ZhouZhou Posted March 22, 2013 Share Posted March 22, 2013 It's worse than a kindergarten. Having to tell a PM and her Ministers to do their job, the job they were elected to do. These people really take the biscuit, their arrogance and impunity are so blatant it is an outrage, and Yingluck is about to pick up an Honorary Degree in NZ for services on the international stage....what a joke.Only goes to show how educational standards have fallen in the west - Honorary Degrees given to anyone and everyone whilst, everyone else has to attend and do very little to get one! Western Universities should take a look at attendance and see if we can reduce the hours Has the NZ uni shared any details / examples of these outstanding contributions to the international stage which deserve an honorary degree? Anybody seen anything on this? i doubt the academic experts at this board could answer you that question, so i would not ask here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So, come on then wise old sage, give us the benefit of your wisdom, which of course is beyond doubt? Tell us devoted disciples why she deserves this accolade? Which she doesn't anyway, honorary used to mean something (I think it still does in TV) the word has been gradually eroded over time, and is now pretty much meaning less..... bit like the Real PM.

hellodolly Posted March 23, 2013 Share Posted March 23, 2013 I wasn't aware that PM's were required to attend ALL parliament meetings. As head of state, she's supposed to have other duties isn't she? Meeting with foreign leaders and such... And your point is that she need not show any sense of responsibility to the people who elected her. Maybe you can get one of the tablets that are coming in for educational purposes some time in the sweet by and by. It would be a big help to you in understanding her duties as Prime Minister. You are clearly confusing her with her clone the wanna be dictator Thaksin. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hellodolly Posted March 23, 2013 Share Posted March 23, 2013 It appears that Parliament will just have to shut down if they stick by their word. Well that would mean dropping the fiasco white washing of Thaksin. You don't suppose that is her reason for not doing her job? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Orac Posted March 24, 2013 Share Posted March 24, 2013 Though I can understand why the PM should be in parliament occasionally to answer questions her reluctance might be down to the poor quality of the questions being asked if the examples given are anything to go by. Twaddle. Statements have already been made about support for expo 2020 and. as to support for the monarchy because of a TV show, what answer would you expect to be given to such a question. Also, given that the the government/cabinet have already made pledges in front of His Majesty of loyalty and supporting the monarchy, why does a BJT MP think that a declaration to parliament is needed in the first place. There are many important questions which need to be asked of this government and they should be made to answer in parliament but asking questions over their loyalty to the monarchy is just political grandstanding and seeking to stir up of the worst sort of trouble. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Really seen as world class statesperson. Let's see - fugitive convicted criminal brother, sister just retruning from 5 year ban on politics, neice still serving ban on politics, and now facing serious investigations herself. Yep - fits right in there with Marcos, Mugabe, and all those others in the "limelight" for all the wrong reasons. Country ticking along nicely - yep, so many great scamming opportunities! She is seen for exactly what she is - make no mistake. But, countries these days will deal with anybody to get there own agenda advanced. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now that's better. There are indeed many serious questions which need to be asked of this government, and pursued. But, magnifying the irrelevant or stirring up trouble seems to be de rigeur in politics these days, and not just in Thailand. To suggest Yingluck doesn't attend parliament because of the quality of the questions is nonsense. She doesn't attend because she can't be bothered, has know respect for parliament, has no real understanding or idea of what's going on, and isn't really running things. Asking provocative or seemingly frivolrous questions is an attempt to provoke attendance. PTPs style is to avoid answering questions and sling mud, intimidate or require a government department to "investigate" those that dare ask them. They are not the first political party to adopt this style, and its not unique to Thailand. It usually masks activitites that are not quite right. That's why its an important part of the democratic process that the PM regularly attends parliament to face scruitinization and questionning from a robust opposition. But, he's probably too busy so occasionally sends his sister! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

siampolee Posted March 24, 2013 Share Posted March 24, 2013 Please remember that Thaksin a convicted bail jumping felon is paying his P.T.P. ( Parasites and Ticks Party) minion puppets their allowances thus they are not truly representative of the electorate but are they are representing a selve serving spiteful malevolent megalomaniac who actually opposes democracy, nothing more nothing less. If you have a crooked picture of Thaksin in a frame which is hanging crookedly on the wall you can get the frame to hang in a regular way, however the Thaksin image is still crooked no matter what you do or how you view that image.
