Primo D Posted April 26, 2021 Share Posted April 26, 2021 Do you honestly believe that any "minister" will tell you what he really thinks or believes. No, he will say what he has been told to say. This is usually referred to as "the party line". Unfortunately, this sort of thing is not unique to Thailand. Reference the Trump administration. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why didn't the boss replace him? Expecting Thai politicians to do the honourable thing is a fantasy, it won't happen and this mess will rumble on. It's still hard to believe that a year ago they did everything right and just about eradicated the virus, while now they're doing everything wrong and allowing infections to spread around the country like wildfire. What on earth changed to make them go from being so cautious to becoming downright careless? The chance to pocket a ...load of money from the beginning of the pandemic , money supposed to be for the vaccines wich they are now in the back of the line for. Everything is under controle . They should have ordered the vaccines from that moment . Then now they would be the #1 in vaccinations as well and would have been a real example not a fake one as they are now . Then they would really have everything under controle . But hey , if my aunty would have a ..... she would be my uncle . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Misterwhisper Posted April 26, 2021 Share Posted April 26, 2021 (edited) 1 hour ago, Mr Meeseeks said: Ministerial positions are for the heads of the most powerful clans in the country. Read the Secret Siam article on BJT for clarification. Competence and ability have absolutely nothing to do with selection. "Do you know who I am?" You don't say! ???????? Perhaps I should've added brackets with "sarcasm alert" to my post just to make it more obvious to some people who take everything literal instead of reading between the lines. In other words: Your "in-depth" clarification was just as superfluous as Mr. Anutin apparently is (according to the undersigned of the online petition).

He is the worst of all those clowns up there and I truly hate him for all the bs/hate-speech coming out of his mouth! He would have already been substituted many times in any civilized country, but after all this is TH, where power/connections/money count more than expertise. That's the problem. Prayut cannot fire him, even if he wanted to, as he was part of Newin's deal with the junta for his party to to support the goverment. Anutin used his inherited wealth and business to buy his way into gangster politics and he is now nominal leader of Newin's party. The health ministry was obviously his own choice but his interests were making money out of marijuana businesses and lucrative side activities in healthcare, not administering healthcare for the benefit of the people for which he has no aptitude and apparently no interest. Voluntarily resigning to show responsibilities for one's incompetence or malfeasance is something I have never seen in Thai public life. Since it is a money business, this is not surprising. The fragmented political system in the 90s with numerous shaky coalitions made ministers more vulnerable as they could be out of power in a heartbeat with their mortal enemies gaining control over the records of their ministry. But that cannot happen under this constitution. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
