Leaders of the junta meet Gen. Prem Tinsulanonda at his residence yesterday

BANGKOK — In a way, former army chief Udomdej Sitabutr, was cleared of the allegation that he is involved in massive graft, even before an inquiry by the Ministry of Defense yesterday formally let him off the hook.

Just hours before the announcement of the Ministry’s weeks-long investigation into Rajabhakti Park, the monument complex built under Udomdej’s watch and said to be mired in widespread corruption, Udomdej received a glowing endorsement from Gen. Prem Tinsulanonda, the influential former Prime Minister and top advisor to His Majesty the King.

“I believe goodness will bring success to you, Dong,” Gen. Prem told Udomdej at his residence on Wednesday, calling him by his nickname. “I believe you are not that kind of person. I believe you are a good person.”

Prem made the comment when Udomdej and other leaders of the junta were visiting the 95-year-old statesman, to wish him a Happy New Year.

Udomdej later told reporters after the meeting that he also chatted with Prem some more in private, and Prem repeated his confidence that the former army chief was not involved in any wrongdoing in the construction of Rajabhakti Park.

My g/f is a very independent thinker although she does through fear censor herself on some things. She sees through all this BS for what it is but realizes that the sword in this case for now is mightier than the pen. But the pen will have its day patience patience patience. Yes its smiles all around for the glee club in the photo. Kind of rubs in the obvious to the minion multitudes. The digging of a large hole continues.

Here are the salient points.

Article 112 prevents me from posting.

The Urban dictionary defines as follows

dong

1. The penis.
2. The unit of currency of Vietnam. At press time, 1 US dollar is roughly 15000 Vietnamese dong.

Old boys club in that picture. The only thing missing are the big fat stogies.

OK now that we've got that cleared up shall we retire to the lounge for cognac and cigars and compare bank balances.

What was Prem saying in the news the other day about corruption?

Dong. I like it. I will be henceforth known as Dong the Great. Or the Great Dong.

Not just forum rules, but Article 44 could have you incarcerated for " inciting unrest...threat to national security.." and a litany of other charges.

Since Gen Udomdej clearly not is the currency of Vietnam, does that mean, he is a **** ??

You ought to pay more attention. This is fascinating stuff if you know anything about Thailand. Prem is the most powerful figure in Thai politics -- still.
