Perhaps he had to get some shopping in.

Isn't there a Thai equivalent of what happened in the officer class in the old British Raj when a gentleman disgraced himself in some way?

A brother officer would say to him "come along old friend do your duty and end it like a gentleman".He would be courteously escorted to the library where a loaded revolver and a bottle of decent malt would be found.Then the doors would be gently closed until it became extremely clear they could be opened again.

I'm guessing the Thai equivalent is unloading a full clip at the gathered journalists.

Not only in the British Raj, but in any country were honour and integrity are inviolate.

Judging from what I've read in the English press about this 1.5million Baht 4 hour meeting, I'd probably not want to talk to the press either!

Not quite right. It should be 1.5 M Bt tax payer money for 20 seconds unproductive meeting.

Tourism & Sport...

In 20 seconds was the word "Bridge" mentioned???

Thai Soldiers look pretty in pink. The enemy would probably die laughing when they see this lot comming over the hill throwing high heels.

Yes that's right, it is a piece of string.

Now isn't it time you went for a lay down.

....and he was also threatening to hold his breath, until journalists would stop asking him questions....coffee1.gif

The Librarian used to get really hacked off with bits of brains splattered all over the books...

<deleted> blink.png . Prem has an heir apparent.

He should stay in hiding.

He is an embarrassment to Thailand.

I don't know what's worse, this barbarian, or the pathetic sycophants laughing...

It is always a good thing for everyone involved, when he shuns reporters. He always shoots himself in the foot, whenever he opens his mouth. So, better if he does not. He does not have much to say anyway, and most of what he says is quite disingenuous, so why listen?

Minority-------what sort of crazy propaganda is that ??? it's so outrageous your on an agenda with the MINORITY on TVF---FACT

You have the gall to talk about AMNESTY it was that that brought the downfall of the SHIN undemocratically run government.....and VIOLENT uprising----someone telling OTT porky pies deserves any retribution here in Thailand---SHAME

I do agree some items you mentioned are in place---BUT they are there because of extremists like you with your slagging of the said government... criticise but your little crowd on here should not go overboard as you do. point out some things that are so very harsh --as I do. Your OTT criticism is too extreme. and it shows.

Yes, Suthep's yellow mob were/are certainly a minority. They knew they had to violently, yes violently obstruct the election as they would lose like they have time & time again.

Whenever Suthep's mob was mentioned, I can't help link him to the largest uniform mob that will mow down their own people to achieve their agenda. To think of it, Suthep made no secret of the pact.

I have no agenda

and you have no more meds, either.

Didums. Poor Prayuth , he's thrown his rattle out of the pram and is too juvenile to retrieve it himself.

Could be that he is in the middle of composing his next superhit song for thai democracy and wants no distraction?

Compare mobs;

1. Supported by the army

2. Shot by the army

Sums it up really.

"Prime Minister General Prayut Chan-o-cha appeared and spoke only briefly Tuesday after the Cabinet's weekly meeting, after throwing a tantrum and receiving heavy criticism last week."

"Wissanu said that from now on deputy prime ministers would take turn to do the job substituting Prayut in speaking to the media."

"The deputy prime minister also said it was a better idea because deputy PMs and ministers have more details to share with the press than the PM who could only give the big picture." whistling.gif

It's not as though the Junta's attitude to press scrutiny is doing much for the country's reputation.

The expression used in the referenced article ie 'knuckle dragging' is so perfectly descriptive I am rather irritated I didn't think of it myself.

OMG, second paragraph of that article is so LM material......

Don't "like" it...

Edit: OMG, I read past the 2nd paragraph... That might be worth a green screen soon....

Then take three Chinese submarines at a billion dollars before bedtime and you’ll feel much better.

LOL
