"... continue work of predecessor." I am sure we will all sleep better tonight knowing this.

Does that mean he will be the next military junta leader and illegal PM.

Well yes, we established some time ago that the rights freedoms and futures of the Thai people can go to hell in a handcart as long as you can " still do business "!

Sounds like the mantra for the upcoming elections. Play follow the leader maybe even install the leader in a legal sense rather than a article 44 winner take all.

We can probably look forward to those words a lot in the next 20 years of the master plan.

Teamwork and prioritising....novel.

 

So the obedience-time plot curve had begun. Newly appointed grateful, lots of lowered head, krabs, loyal public statements, lay it on thick, for maximum show. Give it time, and it will wane, but will he or won't he do the dip...nose dive the obedience-time rating, ending in who knows what...one to watch folks.

So, the new Army Commander is instructed to maintain the Nation's troops and to deal with the Southern Insurgency.  I wonder what he expected he would have to do?  Oh I forgot, lead somewhat pointless raiding parties on the nation's dens of iniquity in Bangkok, Pattaya and Phuket, since the police appear to be reluctant to do it themselves, for some unknown reason.
