Srikcir Posted January 9, 2016 Share Posted January 9, 2016 "projects, designed to relieve effects from the drought, as a New Year's gift to the public" Projects funded by the military whose budget is paid by Thai taxpayers - hardly a gift. And considering that military expenditures are not open to public scrutiny, who knows what the real cost is for these projects? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
