Report Thai PM Jets To UK & Monaco To Push 'Soft Power' Agenda

[Frankie baby]

Can't be an official visit, no red carpet, and no thrashing out import & export tariffs or the usual bilateral communications exercise.  So, it's just the shopping then.

Any chance of her signing the legislation that the UK government hides behind to stop pensioners here receiving their cost of living increases.

Thought not.

Not interested then.

Sounds like a few day holiday trip for her at the government expense maybe she’ll pop in and give the latest news to the Red Bull kid when he can come back without having to go to the suite in the hospital Thailand government TIT

She will be able tp stay with her sister Yingluck avoiding justice in the luxury house owned by Thasksin. No nominees required for his purchase. 

And be out of the country if the impossible happens with Yingluck found guilty of the rice scheme on may 22 and has to cough up 35 billion.

coveted recognition to 115 Thai restaurants

Why do the media still say things like "Thai PM jets to...."  It's like they are stuck in the 1960's or something.  Everyone here came on a plane but nobody ever said they "jetted" here.  Weird.

This trip sounds more like the PM is becoming a tourist rather than going there to promote Thai tourism. 

I am curious her choices as to why she feels she can do a better job at promoting tourism when there is a whole ministry in the government to do this. I also question her choices of locations. Monaco? really? It is the smallest country in the world with only 38,000 people living there. She could get the whole country to come visit Thailand and it would not make a dent in tourism income..

You can't have sensationalism without being sensationalist.

 

That's the Media for you.

Good for her.  

 

In the UK, she'll aim for the lower end.  And in Monaco, she'll go for the upper end of the tourist spending spectrum.

 

One private jet with 3 or 4 pax probably has the same spending knock-on as an A320 full of normal tourists.  And I'm sure she'll be hobnobbing with a lot of the private jet crowd at F1.  She's probably got good seats and a pit pass.

A Jolly.

It’s easy to fool the populace with such comments and plans. Yeah right meet F1 management at the most expensive and prestigious round. She could’ve met them in Singapore or other close to home events. There are more pressing issues facing her people than hosting an F1 event which will cost them more than they’ll earn from it not to mention it’s way out of reach for even middle class Thais let alone the average Thai.
