Maybe Prayut should use Article 44 on Mother Nature who is responsible for droughts and floods, not the people. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brer Fox Posted November 19, 2016 Share Posted November 19, 2016 The PM is looking a bit tired and overworked these days. Bags and rings around the eyes are a sure sign. If he means he is going to push ahead with coal fired power stations good on him. Can't expect the wheels of industry to keep turning on renewable intermittent power from solar panels.
