Please add one more, non Thai, to the 63.1%

Happy Songkran, Prime Minister

I'm sure there are a lot of folk who would like

to toss a bucket of water over him . . .

Sprinkle?

It seems some would prefer to tinkle on him.

Stories such as these are real bolts from the blue, aren't they? Whoever saw that coming, he yawned..

How does the mad Greek get to post first so often? Is his life so devoid of reality he streams this site 24/7? May go along way in explaining his views. He must be happy that his commie Greek mates and the Gen/PM share the same new Russian sponsor.........

"Right" throw water on him at your own peril article 44 comes to mind here.

It could be that the Thai people know more about the problems facing Thailand, and the approve the steps that Khun Prayut is taking to remedy them, than a few sad, interfering falang who have to express their worthless opinions on this forum whenever any mention is made of this Government

Commenting is interfering now, is it? No wonder you are in bed with the current administration. Why don't you do yourself a favour and just not read news threads - stick to authorised Thai media if hagiographies are your thing..

...but of course!

...OR, it could be, that only positive polls, in favor of Mr. P and the current government are allowed?!

...maybe...

He is a "like" collector, first posts on most threads normally get the most "likes"

Any topic, any sub forum will do...............Costas will be there fishing................

I cringe every time i read one of these stories.

Some little PR company, on the elites bankroll, is actually sitting in an office putting together these stories as they think they succeed in bolstering the Juntas legitimacy.

It`s weird because some of the PR/Media/Ad agencies I work with in Bangkok are outstanding.

Remember your hero's comment from yesterday:

>>After the Cabinet meeting yesterday at Government House, Prayut said he was not worried about domestic acceptance of the new constitution, <<

We are lucky enough to still have this forum to express (most of) our opinions, where as the Thai people brave enough to criticize on social media are "invited" to camps and/or charged with LM!!

I'm sure there are a lot of folk who would like

to toss a bucket of water over him . . .

I wouldn't be so sure about the water...

Crawlers !

Another survey by the every popular propaganda gov.

Please add one more, non Thai, to the 63.1%

Happy Songkran, Prime Minister

Did you already mount metal plates to your sneakers so they make a nice sound when you click your heels?

Crawlers !

...or is it because we are the ones who missed his last order?

Please add one more, non Thai, to the 63.1%

If you want to pay him respect, you'll have to take your head out of his a$$ first!

You bring tears to my eyes.

Nice to be in the majority, for once. What eight point ban?

Would prefergetting yingluck all wet ... seems to have more of an appeal

I like to read the news threads, but I dislike the childish comments on here by people who think they are so clever by rudely criticizing the administration, no matter what it does.

You and a few others would never admit to this government doing anything good because your pride would not allow it.

Actually I would prefer that no comments are allowed in the News section.

If people wish to trade insults about politics they should do it the the Bar forum which I never visit!

No!

Wrong!

I am not admitting, this government doing anything good, because I have not seen it, doing anything good!

But if you do...show me, please!

I am sure the list was compiled in a most democratic manner.

Stories such as these are real bolts from the blue, aren't they? Whoever saw that coming, he yawned..

yup, another poll with the magic number of around 1200 being polled (allegedly) People can really only vote for him on this as he's banned all other politicians!

Banning comments from the news section eh?

I appreciate that you are an enthusiast for the Junta, and no doubt approve wholeheartedly of its attempts to stiffle dissent, but do you really want their repression of freedom of speech to be mirrored here?

Actually, on reflection, I suppose that is exactly what you would like!
