Future leaders? Ferrari-driving rich kids make fools of themselves in Vice video

BANGKOK: -- The simplistic argument that Thailand's political crisis boils down to a class war between poor, upcountry rice farmers and corrupt Bangkok overlords just got a whole lot more ammunition.

Why? Because two young and mega-wealthy PDRC protest leaders let themselves be filmed gallivanting around Bangkok in a vintage Ferrari, sipping fine cognac at Maggie Choo's and saying things like “he is an assassin” about their bodyguards.

Indeed, the Vice News video “Driving Ferraris with Thai Royalists” has just been released, and the two popped-collar poseurs they profiled – Thanat “Nat” Thanakitamnuay and Victor Kritsanaseranee – sure do a successful job of making themselves look like pompous asses.

Nat, an heir to the Noble Home Development fortune, is already infamous for driving his Porsche 911 into a group of Red Shirt protesters. He discusses the incident at the four minute mark, saying “I was just taking a joyride” before he ran over the protestors.

Some choice soundbites:
“When I had a problem, they [my parents] sent me to a better school. When I have another problem they send me to an even better school. And when I have lots of problems, they send me to the top school.” [read more...]

Thanks to "Vice news" for portraying the typical elite cuddled boys.

As someone still was asking here "Who are the powerful elites?". Well here are two brilliant examples.

These kids truly are idiots and deserve whatever scorn is heaped on them.

That being said, before the pro red TVers start whining about the 'elites' and the 'ammarts' and how the law doesn't apply to them or their kindred blah blah blah blah. Please be reminded that BOTH sides have snotty bratty kids who are above the law. For example, the alcoholic minister whose son shot dead a policeman and got away with it.

Ahh, ok, so this is the PDRC.. I'd come to the next "final push" rally, but I can't find a good spot to park my Bentley.

Crying shame the parents didn't send him to the English boarding school with the motto :

This is exactly why some of the most wealthy men in America give their wealth to charity. Not their kids. Take Bill Gates for example.......I find this behavior disgusting as d most wealthy people. They are not an example we want to portray and are usually not as wealthy as everyone thinks they are...

Sure, is good to remind that too. Chalerm and his sons are abject no more no less than the old ammarts.

Sure the most of the untouchables are to be found in the powerful Bangkok families, don't you convene on this?

Carry on, blaming the Thai moron youngsters and forget what's happening in your own countries on a much bigger scale.

So those two are pictured as PDRC protest leaders now.

Strange that their name is never mentioned as protest leader before this day, not on this forum nor in other media.

Did they just get promoted today, or did Coconuts want to make their story a bit more interesting by throwing in some lies ?

Now, who told you I forget what is happening in my country? And this is a free forum, where comment on topic is still not prohibited, right?

Those two idiots are protest "leaders"? Since when?

And where was the interview with “Moo Ham”, Vorayuth “Boss” Yoovidhya, Praewa and "Oak" . . . I'd have loved to have heard from them too . . .

A stage organizer is someone who makes a living of renting out stages in my book, not sure if that is the same as a protest leader

It would be a disgusting situation if clueless people with no qualifications except being part of a rich family were to become leaders of this country, thank goodness we have groups like the Red Shirts striving to prevent such things.

Yes, that was sarcasm.

I'm just saying if red hypocrites come crying foul about the 'ammarts' and the PRDC because of these rich idiots, they better be sure the people they so lovingly support are clean.

But I convene with you, neither of two sides are clean...

My wife saw me watching and she has never, until now, wiggled her finger at me and said not to post anything on tv. They are watching. Sad but true.sad.png

Just dig a little deeper. Look how many times he is cited on the PDRC facebook page, and you will get to know more.

But that's up to you. A bit of research never hurt anyone.

Trading one bunch of rich corrupt elites with another bunch that is equally as corrupt!

What are these young lads doing. At the current time of political turmoil,surely doing something like this is not the best move. Can they not just enjoy their wealth quietly without rubbing it in the faces of other people.

Surely someone should have pulled them aside and advised them this was not a particularly good idea.

look at Greece! lol
