Plans For Thailand To Send A Man Into Space

[apetley]

Hey, if the Chinese did it then Thaksin must be able to as well, right?

[taxexile]

thats right , and if they can get an airport built and operating in only thirty years , then they should be able to launch a man into space within 10.

Best laugh I've had all day....

You're missing the real purpose.

Space is a new frontier.

Which needs to be handled with proper security arrangements.

(This is a great chance to buy a few more X-Ray machines)

Maybe he's after the lunar mobile phone concession

Don't forget it will be the new frontier for hubs too. We will have space hub being announced any day now.

[Johpa]

I'm still waiting for the first launch and recovery of a fixed winged aircraft from the decks of the HMS Chakri Naruebet.

Chaiyo!

....I am told his first preferred astronaut is Khun Chewit .

Mine too!

Actually, I find this quite sad. I don't know what Thailand will gain from this - maybe "prestige" (face), maybe technological know-how - but why not decide to NOT participate in the space-race, and instead finish the BTS, or fill in the pot holes in the pavements, build more reservoirs, put the electricity cables underground, etc, etc, etc?

[raro]

Taksin has said he wants to put a thai  man into space.

Nothing very difficult there.

He said nothing about bringing him back, thats the difficult part.

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

Can someone confirm that muslims from the four southern-most provinces are encouraged to sign up for the space program?

[OlRedEyes]

Yea, and hey, improve the education system.

I understand that from the responses in another thread that farangs only complain because they actually like Thailand.

And perhaps I can also try to understand that it's because they love the Thais that they would look for every opportunity to mock the Thai people.

I wonder how many posters here would give the same comments up in front of a Thai.  Oh perhaps they will, isn't it part of farang's culture to speak out their minds?

The above posts are encouraging, aren't they?  Thais should stick to the fields and grow crops.  Imagining themselves associated with technology is just unrealistic.  They have done extremely well already to have people who could lay their hands on a computer keyboard!

Sorry to spoil the party here.  But honestly curious to why these are words that come out from the people who actually claim they like Thailand. 

Don't get me wrong.  I don't dislike the posts.  They are not hypocritical at least.

Hope I don't get banned.  Flames welcomed.

Now com on the thread is hilarious. Toxin probably saw an old JFK documentary.

We do like your warm weather, dirty beaches cheap food and cheap accommodations etc. As far as I can see all the "technology" in Thailand is imported or pirated.

And what does this mean:

"I wonder how many posters here would give the same comments up in front of a Thai. Oh perhaps they will, isn't it part of farang's culture to speak out their minds?"

<Mod edit - please keep your comments about Thais civil at least>

Now back to the party.

toxin is a true spaceman

i'm sure with all the debt and poverty that he is going to clear up within the next

--- years he is impressing his fold.

come the next elections no doubt he will give away free tickets to the moon to go with all the free buffalo's from the last election promise

[ilyushin]

He (PM) has already made it to space ( between his ears). I can't wait to see the Thai Flash Gordon

What is this edit about. This terd made a crack about Farangs and requested a response. You can check any case where a Farang has an altercation with a Thai it is always 10 - 20 against one. Same as the racists in The US 100 years ago, same as Israelis today.

Only cowards behave this way. It is not civil behavior, why cover it up? What is your point with the cover up?

You would think in an anonymous forum people could try to be honest with themselves!!!

[Patex]

Good idea!

Let the Thai's pay for the cleaner who has to wipe the spacedust off the ShinSattelites

Yeah and that'll cost heaps. Abt 200bht a day. Maybe that's where they are heading with this whole thing. They'll surely be able to clean up all the space junk REAL cheap. And make a profit too.

Hmm priorities.......

and a deadline so far away it means nothing just like most deadlines set by the government.

Anyway it's quite likley a Thai will go into space in next Ten years as a part of an international space crew joining China, russia, US, Europe. I doubt they'll be funding their own program tho.

The edit was the direct result of a couple of reports from other Forum members who found it offensive.

No cover up at all... just doing some housework.

[cobra]

It's true, sources say there's been a secret underground rocket complex on Koh Chang for years,

Seen here, a smuggled out photo of state of the art data systems ...

[booma]

Having a rocket in space will make a nice change from having space in their rockets.

Housework??? Use some judgement. I find it offensive also but it is a fact and a problem for unknowing farangs. **Edit - More housecleaning. Last warning to stop this**

Even though you're Thai, you have to admit the idea is laughable. The only thing that would make me laugh harder tonight would be a plan to send Bulgarians into space (and I'm very Bulgarian, so no mocking there)!

OOhh, you're in troublleeee! Actually, I do have the signup sheet here...I'll take a look here...nope, no temples or children to blow up...they'll pass. I'm probably going to hel_l for that. THAIS...IN...SPACE!!!!!!!

[majush]

This whole thread is hilarious.. just came to news clippings to read abt bomb blasts in some Thai city and this thread made my day....

[ilyushin]

We now have a photo through our intel division of the first rocket for the TSP. It is now undergoing some technical checks and payload adjustments. It is clear there is a problem with the MTOW. Ready cooked rice meals aren't an issue from our source.

So very sad,i think that all readers from all countries can see a reflection

of our own 'leaders'throwing red herrings by the ton,to cover the B/S

that we as reasonably ejakated hoomons see right through !

Each & every land has its own brand of same,just a REAL shame the Thai

people,being poor & under-educated have to put up with highly educated

con-men who would take (with a smile)their last chance.
