BTW, the PM was a student when I helped start the English Program at St Joseph's Convent in 1996/7. Her English has improved a lot! 

Smart young lady. 
Any photos?

I'm a little angry as if given to some, give to us all. 

I'm not surprised.

Do you recall Sister Erlinda?

So, in the Poll of 2000 people, 56.9% were eligible = 1138, of which 41.5% were angry = 473.

Where does the one third come from?

Oh yes, she was the head of the program. Very strict. Sister Rose was big boss, amazing the influential friends she had.

There are some photos somewhere, they had a big celebration, I think 90 years of the school, 100 years of the Order in Thailand. 

Cardinal from Rome, etc.

I think the bigger issue is that this was changed dozens of times.

Who gets money?

How?

For what?

When?

If this would be a real thing, then all these questions would have been answered before this was approved.

Now, as far as I know, the money is already budgeted, but they still don't know who will get it when and how.

To me, this looks like an untransparent scam - Thaksin style.

I hope people will stay angry until the next election.

exactly,  well described.

Anything over 666 is more than a third of 2000.

I know people that have already received the money. I don't know how they will justify not giving out the rest. I don't support the policy to be clear, but now that they have started, it would be a total shirtstorm if they don't finish it.

 

Yep the brother in law received the money, but he will not vote for them

The handout, aimed at boosting economic activity, is set to deliver 10,000 baht in digital money to eligible participants. However, the uncertainty surrounding its continuation has stirred mixed emotions among the public.

Started with everyone over the age of 16...  watered down promises from the PTP

This handout was a vote winner for Phue Thai and ensured Thaksins return. 

However the difficulty in administration has resulted in many disgruted voters

Who cares

If somebody won say $2,000,000 on the lottery and had promised you a third. Would you be happy accepting $473,000 instead of $666,000?
