ratcatcher Posted February 18, 2015 Share Posted February 18, 2015 does the guy on the left look like someone very famous in his younger days? Yes, I too thought he looked a bit like Buddy Holly, although Buddy tragically never really got out of his younger days did he. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lupatria Posted February 18, 2015 Share Posted February 18, 2015 Huh, that was close. I already thought the dear leader gave order to designers to create some kind of Mao look mandatory for ordinary folks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fatty123 Posted February 18, 2015 Share Posted February 18, 2015 (edited) Is she not an ex heiress now,i thought her father disowned her after her contraversial speech. Not quite ex. It was her uncle, the real power, who was so angry over the damage she did to the brand when she announced that the poor were uneducated and should not have a vote. I expect that there were some NAZI uniforms at the party , in keeping with her political philosophy. These are the types that own Singha? They own Leo too, don't they? Well, I'll be on the Tiger beer when in Thailand from now on. When my pals and I have a sesh on the Singha, it probably increases their share price by 5%, but I'll be letting them know not to touch the stuff as it's owned by Nazis.

ldiablo Posted February 18, 2015 Share Posted February 18, 2015 Did I not read not that long ago that a Thai actor was arrested for wearing a military uniform on the set of a film. Seems like a double standard to me if that is the case. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheDiva Posted February 18, 2015 Share Posted February 18, 2015 (edited) Dressed in military gear. What a party. Geez. That was just the birthday party. The celebratory dinner (after the final, final, final, final push) at the 4 Garcons ( an unpretentious boat noodle shop in Bangkok, I believe) had the same idiots dressed up in camouflage shirts with Burapha Phayak on the back. The Big I am wasn't to impressed about that apparently, especially when regular chats with the Big I am were mentioned.

tx22cb Posted February 18, 2015 Share Posted February 18, 2015 Ahh Chitpas. Typical ignorant to anything outside of your rich little bubble socialite, thinking you know what's best for the nation when you really haven't got a clue, even with your British education. She'd never win on a Dem PM ticket after that 'poor to stupid to vote' line. She is some serious eye candy though, wouldn't mind her face plastered everywhere cos she'd lose anyway 'Yay for the military coup party!' - just read that and let it sink in. Oh, I don't know .... if she ran in a Bangkok constituency, she'd romp home. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rubl Posted February 18, 2015 Share Posted February 18, 2015 I wonder if it would be the same response if it had been a PheuThai party spokespersons birthday party? I can imagine a lot but a Pheu Thai figure with Military Style birthday party? With fireworks provided free of charge by some peaceful UDD supporters? That's really stretching my imagination Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As even students and so wear NAZI attributes at times, it would seem it has nothing to do with political philosophy. Also no info on that in the OP.

Baerboxer Posted February 18, 2015 Share Posted February 18, 2015 "According to Col. Winthai, the military only prosecutes those who don military outfits in an effort to fool others for the purpose of exploitation. The dress-up theme at Chitpas’ party appeared to be for entertainment purposes only, he said." Wouldn't this come under civil law, or perhaps the absolute powers cover everything? Why on earth would impersonating a police/military officer come under civil law? Look at the uniforms - do you think Japanese military still wear WW2 uniforms. You are as bad as the Thaksin owned joke news source that reported this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Srikcir Posted February 19, 2015 Share Posted February 19, 2015 Is she not an ex heiress now,i thought her father disowned her after her contraversial speech. Not quite ex. It was her uncle, the real power, who was so angry over the damage she did to the brand when she announced that the poor were uneducated and should not have a vote. I expect that there were some NAZI uniforms at the party , in keeping with her political philosophy. Sadly, one of the uniforms in the picture is that of a WWII era Japanese soldier. Hardly, the brightest move considering the number of slave workers who died building the railway up country. It's a shame the Thais do not know their own history. The Seri Thai anti-Japanese guerrillas numbered 50,000, most of them recruited from the rural poor and aided by Buddhist monks. They passed vital information to the Allies and took part in commando operations alongside the British. Many of these poor Thais put themselves in grave danger spying on the Japanese and offering armed resistance to them, resulting in thousands being executed by Thailand's occupiers. It seems strange that Thailand doesn't make more of this positive aspect of their WW2 history. The Seri Thai anti-Japanese guerrillas operated without the Thai government's support and hunted down by government armed forces on behalf of its Japanese partners. I don't think Thailand wants to recognize the validity of essentially militias independent from the government military. Might encourage civil war? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ldiablo Posted February 19, 2015 Share Posted February 19, 2015 Ok rubl so I missed the part that about him going to the gas station. I don't see how him being arrested is any different than some elitist not being arrested for wearing a military uniform except for the fact that she probably has more powerful friends than the actor. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
