Popular Post snoop1130 Posted July 4, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted July 4, 2022 Government chief whip Nirote Sunthornlekha has warned the opposition that the plan by some of its MPs to question the government over last week’s incursion by a Myanmar MiG-29 jet into Thai airspace, over Tak province, may undermine the country’s national security, which could be deemed a criminal offence. Calling the plan nonsensical, he said today (Monday) that the incident is not a big deal and that the Thai government has already protested through diplomatic channels and that the incident has not damaged the relationship between the two neighbours. He said he doubts whether the opposition wants Thailand to declare war on Myanmar over the incident.

Popular Post Thailand Posted July 4, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted July 4, 2022 I think maybe Myanmar knows that most of the recent weapons purchases don't have any propulsion units. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Bobtheblob Posted July 4, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted July 4, 2022 This is where the soo called Thai democracy fails. All questions asked inside parliament should not be subject to the same ludicrous defamation and soo called national security limits. 8 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post ThailandRyan Posted July 4, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted July 4, 2022 Say what....I thought parliament was were national security matters were discussed amongst the political appointed folks. 1 hour ago, snoop1130 said: Government chief whip Nirote Sunthornlekha has warned the opposition that the plan by some of its MPs to question the government over last week’s incursion by a Myanmar MiG-29 jet into Thai airspace, over Tak province, may undermine the country’s national security, which could be deemed a criminal offence. So a discussion would be a criminal offense.....holy feces batman, the chief whip has laid an egg. Me thinks he shat all over himself with this statement. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post ikke1959 Posted July 4, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted July 4, 2022 Civil war in Myanmar and aircraft use the Thai airspace to attack..If Thailand want to be neutral as they always say, they have to respond and forbid the planes over flying in the Thai airspace. But the same with the Russian oil. Thailand says to be neutral but will buy Russian Oil..There are surely tourists who will avoid a country that says to be neutral but act differently. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thailand's national oil and gas company has just taken over full control of the biggest gas field in Burma. 2 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Puccini Posted July 4, 2022 Share Posted July 4, 2022 Today, I read on a news website – forgot which one – that Russia gives military aid to Myanmar. Perhaps the Thai government does not want to upset Putin unnecessarily. In Europe, Russia often makes incusions into the air space of nearby countries to test their response and the palititians of the opposition parties make no fuss about it in the parliament. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post klauskunkel Posted July 4, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted July 4, 2022 (edited) "The incident is not a big deal", but talking about it "may undermine the national security"...

Aussieroaming Posted July 5, 2022 Share Posted July 5, 2022 That's one way of silencing the opposition party, veiled threats of potential criminal offences. Junta cousins looking after each other. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
