Another photo doing the rounds on the big Thai web boards and all over Facebook.

If this was the prime minister of my home country, the people would feel humiliated before the rest of the world. Talk about losing face, does this even exist here? This was taken while she was attending a meeting of government business.

If I was a Thai citizen, I 'd feel embarrassed especially if I had a hand in voting this person to power. Yingluk clearly is not cut out for the job. It is little wonder that there have been 18 governments overthrown since the late sixties.

I am loving this new obsession with taking photos on phones and putting them out all over the internet. Do you think Barrack Obama or David Cameron would be photographed like this? This is what separates Thai politics from the rest of the civilized world.

Typical paparazzi zooming in on a public figure and freezing one awkward moment in time to cause humiliation.

Possibly.

nothing in the photo is suggesting she sleeps, the posture of the left hand in fact suggests otherwise.

people publishing such photos and suggesting she sleeps need to be slapped across the face a few times

She just needs reading glasses.

True. It actually looks like she's trying to read the small print on the rice pledging paperwork
