Popular Post siampolee Posted October 17, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted October 17, 2014 No chance of course that the wearing of a military uniform might just bring forth preferential treatment or freebies for the wearer of the costume.Or possibly of it being perhaps a cheap ego trip. Look at me I'm (in)famous. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And impersonating a military officer is against the law. Should people NOT report someone for breaking the law? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sick people here. Not really,they will grass each other up ( depending on the pecking order ) which they are taught at school.Nothing to do with being a good Buddist and especially if there is a financial reward involved.I worked for 7 years in Thai schools,but I never was a teacher,only a white face which equates to being a money making commodity for the schools.I knew this,so I eventually went with the flow.Read a teacher forum and you will find numerous,similar stories.

scorecard Posted October 17, 2014 Share Posted October 17, 2014 (edited) <script type='text/javascript'>window.mod_pagespeed_start = Number(new Date());</script> This is how martial law works. You put the fear into everyone and you report anyone you think is disobeying the Junta. Sick people here. It's also true and common sense that the actor should not be walking around outside of the studio in military uniform regardless of who you are (unless you are military). The studio would be well aware this is illegal and unwise. Or perhaps your just suggesting that people should break the law. How opportune of you. Just common sense .....

Sick people here. At any time and regularly we hear about people donning a uniform of police or army to 'impress'. Even before Martial Law was imposed. Somehow that suggests, its you who insinuates we should be fearful. Maybe because with all the rubbish its difficult to find the truth ? PS look up "Captain of Kopenick". It would seem Thai want to make sure that can't happen here Edited October 17, 2014 by rubl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PM Prayut was elected and voted in by the NLA members, an NLA functioning as both parliament and Senate.
