Well, Prayuth's 15 minutes of fame; assume this exchange was done in fluent Thai. 

On a more sombre note, who pays for the wedding and the use of the White House infrastructure - just asking for an (American tax-paying) friend. 

Interesting also is the priority allocated to the wedding of a granddaughter over the attendance of the Asia-Pacific-Economic-Conference, known as APEC. Is the sweetheart in a sudden hurry so that this wedding could not be moved by an inch?

Thailand supplies medium format chips to the US and the world. It is still important to the US. And it shows here. Will be interesting to see how it plays out in the long run. Looks like Xi is pi$$ed for sure.  Will Thailand cave and support China more or will it turn and start supporting the US.  Fun times ahead.  

Bottom line is it is getting harder for Thailand to straddle the fence.
