Well at least we know how much longer he's going to try and stay in power. 20 years...sh-t.

 

Can Thailand take another 20 years of this incompetent, self serving a-hole?

Give him a break. He said in 20 years, he has only been in office for 7 years and so far has achieved nothing.

So therefore he has another 13 years to continue this roaring  this success rate.

But it has turned into a nationwide fraud of epic proportions - some media has called it "Let's Embezzle Together".

Thai entrepreneurialism at it's best.

Gotta love a country where corruption runs from the top to the bottom.  Wonder if this is a class taught yearly staring in elementary school.

Bath salts would be more like it so you could have visions or delusions of grandeur that the cheats have.

Haha ... "Let's Embezzle Together" pretty much sums it up here very well.

Of course there is. In my primary school classes, while I'm trying to give a lesson, I've frequently had to grab pairs of notebooks students try to conceal in their laps. The notebook on top is theirs, that they're furiously trying to fill in, the one on the bottom is someone else's. They're copying homework due for their next class. These are like 11-12 year olds.

 

Despite my efforts to thwart them, many other teachers just don't care. They start like this in primary, then continue on like this through the rest of school, thus learning a lesson integral to their culture, seeing what they can get away with.
