BestB Posted April 18, 2020 Share Posted April 18, 2020 Truth is no one knows what to do, Government is out of money , economy falling apart , tourism dead. No one ever lived through something like this, but at least he is wise enough to ask for help from people with business sense instead of asking generals. if figures are true or at least honest, thailand has not done so badly, just where to go from here is the question 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was just curious as to the source of Yadon Toploy's claim that 28 million Thais claimed Government support. https://www.thairath.co.th/news/business/1808249 In the first 2 days 19.8 million applied so 28 million seems likely to me..these are people applying/claiming support..not those who are actually receiving it which for now is something like 1.8 million Quote เมื่อวันที่ 30 มี.ค.63 นายอุตตม สาวนายน รมว.คลัง เปิดเผยว่า จากการเปิดรับลงทะเบียนตามมาตรการเยียวยา 5,000 บาท (3 เดือน) ที่เว็บไซต์ www.เราไม่ทิ้งกัน.com ตั้งแต่วันเสาร์ที่ 28 มีนาคม 2563 มีผู้มาลงทะเบียนแล้วรวม 19.8 ล้านราย (ข้อมูล ณ เวลา 14.00 น.) ซึ่งในภาพรวมหลังการปรับเพิ่มสมรรถนะของระบบการลงทะเบียนแล้ว การลงทะเบียนดำเนินไปได้อย่างราบรื่น 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ronaldo0 Posted April 18, 2020 Share Posted April 18, 2020 Seems a bit like monkey see monkey do by just copying ideas from other major countries. As for the shambles of paying the people their 5000 bht , when is it happening as I know people who were approved and still waiting on being paid . Although I’m sure he is trying to force them back to work so as they don’t get paid . 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cardinalblue Posted April 18, 2020 Share Posted April 18, 2020 I remember a few years back that Gates was on an Asian tour asking for the wealthy to give back to their societies...it is quite well known that the Asian rich gives very little to their respective cultures hence the severe inequities between rich and poor... asking him to give 10 million baht? That is like $350,000 - mediocre US professional sport players do that.... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Nanaplaza666 Posted April 18, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted April 18, 2020 By asking the richest people to help, at the end it will be justified for these richest people to keep on corrupting in a legal way because then they will say we helped in a time of need so now we can get some back . The richest people of thailand are still making money in this time of need . People who do not have any money left have to sell what they have for well under the price , and who do you think will buy it and later on make money from it AGAIN . 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jacinda Ardern said it was important the government’s most highly paid politicians show “leadership and solidarity” with workers on the frontline and those who had lost their livelihoods. Ardern, government ministers and public service chief executives will take the cut for six months, effective immediately. 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are all part of the same gang. And the gang have worked this one out. They are the people who drive this government. They will know the level of dissatisfaction, hopelessness and even desperation amongst the millions who have abruptly lost everything. They will wish to be seen as the benefactors - perhaps the saviours of the poor. It is ultimately a strategy to ensure they remain in their place. They will get anything they "give" back.

Popular Post Ackybang Posted April 18, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted April 18, 2020 Well, I for one, and I'm sure I'm not alone in saying this, feel sorry for the old chap - he's always getting it in the neck regardless of his selfless and tireless efforts to enrich the lives of all society - by proxy of course. One would like to believe his master's will deem it fit to consider having it washed firstly, on an individual basis of course, before proffering. Would hate to think of him having to get down and dirty in such an impeccably ironed uniform. Maybe his advisors should recommend wearing the clothes of the common man for such an event, or perhaps kneeling in their flip flops for a day - as is usual. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
