I take it that your girlfriend holds a high ranked political position, otherwise I wouldn't have a clue as why the feelings of your girlfriend are of any importance here. Assuming she is Thai, and possibly even a red shirt supporter as is mine, she is an example of how even die-hards run out of words when it comes to defending the likes of Chalerm. I hope he realises that teetotaller muslims may be offended by the smell of stale alcohol from his skin. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She's merely a normal Thai girl. Her opinion is no less or more valid than a 'high ranking politician'. Only difference is, the high ranking politician works for her and not the other way round. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chainarong Posted January 8, 2013 Share Posted January 8, 2013 One doubts that going to Malaysia will solve anything, the politicians seem to think that this problem can be solved by them , all to simplistic, they need to talk to the people at the coal face the radical muslim and what they would hear would certainly not suit their idea of solving the problems, to be truthful Chalerm and everyone in Thai politics is aware of the answer, implementing it is another thing.This is just another exercise of many , they seem to be doing something when nothing is getting done at all.

RisqEM Posted January 8, 2013 Share Posted January 8, 2013 I'll bet all of his pimping and expertise in massage parlors and bull terriers make him a real expert on tensions in the south. Thailand should be embarrassed, being represented by a pimp (although kind of fitting). Bringing his pimp game to a new level! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
simple1 Posted January 8, 2013 Share Posted January 8, 2013 In Today's BKK Post Chalerm is claiming he has an agreement with an Islamic leader to broadcast a recorded message on the new broadcasting facility being established in the local language outlining government solutions; whatever they may be (?) Also saying negotiating work permits for Thais in the Deep South to work in Malaysia to reduce unemployment. If, and it's a big if, the Thai government can reduce unemployment in the area you would think it's a positive step forward. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EyesWideOpen Posted January 8, 2013 Share Posted January 8, 2013 a. This guy is a national embarrassment to Thailand, a thug masquerading as a politician. b. Why is he going to Malaysia ??? I would think it would be more logical to speak to the Pattani rebels about what they want. Wait I guess that could be a bit dangerous, better to hang out in Malaysia. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

slapout Posted January 8, 2013 Share Posted January 8, 2013 The reference to leading and Chalerm may be a little misleading. He seems to have a perchance to lead to the bar, reporter's interviews, etc but he has yet to actually lead to any noticable acomplishment on any projects to date. I am sure he will come out huffing and puffing about what is going to happen as per his directive, but 3 months down the road, it will be 'same same' zilch. He as those like him should have been either "put out to pasture" or "put down" several governments ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ricardo Posted January 8, 2013 Share Posted January 8, 2013 Shouldn't negotiations with ministers of other countries be the job of the Foreign Minister, or is he currently too busy, not negotiating with Cambodia about the likely outcome of the ICJ over the boundary round the temple ?

If, and it's a big if, the Thai government can reduce unemployment in the area you would think it's a positive step forward. What unemployment? Instead of avoiding even visiting the south, Chalerm is pretending to do 'something' by doing the foreign minister's job - it's called 'grandstanding'. He is the wrong person to be put in charge of anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thai at Heart Posted January 8, 2013 Share Posted January 8, 2013 This is very un-Thai; Why is Chalerm asking foreigners to interfere in what is essentially a Thai problem? He's probably working out who to talk to down south. Its such a long way from bangkok you know, he wouldn't want to waste his time finding out about the situation. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cats4ever Posted January 9, 2013 Share Posted January 9, 2013 What seemed like a good idea to Britain & Thailand in the early 1900's, the transferring of Malay people to Thai sovereignty, has come back to bite the Thais. A long term solution may be to consider transferring those provinces to Malaysia. I know it won't happen, or not until lots more blood has been spilt.

Thait Spot Posted January 9, 2013 Share Posted January 9, 2013 No one in the south has any time for this goon. His impolite and unprofessional comments about them in the past has seen to that.
