Lite Beer Posted February 18, 2015 Share Posted February 18, 2015 PM rules out cabinet reshuffle saying he is satisfied with its performance BANGKOK: -- Prime Minister Prayut Chan-ocha said Wednesday that he had no intention to shake up his cabinet as he was satisfied with its performance for the past six months. He pointed out that the most tangible achievement of his government was that it managed to prevent the country from collapse as the country was once on the brink of collapse.The prime minister said that there are other things which are far more important than cabinet reshuffle that still need to be done. He defended all the ministries saying that they had tirelessly done their jobs and yet the media has kept picking on them.He asked the media to question the previous governments about why they had to leave all the problems for his government to tackle.

kalbo123 Posted February 18, 2015 Share Posted February 18, 2015 He asked the media to question the previous governments about why they had to leave all the problems for his government to tackle. I thought that former politicians can not do any statements under the martial law? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post ldiablo Posted February 18, 2015 Popular Post Share Posted February 18, 2015 Give me a break. What a lame ass comment. If the military had done what it is intented to do which is protect the country and the government and not just support the elite in bangkok Thailand wouldn't be where it is today. The country was far from collapse and if you consider clearing street vendors of their livelihood and creating dumb bicycle lanes among other ridiculous taska accomplishments than congratulations on your tireless work. And ask the previous government why they had to leave, holy shit dude, they left because of a word called a coup which you and your friend Suthep masterminded from the beginnong or have you forgotten that already. Your statements get more insane by the day. And finally why would he want to reshuffle his hand picked cabinet of puppets. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm still wondering about the five reshuffles Ms. Yingluck did. All hand-picked on knowledge, capabilities, potential and suitability. Maybe she just wanted to give all her talented fellow Pheu Thai MPs and members a chance to prove themselves, or couldn't she make up her mind? Maybe PM Prayut has somewhat less of those talented people to choose from? On the other hand why reshuffle just for the fun of it? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Military are doing what they are by way of Thai Law and Statue of the Thai Martial Law Act which is protect the country. You should try updating yourself with Thai Law before you run off with such garbage or assuming that all countries Statues are exactly the same. The country was far from collapse? Who is making the lame ass comments? You people should try and read what is written rather than as usual spout of your usual dribble in your haste to be negative flat-earthers and you would have appreciated that there is a huge difference between "why they had to leave" and "why they had to leave all the problems". And are the Chiang Mai elite excused or do they only exist in Bangkok? I refer to Rubi in regards to the cabinet reshuffle but I guess the article writer was that used to the Shinawatra reward to their supporters by having their turn at the trough to milk that Ministry that they assumed the same was to continue and is still struggling to realise there is a moral leader in town who's actually got some balls.

Tell me why the coup has been denounced as illegitimate by the entire Western community including the UN? Come out of your dream world. No matter how bad the last government was, two wrongs have never made a right. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tape Posted February 18, 2015 Share Posted February 18, 2015 why would he want to reshuffle his hand picked cabinet of puppets. Yingluck changed her hand picked cabinet of puppets at an alarming pace with proportionally more Cabinet reshuffles than any other PM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
