If the CCP says something you know it's true. Xi is 100% trustworthy. I still think there's an underlying  monetary aspect to this be it a monetary threat from Beijing or a handout. Remember this happened just after the puppet PM got back from her China visit.

Thailand's international credibility takes another hit.

 

Why are the Thai ultra-nationalists not complaining about or demonstrating against the Government for bringing Thailand's reputation into international (bar China) disrepute?

 

Where are you Khun Sondhi?

They can defend as much as they like. The thing is they are bending over for their Chinese masters and are cowards. They deserve a "slap on the fingers"!

Kudos to the US for taking action and drawing attention to the atrocities committed by China and its accomplices

 

And what about the atrocities now taking place under the Trump regime regarding the forced repatriation of South Americans in chains?

 

Many of these people are fleeing persecution, murders, blackmail, decapitation, etc at the hands of the drug cartels in Mexico, Colombia, Peru, but that doesn't matter, does it?

Bangkok has emphasised its adherence to humanitarian principles and its historical role as a refuge for those fleeing persecution.

Yeah, just take a look at Thailands humanitarian history... rather checkered to say the least

Thailand is definitely on the wrong side of history on this one and the morally bankrupted administration made the wrong decision and bowed down and took the knee to Xi. 

 

China is hated worldwide, for good reason. It’s a lesson Xi has signally failed to absorb over Xinjiang. A detailed, independent US report recently confirmed that his regime has repeatedly breached the UN genocide convention in its horrific mistreatment of Uighurs.

 

Yet still Beijing persists in issuing grotesque statements flatly denying filmed and documented evidence of gross abuse. Its lies would be funny if they were not so egregious. Simultaneously, it traduces independent, fact-based journalism – and whinges mightily when Britain’s ambassador stresses its importance.

 

This sorry crew of party hacks and throwbacks must wake up. Polls show that China’s international standing is plummeting. Feelings of animosity and enmity grow. The ever more sophisticated, connected global audience scrutinising its daily actions is not so easily bamboozled as, say, its rural masses, held in check by starvation wages, propaganda and fear.

 

If Xi wants the respect traditionally afforded a great power, he must act responsibly in crises such as Myanmar, come clean on crimes in Xinjiang and Tibet, stop bullying the neighbours, and cease spewing silly lies as if he can somehow create an alternative reality.

PM got her marching orders on the trip to Beijing.  She knows who's buttering her bread.

In a statement issued over the weekend, Thai authorities stressed assurances from China guaranteeing the safety of the deported Uyghurs.

Anyone idiotic enough to believe this?

They wouldn’t be trying to defend their decision so full forward if they all didn’t know it’s a bold face lie. No one is agreeing with this nonsense and they aren’t going to change their minds with a few lines of BS. Shame on Thailand’s leadership.

That has got to be the most ridiculous comparison I have ever heard. 

No it isn't

 

Forcibly repatriating  people, many of who are  in mortal danger.

 

Very unlike the boats landing in the UK and pretending they are asylum seekers when they are just there to sponge off our state. These guys are not in danger.

 

Many of the South Americans are.

 

But that doesn't fit the present US narrative under Trump.

You're comparing government oppression to cartels and gang members, that's like saying people living in gang infested cities in the USA should illegally immigrate to Europe and ask for refugee status. Your post is utter nonsense.

You should insert a laughing emoji. People might think you're serious.

Crap comparison by you.

 

You are talking nonsense.

 

The South Americans, many of which have entered the US illegally are genuinely running from cartels, who aren't running cities, they are running countries with the assistance of corrupt officials.

 

They are fleeing persecution, and Trump and his team are now forcibly repatriating them.

 

That's the similarity to the Uighurs in China.

 

So the USA slaps travel bans on Thai officials, who are just doing the same as US officials.

What about the US?

 

They abandoned the South Vietnamese under General Dương Văn Minh, and let the North slaughter them, they abandoned the Cambodians under Lon Nol, and the Khmer Rouge slaughtered them.

 

More recently, they abandoned the Afghanis who fought alongside them, leading to a certain death by the Taliban, after promising them refugee status in the US.

 

They didn't want to enter the war against Hitler until Pearl Harbour.

 

Now, they are pulling the plug on Ukraine.
