How many times...have we read that the farmers were going to finally get paid...and then nothing really happened...?

3,472 times..

My bookmarks are getting filled with links to PTP false promises (AKA Lies).

How and why the rice farmers put up with this is beyond me.

Its time they woke up and realised they've been ridden into poverty by the PTP.

Even if they are paid, then surely they have lost PTP's vote, haven't they???

Why does anyone take these guys at their word?

Thais don't appreciate truth. If they did, there would be more of it. The country is built on lies and deceit.

Don't hold your breath farmers.

Kittirat said only last November the total costs owing on the rice scheme were 80 billion baht.

Question me I can find the interview. I think everyone knows about Kittirat by now though

My parents in Maha Sarakham were told they were well down the list, and might be paid by the end of this year.

They stated directly to my wife that voting the wrong way had been observed, they had learned this by talking to people in the village of Ngua Ba .

Now we get to pay my parents victims of Shiniwatra rice fields scam, 10% for him , nothing for you, rot your rice on the ground

Another Thai initiative brought to you by Thaksin Shinawatra, and the doll with a mouth that open and can read.

Democracy PTP style. Disgusting and immoral.

....I went to a prominent supermarket this last Friday....

...I bought their store brand Hom Mali Rice.....

...100% Certified and Approved by various Government Departments.....

...as soon as I cut open the bag to store it in the rice container...a little black bug caught my eye......

...(Ironically, there was another brand for sale a few baht higher...but because the bags were literally INFLATED with some unknown gas, I passed)...

..I figured the ballooning rice bags were filled with fumigant.....

...now I face a 'double whammy'....was the rice I bought fumigated as well....is that dangerous...are the weevils dangerous...???

..is it safe to buy any rice in Thailand any more...???

(The 'sticker price' of the rice I bought was around 250-280 baht...I cannot recall) (The ballooning rice bags were in a similar price range)
