TKDfella Posted March 5, 2016 Share Posted March 5, 2016 I don't take much notice of this guy anymore. He is full of 'I instructed (someone/group...) to do so and so' 'I have done (this & that) for the country...' 'I told the G77 blah blah...' but when it come to taking the responsibility for something not going his way it's 'point the time'. So I comment here just on the objective side. He says Thais must do this and that to eliminate corruption but Mr. PM nearly all countries suffer from corruption with varying degrees. I'm sure we've all seen it in our homeland; a new regulation, say Tax for example, is signed by a government and immediately some people will do their utmost to get around it by legal or illegal means. So Mr. PM let the corruption bit go because the best you can do is fight it but my guess is it'll still be around in Thailand (or elsewhere) for many years to come.

heybruce Posted March 5, 2016 Share Posted March 5, 2016 come on Baerboxer tell us what a wonderful speech it was as djjamie seems to have gone quiet or are you the same person? Nope - your're wrong again. But as usual, that's not really surprising. We all know that any politician here would do absolutely anything, has many have proven, to get their greedy grimy hands on the trough. The one in power sees it as sabotage whereas the one trying to regain power sees it as clever tricks. Once the positions are reversed then so are the views. Do you remember various puppets in the last regime always claiming someone, some group, some NGO or some mysterious "third hand" was out to get them and sabotaging their good intentions? Your memory is somewhat selective so maybe not. You keep on believing in Shin fairy land if it makes you happy. Baerboxer arrives with his traditional "But, but, but...Thaksin!" It's his answer to every criticism of the junta. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He must be doing something right when the corrupt are up in arms. Those words don't sit well with Prayuth. He has Article 44 power, he can mandate transparency and aggressively prosecute corruption, but chooses not to. One suspects it would incriminate too many cronies, family members and himself. As to practicing good governance, I think there is an issue with competence preventing junta from governing in such a manner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

heybruce Posted March 5, 2016 Share Posted March 5, 2016 "The prime minister maintained that the National Council for Peace and Order wanted to make sure that the next government would commit itself in performing what the people have wanted – that the next government is transparent, not corrupt and practice good governance." Interesting that transparency, ending corruption and good governance are all left for the next government, even though this government has Article 44 power and answers to no one--it can govern any way it wants. Interesting, but not surprising. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Couldn't be 22 coups could it? Well an 'democratically elected elite type a decade ago wasn't much into 'educating the masses' either. "look I give you free calendars with my sister's image' doesn't really help much. Letting a Minister of Education starting his policy with a quote from a criminal fugitive doesn't do much in educating. Unless you want to stress 'the rich and elite are different'. So, no wonder PM Prayut accuses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rubl Posted March 5, 2016 Share Posted March 5, 2016 "Without naming names, Prime Minister Prayut Chan-ocha accused a group of people in attempting to destroy their motherland, reject Thai legal process and encouraging foreign organizations and governments to put pressure on Thailand." With Thaksin's calendar, Ms. Yingluck's invitation to come to Brussels and many other 'incidents', I guess PM Prayuth is right. Calendars and an invitation to Brussels is an attempt to destroy the motherland? I doubt it. Well that's your opinion. Others see machinations in the back. A getting older Amply Rich guy getting desperate as well. Close to eight years ago he jumped bail and still not being able to return in triumph. His clone asked to show responsibility and accountability. His egged on Pheu Thai members not seen as 'poor, hunted down defenders of democracy'. Still big money helps to get 'objective' organisations to question the current Thai government. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OK, so the mature elite will govern for the immature Thais, right? Tell me, are they all as mature as Uncle Too? Well, the 'immature elite' run by their criminal fugitive head abroad will not govern and till now the UN is not interested in rebuilding Thai society over a twenty year occupation period.

An inconvenient truth I guess? BTW democracy doesn't equate with elections. Elections are but a part of democracy. Strictly speaking if everyone knew what to do there might not even be a need for elections as responsible people would take the jobs fit for them and execute as should be.
