siliconvalley Posted November 12, 2015 Share Posted November 12, 2015 Wow. Prayut came just in time when most farmers were cutting their rice. Only to get 8 baht per kilo the lowest in 12+ years and when yield per rai was on the order of 7.5 50 kilo bags. Last year 7 rai produced 70+ bags. Now these villagers over 65 years old who suppose to receive a meager 700 baht monthly dole, has not received anything for 3 months. Imagine electric per month is at least 300. Water 300. And now, their harvest for 7 rai at 27,500 for 1 year. Minus chemicals. Minus tilling. And minus reseeding. These poor boogers are depending on their children. Hence, Patong. Prayut, you're the man Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Prayut, you're the man Ah yes the children including my g/f. Thailands unofficial pension plan. The government could and should be doing better for seniors than 700 bahts a month. Forget the subs and the Beijing bullet train and cops handguns and boost seniors pensions to at least poverty level. Oh I forget this is another populist policy that the government is trying to avoid. As you outlined above after electric and water is paid not much left over. What a disgrace.

waldroj Posted November 12, 2015 Share Posted November 12, 2015 It’s been a while since I’ve had anything positive to say about the junta head, but this time I have to say The only way any reconciliation can succeed is if he gets out and meets with as many people as he can, and listens to what they have to say. Then, he still may not make them happy, but at least he just might make them smile. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, it is they that must listen to him. That is not reconciliation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stoneyboy Posted November 12, 2015 Share Posted November 12, 2015 (edited) I do hope the general doesn't contract dengue fever on his travels,that would be a terrible problem for the nation to have to deal with in these times of hardship. I can only imagine the despair of the nation missing out on his Friday night chat show due to ill health.
