[webfact]

 

Prime Minister Prayut Chan-o-cha declared Thailand’s readiness yesterday (Sunday) to host the APEC Summit on November 18th and 19th, as he urged the Thai people to join the government in being good hosts to the foreign delegates.

 

Speaking at a press conference on his return from the ASEAN Summit in Phnom Penh, the prime minister said that he has confidence in all of the officials concerned with the arrangements for the summit, adding, however, that members of the public should help to ensure that the event will proceed smoothly and without disruption.

 

“This is an event of national importance,” he said, as he asked all parties in society to ensure orderliness throughout the summit and related meetings.

 

He said that Thailand is second to none in hosting international conferences, adding that security officials have no intention to intimidate or infringe on the rights of people during the summit.

So it is "please be well behaved for two days so that I look good to outsiders".

After the conference you can be down-trodden peasants as before.

This guy is unbelievable.

 

"security officials have no intention to intimidate or infringe on the rights of people during the summit".

Do not worry, we will still beat you up afterwards?
