chainarong Posted May 31, 2016 Share Posted May 31, 2016 Suu Kyi and President Htin are of interest, however the despots that fill the last line of the article one could do without , I seen Suu Kyi on OZ SBS at a forum and she impressed greatly with her depth of knowledge and manner ,as she described being under house detention and the up coming Democratic elections you would have to go along way to get a better leader , unfortunately she meets an Un- elected one in Prayut , however , Suu Kyi has dealt with these bozo's before and look who one..........................................

eliotness Posted May 31, 2016 Share Posted May 31, 2016 It will be interesting to know just who she will actually meet during her visit and of course the Thai press releases after the visit will be a source of much comment on this forum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brer Fox Posted May 31, 2016 Share Posted May 31, 2016 How I envy 53-year-old American, John Yettaw who in 2009 used a pair of homemade flippers to swim across a lake to Aung San Suu Kyi's house where he allegedly stayed between May 3 and May 5.

Much better she meets Prayuth than the previous PM, a puppet of her brother, a fugitive criminal! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I doubt she'll bother meeting any disgraced former pretend PM's. She's more clued up than the brainless German federalists who nipped over for a nice jaunt on EU taxpayers expenses.

You clearly have not the remotest understanding of ASSK's thinking.I would be astonished if she did not meet Yingluck and express solidarity with democratic principles .More to the point why should someone who has been imprisoned by military tyrants want to spend more time with this type beyond what is diplomatically necessary?
