beautifulthailand99 Posted June 14, 2014 Share Posted June 14, 2014 (edited) The song “Return happiness to the people” is being played throughout the days before TV announcement or hourly news on the radio, broadcasting the message from the army: “All we ask of you is to trust and have faith in us The land will be good soon Let us return happiness to you, the people” Edited June 14, 2014 by beautifulthailand99 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beautifulthailand99 Posted June 16, 2014 Author Share Posted June 16, 2014 The Army Video unit is busy churning out patriotism - here's another one and a note to farangs to stand up straight and stop what you are doing when the National Anthem comes on.

beautifulthailand99 Posted July 17, 2014 Author Share Posted July 17, 2014 (edited) The army's happiness song now with English subtitles so the farang's can get a bit of the happiness. Maybe that's what Thai Visa Forum needs is a coup to deal with troublemakers once and for all. http://youtu.be/1-xtWCJT3oQ Edited July 17, 2014 by beautifulthailand99 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
piersbeckett Posted July 19, 2014 Share Posted July 19, 2014 (edited) Well I suppose settling the seemingly insuperable insurgence problems in the muslim dominated, deep south, successfully instilling throughout the kingdom respect for the rule of law, eliminating corruption starting from the top to show an example and legitimise the necessarily resultant hard-hitting reforms in respect of tax collection, training, buying-in and remunerating teachers commensurate with their significance as well as broadening the education syllabus, and eliminating organised crime, might, eventually lead to the majority of the population having their happiness returned to them or it might not. What if it lead to the majority of people ceasing to enjoy life as much as they previously had, stress levels increasing, frustration and dis-satisfaction abounding, personal freedoms diminishing and cynicism setting in? Personally, I agree (with the junta) that something has to be done but to avoid the baby going out with the bath water, I believe they must attack the real bad boys and the real threats to the prosperity/happiness of the kingdom.
