Bkk Brian Posted October 1, 2021 Share Posted October 1, 2021 I suspect bubble and seals on the way soon. Always used as a reactionary approach due to limited testing. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Tropicalevo Posted October 2, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted October 2, 2021 (edited) There should be no surprise about this. All efforts have been focused on Bangkok plus a few other areas. Whereas the provinces that have little political 'clout' with the generals, have had very little effort, energy or resources sent to help them. That is where Thaksin showed his 'smarts'. Look after the little people - there are more of them. Ignore them at your peril. Edited October 2, 2021 by Tropicalevo 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why doesn't Prayut cut them loose, then he can delete the figures. He's not interested in those far southern provinces. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If there's anyone that has done a lot of harm to the people in the deep south, it's Thaksin. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
