I feel that is a gross underestimate, considering those who have been appointed to other positions of power. Is he paying rent on the army accommodation? If so how much, and what does the residence consist of? Mansions, rent free 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They should be living in tents, if their contributions to the country's well being was the deciding factor ! Yes significant contributions using the military to overthrow an elected government hand picking a majority of the senators from your military cronies to ensure that you get picked for pm while claiming to have a free and democratic election aquire numerous expensive watches and your military run court rule its OK.

I hated Taksin and his sister BUT I have seen enough to make me HATE this guy more.... 10 - 20 times more.....

Popular Post spidermike007 Posted December 1, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted December 1, 2020 Graceful? Dignity. Righteous. Honest. Kind hearted. Doing the right thing for his nation. Competent. Smart. Helping the common Thai or expat. These are words and concepts that could never be associated with Prayuth. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chainarong Posted December 1, 2020 Share Posted December 1, 2020 As Prayut is nothing more than a small T for totalitarian style government , one can't see how he'd even care what the courts said. Put it this way he'd have an excuse, maybe reinvent rule 44. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haven't you noticed that???? The PM lives free in an Army house. Is that really the worst thing which comes to your mind? How much would it cost to rent such a house? Maybe 100,000 THB per month, worst case? Now compare that to the billions which other politicians scammed with the rice scam and other shady deals. The house is, to say it with a bankers words, "peanuts". 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also wish for competent honest politicians who work for all the people. It sounds great, but how realistic is that? Which PM in the last decades was better than Prayut? I think Abhisit was better, but other names don't come to my mind. Thailand has in a way a similar problem like many countries i.e. like the UK, USA and others: There are only not so good choices. People vote for the 2nd worst choice - which is still better than the worst case. And Thai voters repeatedly vote for the same corrupt politicians and/or their family members. And then Thais are surprised that they have a corrupt government. Amazing Thailand. 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thaksin: going on an trip out of the country and he never returned to go to jail Yingluck: illegally left the country and never returned to go to jail. Politicians from that party should shut up about graceful behavior from anybody else. Always good to get a "but, but, but Thaksin post.

teacherclaire Posted December 2, 2020 Share Posted December 2, 2020 “However, if Prayut decides to step down before December 2 as demanded by pro-democracy protesters, then it would be the most graceful exit for him,” Today is the day to go, senor.

At least Thaksin and his Luck of Ying helped the farmers out, but that seems to have stopped. Abhisit is also my favorite. But it seems most farmers up country don't like intelligent educated professionals. Thaksin and his little sister helped lots of people in the rice industry with their scam. Sure, the farmers also got a little more, but a lot less than all those middlemen. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
