EC's Somchai defends appointment of son as assistant secretary

Featured Replies

This article really screams out for a deservedly snide response, however I will restrain myself (on this occasion).

I will make one positive observation about the EC though, it is reported in this article that at least Thanis Sriprathet is a resourceful person!

Please dont, restrain that is, its what makes these thread worth reading, always good for a laugh.

Sad thing is, I'm sure there are many many Thais with the same contempt and ability to mock, but are without a voice.

I would suggest and recommend those that so quickly jump on their bandwagon of negativity make a basis comparison of alleged nepotisim etc in the countries of their own origin. And also to compare the qualifications of those same countries universities being accepted globally.

In light of that result I would welcome them come again with the comparative result having applied the same scornfull criteria.

Just for the entertainment of it I have purchased 3 ( Verifiable) degrees from the USA. The are wall mounted between the art of my children.

My other genuine qualification would shame the majority of you negativist superiorist psuedo colonialist anal wimps.

" By the looks of him" ? Is a valid criteria for rejection?

Electoral charts printed under the influence of which regime?

..

Those whose believed dedicated role is to deride without concern of actual involvment are the same as children testing the environment.

But as adults who never have acheived departure from diaper dependance it demonstrates the sickness of the world in general !

Have a "happy" new year being the same as the last one.........oneinists.laugh.png

Well dear sir,

We could go thru every country in the worlds nepotism first and then get to Thailand ,

but, well, you know,

this is a Thai centric forum, so pointing out that these thing happen elsewhere is pointless, we know it does, but "our" concern lies here.

Your loyal colonial imperial fascist.

I cannot defer.. If you single out Thailand with contempt in ignoration of "superior" location then it would make you the fascist no?

I am no colonial , imperialist, or fascist. I just disagree with comparatives with nothing more valid.wai.gif

Thanis Sriprathet, a resourceful person attached to the EC, said each EC member has the right to appoint people he trusts to work for him and the appointees are entitled to a monthly payment. If that EC member is no longer in the position, the persons he has appointed will also be out of job, he added.

How about that factoid for a perfect inbuilt clan based purchasing of allegiance and support..

Thailand will never move forward

No need. If it slides backwards, but at an angle, it will eventually come fill circle.clap2.gif

I have a feeling Somchai would be relieved to know this topic has been derailed into a debate about nothing to do with him !smile.png

I consider a degree from Bangkok University the same as no degree at all.

I would rate him lower than someone from Chulalongkorn or Thammasat or someone with more experience. He is telling me that his son was the only one that applied for the job?

Well - it was only advertised on their kitchen wall....

I can not understand Somchai.
If I could choose two assistants, I can assure that that definitely no would be family members.
I would choose 2 women, between 20-30 years old, slim, around 160 – 170 cm tall, with long legs and long hair.
There education is secondary; much more important is the motivation to go to work and to have fresh assistants which can blow away the daily grind.

It's always good to separate work and family.

Yeah....you're wrong. You mention the US. Most government organizations in the US have explicit policies regarding hiring preferences and nepotism. Exceptions are few and far between.

Regarding your "purchased" degrees, congratulations on your matriculation from Harvard College of Taxidermy.

Everything is above board as I shamelessly admit to invoking nepotism full out. Because I can.
