that I have never heard speaking, nor understand English (he uses an interpreter as seen on TV) can read 2 books written in English within a few hours and then give comment on these books.

Fourth industrial revolution... Thailand 4.0... Four legs good, two legs bad. Seeing a pattern here...

What about Aladdin and the Wonderlamp as a start? 

Why not, as he couldn't possibly 'recommend': 'Ali Baba and the 40 thieves', could he, as in that story the hero, Ali Baba, is NOT the chief of the thieves...

Yes, or My Coup Ca Choo, as posted in another thread recently.

There's a long waiting list for the most coveted cabinet positions. 

The books must have plenty of lovely pictures.

Next up? My Pet Goat.

This follows on from "Five go Mad in Government House!" and "Five have a Naughty Time in Pattaya."

A long way to go- the second industrial revolution, was driven by electricity and involved expansion of industries and mass production as well as technological advances- not sure Thailand can wear that hat as yet .

Any second thoughts about recommending books with the word revolution in the title?

He should read about the critical importance of education on the future of a country-step one

Surely he hasn't got time for leisure reading

Especially with the 2 positions he has now PM and Defence Minister

Wasn't Prayut suggesting to all the RTP to watch a Tom Selleck TV police series to improve their policing skills several years ago?? 

 

The comedy of this man.. Maybe reading Abbott and Costello (P & P the watchman) would be more suitable for the super duo.. If either could fluently read English that is.. 

Or The 3 Stoogers.. But who would be no 3??

Gatherings of five or more are prohibited due to protect national security, and the famous five are currently undergoing attitude adjustment.

 

Four legs good...

And according to what I've seen elsewhere 'it rambles on...'

Therefore suits H E PM. 

I am kinda interested in what Thai high school and university students are assigned to read. Do they get exposed to any of the great classics, that transcend cultures, translated into Thai. I'm thinking of books that we probably were all assigned, such as Gulliver's Travels, one of the greatest political satires ever produced, or Shakespeare. What types of literature are they exposed to? Anyone know (seriously)?

Shouldn't he adapt to the first industrial revolution prior to taking huge steps to the 4th.

 

He probably thinks it a military coup or rolling in the tanks against a group of factory workers.

 

 Please  refresh my memory ,  when was the first industrial revolution.

   Would it have been in Britain .
