During his speech, Prime Minister Gen. Prayut Chan-o-cha touched on how the COVID-19 pandemic afflicted health security and economic security all around the world and deepened many aspects of disparity.

 

He suggested closing disparity gaps, firstly by working on the public health emergencies preparedness and response system. He asked all countries and parties to collaborate on this work under a multilateral approach.

The prime minister gave emphasis to global collaboration in 3 major areas, the first of which is making COVID-19 vaccines and medicines public goods.

 

The second area involves supporting the universal healthcare drive in all countries based on sustainable development goals and accelerating negotiations for the setting up of a pandemic bond. The third area is the promotion of the Bio-Circular-Green economy model as a new economic pursuit that links human security to a post-pandemic recovery that is sustainable, balanced, and inclusive.

 

The Paris Peace Forum is a French non-profit organization that hosts a gathering of world leaders, heads of international organizations, civil society leaders, and private sector representatives annually, on November 11-13 of each year. Held since 2018, the forum exists to promote cooperation between governments and other sectors in order to multilaterally address global problems that are not conducive to peace.

 

This year, the forum was held in Paris as a mixed-format event that enabled on-site as well as remote participation.

  • Keep on putting out meaningless statements by stating the obvious why don't you? for 7 years now your people keep hearing your daily  drivel, time to give it a rest and let someone else have a go...

  • Be nice if he felt that way for vaccine procurement and distribution here in thailand.   Only the regime, and a few close collaborators, are allowed to purchase/import COVID-19 vaccines.

  • I do not especially like the angry Greta girl, but oh lord is she right about "blah blah blah".   What the heck is Bio-Circular-Green economy model? I would start with the "Tuk tuk circular

What the heck is Bio-Circular-Green economy model? I would start with the "Tuk tuk circular model" in which the exhaust pipe is inside a mask fastened to the face of the driver.

It’s a good idea but I just can’t shake that nagging feeling they WILL <deleted> it up somehow…they always do!

Time to make them "public goods" at home? Let hospitals import/purchase vaccines just as they do for all other vaccines/meds.

The Asians only talk this nonsense when they think they can convince gullible Western countries. 

 

You can be guaranteed Prayut won't be in China talking this nonsense.

Great idea make Covid 19 vaccine public goods then the Govt can purchase from whoever gives the greatest kickback. The major manufactures do not entertain the Thai business methodology, that's why they purchased what they did at the beginning. Not purchased on efficacy. 

Wonder how many might be buying this act.

No it's ministers using catchy tags sniffing their own exhaust system.

Brilliant. Now that Uncle-General-Czar has single-handedly eliminated disparity in Thailand…..he can share his dazzling disparity-eliminating insights and leadership with the rest of the world.

And what's Thailand's contribution to this magnificent initiative going to be? Som dam? 

Blah, blah, blah.  Get back to Thailand and get back to work. 

Always looking for someone else to clean up the mess you created Cha Cha.

Will he start with the disparity between rich & poor?  There are 14 million of the latter - up by a million.  I suspect there are many more of the former who made a pile buying Chinese vaccines.

Public goods??..….could be an access point to a remarkable percentage increase in private funds for the priviledged few!!!

A misinformation post relating to COVID immunity has been removed.

 

I am amazed at the exuberance of his verbosity. To quote Greta blah,blah, blah .

Prayut has been at the helm for 7 years. Can someone tell me what sustainable results he has archived that have benefited the entire Thai population so far?

I had to smile ????

 

My guess is that it's possibly connected to "Doughnut Economics" which is a model of sustainable economics developed by Kate Raworth fairly recently. It has been a hot topic for economics nuts like myself for a while.

To demonstrate his own commitment he should announce that the entire output from Thailand's  own vaccine production plant will be donated to African nations......

"the first of which is making COVID-19 vaccines and medicines public goods."

 

I wonder if he cleared this with the owner of Siam Biosciences??  Could be a substantial drop in profits for SB.

If private hospitals and individuals had been allowed to buy vaccines 18-20 months ago, Thailand could have opened to tourists much sooner.  Financial losses would have been much smaller.   Who was it that decided that vaccines could only be bought by the GPO?  What was the reason for that decision?

Will Thailand / Prayuth practice what he preaches?  Let the AZ mfg in Thailand be the first to step up and give away Covid vaccines to other countries.

 

Pinocchio talks big with nothing behind it.

 

Good to see the protesters now raising the issues he talks about.  How his gov is the one that undemocratically did the coup on the people of Thailand.

The activist's messages never seem to penetrate deeply enough throughout the population - coup cycle after the next - for the masses to raise in a unified effort, even though the everyday man is quite knowledgeable and aware of what's going on around them. Nor do they take it upon themselves act as a broad collective to live their protests.....or they're comfortable enough in their everyday lives that they find no reason to raise. That's reasoned. 

 

All of these ongoing surface shenanigans and treachery have little to do with placed puppets that we shout out at everyday. 

Consider the deeper source.

Profits and control by way of the assorted fiefdoms? 

He might be listened to if he dismantled all the private monopolies and oligopolies in Thailand.

 

 

Of course all contries and parties are listen to him breathless.
