Mr. Prayut also urged his fellow leaders to maintain peace in the region, as well as constructive cooperation with external partners, to allow for the continued development of the bloc’s economies and societies. According to the Thai Prime Minister, international cooperation is essential to overcome recent challenges effectively, be it the COVID-19 pandemic, technological advancement, climate change or others.

Popular Post Tropicalevo Posted October 26, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted October 26, 2021 (edited) ASEAN should definitely rally round and help each other to support the Philippines foreign minister when he told China to 'get the fxxx out' of their waters. Indonesia was less abrasive when they told the CCP to leave. https://mothership.sg/2021/05/china-philippines-teddy-locsin-twitter/ Edited October 26, 2021 by Tropicalevo 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Gold Star Posted October 26, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted October 26, 2021 China’s CCP thinks it is big enough to push smaller countries around to take what they want, by dividing and conquering those opposed. Expansion into the South China Sea is one example. It is time that ASEAN stand united as a group and show the bully they will not tolerate that kind of behavior. The west should stand with them. Otherwise, SE Asia should be prepared for a bleak future wrought with enslavement and control. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mostly to irritate my Mrs, I can see her visibly beginning to fume as he spouts off on TV. Is this repeated all over Thailand?

mfd101 Posted October 27, 2021 Share Posted October 27, 2021 When ASEAN learns to speak with one voice, it will carry some (moderate) weight. In the absence of that, noone outside - least of all PRC & Usofa, and not even Oz - gives a damn what they think. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is this repeated all over Thailand? Yes. I have not been able to find a single soul, who likes him, approves of him, or thinks he is doing a good job. Not one. His approval rating is likely down to 1%. Figure 2,200 generals, some officers, some cops, the crony senators and others who are making huge money from their rackets and mafias, and benefitting from his protection. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just look what happened to Hong Kong, and now the blatant threats to Taiwan—and you’ll see what could happen to SE Asia. Thailand does not have a benevolent neighbor. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
