PM blessed for 16 years in office
The Nation

MAHA SARAKHAM: -- Prime Minister Yingluck Shinawatra on Monday received a blessing from Phrakhru Anurak Putthamonthon, the abbot of Phutthamonthon Temple in Maha Sarakham.

While she and some ministers paid a respect to the abbot, he said she still has public supports and wished that all her wishes come true.

He also wished that she remained the prime minister for as long as 16 years.

Yingluck’s brother, Thaksin, once visited the temple which features a standing Buddha image grown inside a Bodhi tree.

Hahahha good luck! I'm pretty sure your brother got the same blessing also!

Her brother will have kittens when he hears this!

Oh Buddha! No! 2 years has been too long already

Then it must be true.

Little Yingy amazes us again.

I wonder to what pressure they pump her head in the morning --- 32 PSI?

I'll drink to that.

Long may she reign!

Viva la rouges!

So buddism/religion/ hypocrisy with politics in Thailand is up for discussion now here?We can have a"field day"

I doubt she will last out the year....

Blessed are the weak err sorry the meek.

Don't be so negative about the PM!, She's doing a good job and the people love her.

Maybe some enterprising individual should mass produce red plastic bracelets with "I love the PM" engraved.

Now that would be a money earner!

Did she get the winning lottery number tickets at the

same time.

regards Worgeordie

How much did she have to donate for that one?

Remain as PM for 16 years ? I hope nobody tells the military about this.

What utter rubbish !

Did she get some money-off shopping-vouchers too ?

Or black ones inscribed " I love Hitler "

Typical Nation sensationalize of the head lines.

Typical Thai Visa responses. Don't read the article just reply to the headline.

The article really said.

"He also wished that she remained the prime minister for as long as 16 years"

At the rate the PTP scam the coffers they had better get back up printers

ready at the mint if she lasts for 16 years

I have rushed out and put B10,000 on 16 in the next lottery. I reckon 100 to 1 is better odds than Yingluk remaining PM.

To which she answered,

"Do I have to, or can I pay you a bit more to change it"....

Gives a whole different meaning to "paid her respects"...

Well, with the current constitution we would be talking about 8 + 'gap' + 8 more years to make a total of 16.

Constitution 2007

Section 171. The King appoints the Prime Minister and not more than thirty-five other Ministers to constitute the Council of Ministers having the duty to carry out the administration of State affairs with collective accountability.

The Prime Minister must be a member of the House of Representatives appointed under section 172.

The President of the House of Representatives shall countersign the Royal Command appointing the Prime Minister.

The Prime Minister shall not hold office for more than eight consecutive years.

Not grown much.

And the Nazi empire would last a thousand years.

Hopefully this one is just as accurate.

I would short that stock
