webfact Posted November 18, 2015 Share Posted November 18, 2015 Govt to announce its achievementsTHE NATION BANGKOK: -- THE achievements of the Prayut government during its first year in office will be announced to the public at a three-day event to be held on December 21, 23 and 24 at Government House, PM's Office Minister Suwaphan Tanyuvardhana said yesterday.He said the first day will feature exhibitions by various ministries and departments, and Prime Minister Prayut Chan-o-cha and his deputies will announce the achievements of ministries under their supervision. A summary in Thai and English will also be distributed to the National Legislative Assembly, the media and members of the public.Suwaphan said the committee expediting the implementation of government policies and reform plans must act as a coordinator to push for reforms with six newly set-up reform steering committees that the Cabinet appointed on Tuesday.According to Prayut, the six panels will direct policies to local organisations and cooperate with the Interior Ministry. The local organisations, named as "pracha rat", include sheriffs and village headmen, with district chiefs expected to play an increasing role in assisting provincial governors.The Cabinet had earlier resolved that every ministry should draw up the second-stage operation by splitting into four periods. The meeting resolved that the secretary of the committee create a framework for every ministry in line with reform plans and submit it to the meeting before December 14.Meanwhile, National Reform Steering Assembly (NRSA) spokesman Apichart Jongsakul said the NRSA had come up with new guidelines on media reform, including online media, to be used together with the National Reform Council (NRC)'s guidelines.The NRC had earlier mapped out guidelines for the media and state agencies related to the media to follow: Liberty comes with responsibility; prevention of media intervention; and establishment of efficient media control.For online media, the NRSA wants to stop the dissemination of information that is unethical, distorted and instigates social turmoil. The NRSA believes the problems stem from lax law enforcement and technology; control mechanism of the Internet is with the private sector; the government policy to expand Internet use without prevention and control policies.The NRSA appointed three subcommittees on media reform - a subcommittee on print media headed by Prapa Hetrakul; a subcommittee on radio, television and telecommunications, led by Air Chief Marshal Kanit Suwannate; a subcommittee on online media, headed by Pol Maj-General Pisit Paoin.Source: http://www.nationmultimedia.com/politics/Govt-to-announce-its-achievements-30273264.html-- The Nation 2015-11-19 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaltsc Posted November 18, 2015 Share Posted November 18, 2015 (edited) "THE achievements of the Prayut government during its first year in office will be announced to the public..." That should be as short as the list of "Thai war heroes" or "Ethical politicians over the past 20 years".

BigBadGeordie Posted November 18, 2015 Share Posted November 18, 2015 So the single gateway is not dead, "the NRSA wants to stop the dissemination of information that is unethical, distorted and instigates social turmoil". The NRSA continues that it believes the problems stem from, amongst other causes, the fact that the " control mechanisms of the internet is with the private sector".

waldroj Posted November 19, 2015 Share Posted November 19, 2015 The announcement of their first-years achievements, like the achievements themselves (the real ones, not the propaganda), is happening late, at least six months after the actual anniversary. A three-day outpouring of propaganda, with very little to show of reform or reconciliation. While the junta head may strut around like a modern-day Napoleon, and spruke about "his" achievements, there seems to be very little that actually has been done for the benefit of the people! That really is some achievement! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RidgeRunner Posted November 19, 2015 Share Posted November 19, 2015 Could be a big list of all their political enemies that they have ruined, jailed, forced overseas or conveniently had an accident. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laughing Gravy Posted November 19, 2015 Share Posted November 19, 2015 I will add to the list. Very good at putting false polls out telling everyone how happy people are. Continually changing the date for a democratic election. Patting itself on the back for good work, which isn't done. Such as the war on corruption Telling the people more tourist are coming than ever before. Taking freedoms away. eg the internet. I could go on.

BlindMagician Posted November 19, 2015 Share Posted November 19, 2015 List of lists of achievements: 1. List of people who mysteriously died, or not so mysteriously killed. 2. List of measures to kill off free speech. 3. List of measures to kill off democracy. 4. List of measures to kill off human rights. 5. ...sigh Not looking so jovial. These military types seem quite good at something though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
