A good example of presentation with no substance.

I'm sure that by now, seeing all this display of might, resolve and regalia, the criminals and would be criminals are shaking in their boots...

[Dazinoz]

Yep, don't worry about all the crime committed by locals, got to get them nasty, dirty crime committing farang.

Fanfare for the common man.

I'm guessing that out of the 247 personnel that took part, 200 reported in sick after being made to stand in the rain. Complete and utter idiots
