Reigntax Posted August 21, 2016 Share Posted August 21, 2016 Best among a bad bunch or compared to that of his cohorts. Hardly an achievement when he is being compared to ministers such as those promoting pokemon to increase tourism. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alive Posted August 21, 2016 Share Posted August 21, 2016 (edited) NIDA has proven that it's not a respectable institution with its pathetic pro-'regime' polls. Regime is in quotes because the actual term I want to use is banned. This is Thailand 2016. Edited August 21, 2016 by Alive Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you say it enough people will eventually question their own understanding of the truth. Thais that don't follow what is happening in the nation or the world are easily influenced. In addition, I wonder if these are also written for the Net history. When someone does research on this time in the future what news will come up? Just as you had to follow other events at the time to really know their truth so it will be with this. And Thailand's 'believed' history is one of great leaders not corrupt dictators who empowered the same cronies and nepots. All this propaganda has value now and in the future when people seek the truth about this time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe the great Orwell said something similar. But we may not mention Orwell in polite Thai society - no, no, no! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have this image of Mr Bean bean and teddy snuggled up in bed but it's actually Jamie and his stuffed Prayuth doll snuggled up in his Prayuth printed bed linen.

Plutojames88 Posted August 22, 2016 Share Posted August 22, 2016 (edited) The horror that is current junta ruling Thailand today is seen for what it is. This is all too late...it's over. Like a wounded wild boar it roars to warn off the hungry forest animals who will consume it. Worthless embarrassing fluff ....ridiculous propaganda that no one believes means the hour of their demise draws nearer. Like all dying beasts they struggling to escape breath , fight , convince themselves there is a way out. When there is none. Silence is deafening . Wounded they try and identify their attackers. Bleeding they maintain they are in control. In the jungle night falls . Slowly. The political jungle is hungry to consume them. They will die. Horrible the deaths awaiting. In gulags the people scratch out a day a score and a time. The jailer will open their cells and release them into a Thailand free of the beast. Time the great healer. Time the great avenger of evil doers. Thailand hears their dying moans as they bleed. The junta is now entering its darkness. These fables are imagined only. Their dream is soon to be a nightmare. The sky will blacken their day Eclipse their evil rule Cast into oblivion and consumed . Edited August 22, 2016 by Plutojames88 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I and I know many others have some reservations about the bona fides of some of those who are supposedly junta fan boys or who bristle at the slightest hint of complaint about LoS.

Winniedapu Posted August 22, 2016 Share Posted August 22, 2016 (edited) NIDA polls, Bangkok Polls and Dusit Polls all lie. They take money to misrepresent the opinions of Thais. They are worthless. Would you take a shameless liar into your home and believe word one of what they say? Probably not unless you are one of the few for whom the lies represent what they choose to think. These pollsters are paid to deceive by a government that is paid to usurp. They can safely be ignored, because what they say cannot be verified and therefore must be assumed to be just smoke and mirrors.

mtls2005 Posted August 22, 2016 Share Posted August 22, 2016 Well, in a country where polls say that 99.3% of the people are "happy", and the PM states that the country is 99% Democratic, what would you expect? Time to round up the 6.32 % and 3.52 % for a quick - zzzzzt- attitude enhancement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spidermike007 Posted August 22, 2016 Share Posted August 22, 2016 (edited) Of course the people are impressed. He has eradicated human trafficking. He has solved the issue of slavery. He has reduced drug consumption. He has raised wages. He has solved the water problems. He has raised the profile of Thailand around the world. He has attracted more foreign investment. His wonderful tourism minister has been able to increase the flow of quality tourists. He has managed to keep Thailand peaceful, and free from major incidents. He has solved the problems in the south. He has boosted economic growth. He has arrested and imprisoned many high ranking police and government officials, who were found to be corrupt. NOT.
