chowny77 Posted January 12, 2017 Share Posted January 12, 2017 I nearly spat my beer out from laughing when I read this! Is this guy a complete moron? The Thai language will never go further than Thailand or people in a community that are Thai. It will be obsolete within 150 years as by then English will be the norm same as Singapore, Malaysia and most other SE Asian countries. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kaorop Posted January 12, 2017 Share Posted January 12, 2017 5 hours ago, Chip Allen said: Prayuth is almost perfect in his delusional Thai-centric, torturing of the truth. One of the most unbelievable statements made this year. RIght up there with his denial that Bangkok tap water can make you sick. You know this proves he's a man of his words, he has been drinking the tap water. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unless, of course PM refers to primative mind, proven mad, pre madona or physco man. Maybe We all should be PM's. I know Im pissing myself!

English is a language, that when spoken correctly is exact, unable to be misinterpreted and not open to misunderstanding. Thai is a language of vagueness, non specific, best fit words.

No media is allowed except in Thai. All labelling s, signs etc can only be in Thai. Break off all relations with any countries that cannot speak Thai. Avoid all products that do not have English labels, price tags, brand names in thai. Thailand and thai is number one! Hurrah! Should also introduce a single gateway to stop anything going in or out.

The option is learn English or get left behind or stay in the dark ages. There is more chance of the national Thai language being Chinese than Thai ever being considered internationally suitable or practiced. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
