Popular Post mtls2005 Posted May 25, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted May 25, 2021 Well, there are royal pardons, maybe annually in May to mark the King's ascension to the throne. I saw a blurb about 1,590 prisoners being released via Royal Pardons in Phuket last week. And an article from two years ago (again, in May) mentioned "tens of thousands" released on Royal Pardons. Rather than screaming about fake news maybe the prison chief could just provide facts on releases, and plans to deal with the virus in the prisons which he is responsible for? The way to deal with fake news is to be open, honest, accurate and transparent. When you can't do that, scream about fake news I guess. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
