Prayut needs his support to have a clear majority.

Thank you I always wondered why such a Buffoon was allowed to have a voice.

So much for leadership by example. He's a homeboy, but his minions go out and flout the rules they are so fond of spouting about. Irony of ironies.

I wonder if the people will remember when the next elections come around, if they ever do.

No biggie - Just gerrymander, crush debate and outlaw the opposition.

Why does he deserve any criticism at all? The great and benevolent leader has already insured happiness. Now, he is showing the vast purity of his heart, by allowing absolute freedom of the press.

 

He is lowering unemployment. He is growing the economy. He is doing everything in his power to open the country up again, and increase tourism revenue. He is increasing exports. He is abiding by all of the terms of the ASEAN charters he signed, and allowing the duty free importation of all beer throughout ASEAN. Bintang, Beer Lao, Bia Saigon, Bia Huda, Bia Ha Noi, Dagon, Saigon Special, 333, are on all of the supermarket shelves as we speak. We are not longer subject to the very low quality local beers, as promised in the recent ASEAN charter, that Thailand agreed to and signed. 

 

He is making visa policy easy, simple and streamlined, and all tourists are very happy about that. He is working on the attitudes of government workers, and making sure they are open and friendly to both tourists, and ex-pats.

 

He is improving traffic and public safety. He is working day and night to eliminate the air quality issues, that have become a catastrophe for the nation. Corruption is being eliminated, and innocent fall guys are no longer getting charged for murder, and being put to death.

 

The taxi mafia on Samui and Phuket have been eliminated, and tourists can now get a taxi at a fair price. They are also adding multiple options of cheap public transportation on the Southern islands.   

 

Life is better for all now that this great man is demonstrating his genius and vision on a daily basis. All he cares about is the welfare of his own people, and the happiness of both tourists and the ex-pat community. He contemplates this day and night.

Hey Mike. Have you been arrested or something?

Ranting after the meeting at Government House the PM - Big Too as he is known in Thailand - also threatened legal action was a possibility for using the term "Thai Khu Faa Club" - a bit like saying a Mile High Club!

 

So that's why they all get wings.

 

 

And Thong Lor is what, 3 meters above sea level.

 

Aim low.

But he is not a politician, he's a soldier, with a soldiers mentality, a general. Politicians get elected by the people, soldiers don't.

Well he is a soldier mentality perhaps but the Prime Minister is a political position.

But that doesn't make him a politician, the only thing he has in common with politicians is his lies.

In fact he is worse than a politician, if a politician says there won't be an election, then there won't. This soldier said there will not be a coup, there was, and he led it.

You can become a politician after being a soldier.  Just like you can become a Minister after being jailed for drug dealing.

The media needs to blast away with all they've got. The health experts and provinces are already going rogue.  Good for them.

He encapsulates the people of Thailand perfectly and his actions are in line with what is expected of a leader here.

He's a general in the same way as I am considered a brain surgeon after taking paracetamol for a headache.

You take legal action because someone uses a certain phrase. He's not the bright one that's obvious. 

[Nickelbeer]

I think I could have seen this coming.  You do not write news articles which make the military look bad, in a country that is RUN by the military. Do members of the press consider these things when they report? Freedom of the press does NOT include political issues or political personalities.

I've got no use for politicians or lawyers in Thailand, or any other country. All a bunch of snakes in the grass. Rant over.......

There are nearly 2,000 generals in the Thai army. They are not what one would describe as highly accomplished, nor appointed based on much merit. It is not a position of great power, though undoubtedly their underlings pretend otherwise. 

 

The Thai military has announced a major overhaul of its forces aimed at cutting the number of high-ranking officers.

Thailand has a notoriously top-heavy military, with about 1,700 generals – or one general for every 212 soldiers, according to Professor Paul Chambers, a military affairs expert at Naresuan University.

By comparison, the U.S. Army has 315 General Officers. Generals (O-7 to O-10) who comprise 0.06% of the Army. There is 1 General for every 1600 Soldiers.
