CARE group formally debuted to provide an alternative for Thai people

 

 

A brand-new activist group, which aims to bring together all sectors of Thai society to help move Thailand forward and through the most critical period it has ever encountered, formally debuted on Wednesday.

 

Founders of the group, named CARE, include former senior members of the now defunct Thai Rak Thai party, namely Dr. Surapong Suebwonglee and Dr. Prommin Lertsuridet, advisor to Pheu Thai party leader Poomtham Wechayachai, outspoken journalist and TV commentator Ms. Lakkhana “Khaek” Panvichai, well-known architect Duangrith Bunnag and economist Supavuth Saichua.

 

The group’s manifesto, which was read at the press launch event by Ms. Lakkhana, says that mankind is confronting a unique challenge with the COVID-19 pandemic, which will have long-term and painful impacts on people the world over, including Thailand, which currently appears to be at its lowest and weakest point in almost all aspects.

Oooh, I feel all warm and fuzzy inside; interesting they gave it an English language name.

What sort of music do they play?

Yeah, the shortcomings of not being a native speaker.

When I read the headline it gave me the feeling of a group looking after retirees.

It didn't help that the in the photo, five out of the seven look like they could be retired too.

 

It honestly gives me this impression:

'Care group - when your family just don't have time for you any more.'
