marcusd Posted August 28, 2014 Share Posted August 28, 2014 (edited) I could not agree more. Under the previous regime changes were DAILY making business here troublesome and full of payouts for corrupt officials. now this is common in Asia but getting to such a high number in the percentage stakes was too much. Now things are moving again and there are always TWEAKS that need to be made. I am all for seeing what hs been proposed and I congratulate the general on his birthday! But my wishes pale to those before me as I am but a speck in the ocean on this earth. So all of you who come after demonising this General for trying to get things done, remember you too are nothing in the scheme of things. This Japanese businessman is significant and this meeting symbolises that THAILAND MEANS business. i am all for it as this is a wonderful country with wonderful people despite the few negatives - it is still a great place or we would not be here.

Dah fahrang Posted August 29, 2014 Share Posted August 29, 2014 For Heaven's sake! A non-story if ever there was one. I see it made filled a quarter front page of today's Thai Rath. Can we look forward to stories about what the general had for his lunch, what toothpaste he uses, and which soap operas he (doesn't) watch? I suppose with all real news being stifled, gagged or heavily censored, we must get used to this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LOL - You should go line up to be the next for photo opportunity. I guess in one year you will be very quiet as nothing really got done. It's just photo opportunities.
