Sydebolle Posted August 7, 2021 Share Posted August 7, 2021 I would have to cough up top dollars for political cabaret and good soap operas in my native birth country. Here the hits keep on flying in on a daily, twice daily and sometimes hourly basis - I just love the idiocy of all those crétins. Make him prime minister; other flour traders before him (though not convicted with free accommodation in Australia) tried before him ..... and failed. Under the given circumstances of how the leadership is raping this country, I am not too sure if the Captain would fail. Never a dull moment, we will see anytime soon; possibly sooner than some sitting politicians would fear! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The extend to which the economy is decimated right now, is something we may not know for years to come, as it is being hidden, as well as they possibly can hide it. All we need is a desperado felon, helming the country. Thailand is not already enough of a laughing stock, throughout the world? Just try this one. Just try it. As it stands now, 100 years from now, they may be teaching about Prayuth and Phiphat, as the men who presided over the once great industry of tourism, the once great nation of Thailand, and the men who helped destroy the economy and industry millions depended upon. And the men who helped precipitate the demise and decline of Thailand, from the tiger of SE Asia (and at one time the 21st largest economy in the world) to a whiny, sickly, skinny, disease infested alley cat, on it's last legs. And on par with Burundi, Mauritania, Burkina Faso, Yemen, and Sierra Leone. Imagine someone like this drug lord taking over? It boggles the mind. How low can they possibly sink? We are witnessing such moral depravity. Tourism is suffering from a world wide pandemic . That is what the teachings will be in 100 years from now.

All members of the Military Junta that took over Thailand and got rich in the process should be stripped down and handed to the people for Judgement before they flee Thailand for an extradition free country with their ill gotten gains.

unblocktheplanet Posted August 7, 2021 Share Posted August 7, 2021 TV should not be dignifying this criminal as "Captain". Captain of what? Good Ship Lollipop?

Nearly as funny as having a Prime Minister who seized power by imprisoning leaders of opposing parties, making his own constitutional changes to ensure that he had a hefty (150) start in the last "Democratic" election, and openly denies there will be another election in the foreseeable future, while "off stage" has been heard to say "I'm going to be here for a while yet!" 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Artisi Posted August 7, 2021 Share Posted August 7, 2021 12 hours ago, mtls2005 said: Relevance? None. But I think the thamanat argument is that he is not a felon in the eyes of thailand. Doesn't matter that is accepted in LOS, it's what the rest of the world thinks. Can you see Aus. opening its arms to a criminal convicted of drug smuggling in Aust., and I'm sure a word in the ear of US, UK, and other major countries would result in a similar response.

Thaksin then pledges his allegiance to number 1 (and with that comes much of the nations allegiance) and everyone’s happy. Now that would be fun. He’s bent but at least the place was happy and prosperous. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This, he said, was ideal for someone to be a politician or a gangster. No wonder Thailand is in such a mess, most are both of the above. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caldera Posted August 7, 2021 Share Posted August 7, 2021 Just what Thailand needs, another officer and this time a convicted drug trafficker on top. While it doesn't seem to count in Thailand, as he wasn't convicted by a Thai court, he's hardly a suitable representative for his country when it comes to dealing with foreign leaders.
