Well don't they all claim to have done something and then it turns out they have done nothing? Reality is something that appears to evade this government. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
faraday Posted April 30, 2021 Share Posted April 30, 2021 From the OP link: “The masks were donated by Charoen Pokphand Foods Co Ltd" It makes it seem as if Kh Chuan was the benefactor. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

colinneil Posted May 1, 2021 Share Posted May 1, 2021 You must have misread the OP, as it clearly states, to donate 10.000 items of P.P.E. no mention of C.P. unless you read the link. 15 minutes ago, Venom said: No, the above makes it very clear they were from CP Chicken group. Yet you say the above makes it very clear, not what i read. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From the "link in the post" Quote: “The masks were donated by Charoen Pokphand Foods Co Ltd to the Foundation for Education and Social Development, of which I serve as president,” Mr Chuan explained. “I was told that people in some areas do not have face masks to wear, so I want them to have them and wear them when they go outside in order to protect themselves from COVID-19,” he said. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thaivisa's rule on posting links from other publications is fairly clear and does not make allowances for editing nor does it always give what might be regarded as essential facts. IMO, it's always a good idea to read the full link before posting about (or criticizing) information in the short version. Rule #14) You will not post any copyrighted material except as fair use laws apply (as in the case of news articles). Please only post a link, the headline and the first three sentences. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Always happy to educate those with confidence above their knowledge level. And thanks for the unearned title. I continue to wait in vain hope for a calling to the greatness of moderator level. I thought a basic knowledge of forum rules would help me with my quest. Actual moderators have referred me there several times. ???? 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
