arrowsdawdle Posted October 5, 2015 Share Posted October 5, 2015 The government agitprop department truly are clueless, churning out stuff like this. What do they hope to gain other than ridicule for the story-poll on Sunday confirming how the people approve-story-poll on Sunday cycle? The poll was not necessary. All that the Thai people had to go on was the propaganda from Ocho. In fact, the poll probably called Thais and told them what opinions are authorized.

arrowsdawdle Posted October 5, 2015 Share Posted October 5, 2015 Half of me hates the fact that I'm even responding to this.....but really how many more 'I Love Everything That Happens' Dusit polls do we have to endure? If the the PM said the earth was flat, guarantee you a Dusit poll would confirm that 96.65785368653% of the population agreed with him Thai earth is different, just like Thai electricity.

GAZZPA Posted October 5, 2015 Share Posted October 5, 2015 What is it exactly that the PM (and others) believe foreigners cannot understand about Thailand. What is this mysterious thing that Thais are referring to when they say "foreigner do not understand Thailand". I think the answer is simple, absolutely nothing. People who are involved in Foreign politics know exactly what is going on in Thailand, including mass corruption in the police (and beyond) to suppression of freedom of speech disguised as "defamation laws". There is no black art in Thai politics, this is just like a teenager saying to their parents "you just dont know what its like to be me at my age" Dear oh dear, what a mess.

elgordo38 Posted October 5, 2015 Share Posted October 5, 2015 I asked my Thai teacher today and she had no clue he went to the UN and this is a well educated and travelled Thai Thais, generally, are "gob nai kala" Asked the expert on this my Thai g/f. Her answer was people are basically not interested in the machinations of our dear leader. Thai's like most of the people in the world just basically want to be left alone. Politicians want us isolated and living in fear easier to control. Paranoia. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are so right: it's understandable that kids caught with their fingers in the biscuit tin say such silly things, but what gets me are our own who support this myth: "I'll never understand the logic..." That's just making excuses for them to get away with BSing us. Obfuscation and avoidance of responsibility is all it is and foreigners shouldn't stand for it.

steven100 Posted October 5, 2015 Share Posted October 5, 2015 (edited) I salute the honorable PM Khun Prayuth Chan o cha ..... the Thai people salute you. 83.02 percent said as result of the Thailand’s participation in the UNGA, the international community was able to understand the kingdom better. 13.51 percent said the opportunity allowed the Thai leader to build relationship with foreign counterparts . 66.04 percent said the opportunity has allowed the country to move forward and be more competitive. I have always maintained that this government is best for Thailand given the opposing fractions who just want to create insecurity. Thailand is moving forward to build a better and more prosperous nation. Not forgetting that when the General Prayuth took over the country was in a mess due to instability within the predecessor controversial PM's government, the mismanaged rice scheme being just one example that cost the country billions ...... The country and the Thai people were subjected to daily security concerns with shootings and mayhem by opposing fractions, street protests that blocked major intersections which caused loss off revenue for many Thai companies that relied on daily product delivery. You cannot hide facts, this is substantial evidence that the PM and his hard work to push Thailand ahead, increase stability and increase foreign investment is paying off. Thailand will continue to become more proficient and developed country with the planned China high speed rail project, energy projects are planned and further rail and BTS extensions. Following the PM's visit to the US the UNGA and President Obama have seen what Thailand is doing to reinstall trust and confidence in the Thai economy, and further strengthen the Thai-US relationship.

Muirton Posted October 5, 2015 Share Posted October 5, 2015 Hilarious. There was a poll the other day which reflected badly on the Junta and you people were all over it saying how it proved how bad they really are. Now we have one saying something positive and you are all over it saying how it is all lies and propaganda. Your opinions are truly priceless. And worthless. "There was a poll the other day ...".

A fantastic piece of political satire until I read your response that follows: "Squeegee, just because you don't agree with current government in power doesn't mean everyone else feels the same."

emilymat Posted October 5, 2015 Share Posted October 5, 2015 When I read these articles on polls I feel sad for Thailand. The constant references to 'image' and 'understanding of Thailand' demonstrate to me a rather pathetic insecurity among the top people. Why don't they just understand that it's not possible to be loved by everyone. Over 100 world leaders there, why should the General have stood out inany specific way.? I feel pretty swithced on politically on UK matters, but I would be hard pressed to give a definitive answer if someone polled me on, say, whether or not Cameron's image had been a success at the latest European summit on refugees. Please please, no more polls like this. They are so predictable and meaninglessand I'm not quie sure who the audience is they are trying to impress.

GinBoy2 Posted October 7, 2015 Share Posted October 7, 2015 I have no problem with people holding differing views to mine. However when anyone, myself included make claims relating to hard facts they should be prepared to present those facts.
