I can just see Crowe gulping down little bottles of Chicken Essence.....

More like several yummy jars of birds nest soup , 4 wooden elephants , a dried pressed orchid , 1 Pla Ra jar ,  1 kilo of sticky rice , fried garlic and a picture of Prayuth and his wife ( unframed. ) 

B lister trying to hold off being demoted to the C list.

Never fails to amaze me how these people fluff and fawn over a "celebrity" and give a 2k basket and sieze the photo Op.

The people who contribute everyday year in year out are merely tolerated and often abused.

 

Such a poor blinkered attitude is sickening and quite pathetic.

 

Suprised they didnt offer a plastic bag to put it in, I read they like using those, versatile too apparently.

Just looking at Russ he probably would have preferred less flowers and lots more food.

Imagine the response if you offered Prayut Chan-ocha a gift basket!

"Where's the F$#@ing envelope" would be the cry!

What did you have in mind? A supercar? An elephant? Some gold bars?

No, but at least twenty-four jars of birds nest jelly!

Never really understood Australians wanting to come here for the beaches. 

They like vegemite so don't worry about it - there is something wrong with them.  Too many alligator bites?  I don't know....

But I digress...

It's sad to see Thailand's people suffer with no tourism.  I hope that international travel picks up meaningfully next year if not sooner.  

** edited to add **

I'm only kidding Aussies.  I wouldn't want you flaming me using idioms only known to a country of about 25 million. ????

I understand that, I saw a big black manta ray when surfing off Point Lonsdale.  Nearly had a heart attack.

Neither do I to be honest, Aus has some amazing beaches.

 

FWIW Russ Crow came to make a movie.... and he is not Australian.

yes, he's actually a New Zealander, but his family moved to Australia when he was about 4yrs old.

I believe he owned a property at Nana Glen (30min inland from Coffs Harbour )  , a nice part of the world.

"Crowe thanked the Prime Minister for the souvenir and mentioned that he really admired Thailand, especially Thai people’s characteristics and kindness which comforted him throughout his travel."

Well, fairly sure he's English so it'd be Murmite. Same same but different.

Bangkok – Culture Minister Itthiphol Kunplome, on behalf of Prime Minister Prayut Chan-O’Cha, met and gave a gift basket to Hollywood star Russell Crowe to thank the actor for publicizing “Phuket Sandbox” and tourist attractions during his trip in Thailand on social media.

Bird on the right looking alluring. Wonder what Russell got up to in Thailand...
