i would find the violent wirus far more of a concern

Just add it to list of things to consider, critical thinking, stopping nepotism and corruption, adressing human rights issues, slavery, human trafficking, illegal fishing, wrongful imprisonment...stop me if you heard all before. Also feel free to add anything I have left off the Juntas list of things to "consider". Fycks sake.

Or we could consider getting a committee to consider if its really worth considering all these things we say we are going to consider, considering at the end of the day we are going to do <deleted> all about any of them

It is what is called timely management of problem issues.
As and when a problem occurs, people start discussing it.

What are you complaining about?

As far as the Violence Virus is concerned, since the most glorious TeeVee personalities are quite violent (think Donald Duck, Tom and Jerry or most any computer game), and the TeeVee generation does not get counterbalance of to mention an, albeit far fetched, example reading a book with actual text and sentences in it or a discussion with educators about morals and values, my conclusion is that it is not a virus but a way of behaviour instilled into children by parents that allow for daily visual exposure to the most gore glorified violence.

Take the entire government, armed forces and civil service up to the Bhumiphol dam, give them plenty of free Chang and make them piss in it. That should greatly increase the amount of liquid. Its just a pity its not hot air they are short of!

the solution to farmer’s debt issue

Thus far, the Yingluck Prayut government's solution has been to provide higher than market prices for agricultural commodities, cash grants and subsidies, low interest loans, and debt forgiveness. But it seems the public still remains concerned.

Why would that be? Maybe because the government is not following a policy of a sustainable agricultural economy but rather a policy of aimless misunderstanding.
