All that exercising has done him no good at all, too much blood in his muscles, not enough in his brain. There must be many Thai intellectuals now who are squirming with embarrassment.

only if the rest of the world's population dies of some disease that doesn't infect Thailand.

Rediculous statement :passifier: The only English speakers outside of some educated professionals and some BKK businessmen are Bargirls. Thailand is on the back foot in ASEAN because of poor English speaking. 

Comments like this will not progress Thailand. If it wasn't for all the Japanese investment here Thailand would be in a sorry state. 

They have tourism and after the release of all those pokemons by the prayuth government it is booming.

Dr. No: [about his aquarium] The glass is convex, 10 inches thick, which accounts for the magnifying effect.

Dr. No: It depends, Mr. Bond, on which side of the glass you are.

Yeah, you sure got a point there ... i mean obviously Dear Leader is still breathing but heaven knows how far up he might have pushed his tolerance already.

Can't be just some low quality Snickelfritz for certain, not with this kind of delirious effects, hehe ...

People were asking awkward questions about the high speed railway so this is to deflect everyone's attention away from the railway.

No,  sir, surely any Thai intellectuals have more to worry about right now than feeling embarrassed.

 

Knock, knock!

Prayuth gave an address encouraging children to embrace their language

So much for Thais competently learning the language of international business. Perhaps the PM is hopeful that Asean will adopt Thai as its common language ...

I'm sorry, but, "huh!".

 

English is spoken all over the world as first, second and even third languages.

 

Thai is spoken in, well, Thailand.

 

Our illustrious leader has finally lost the plot.

 

<deleted>......this guy is deluded, hallucinating he is losing, it needs to check out his head. After English is maybe Mandarin

I have had 3 wives and none had money and when it was divorce time their lawyer informed me that they had none and they wanted a cut. Geeze.

  Well, yeah, if he cannot speak English, then he is well advised to advise Children  that its best to learn English . 

     If you read the whole article in Thai, you will understand that is what he meant 

I think that he was just being diplomatic , saying that Thai isnt an international language...................although it could be in a 100 years .

     Being Thai, not telling things straight

This is not being diplomatic.  It's being preposterous.

One of many Crazy things coming out of his mouth Really TIT

Thai is a dead language in all senses - there is absolutely no Thai spoken in business or other global business (Anywhere outside Thailand borders). 60-million Thais will never disappear but their language will, eventually. Along with English skills of those Thais who 'have' them they are pathetically poor. So, Gen Pomade, whatcha going to do about grasping the concept Thailand is willing to emerge but the 'privileged' keep peasants down on the farm so there is never a chance for upward mobility..... I'd wager most bar girls speak better Thai than those governing!

   You just do not understand, the point was to get Thai children to learn English

CNN & BBC have been reporting this but it keeps getting cut off with a censor message; 

 

"We'll be right back"

 

Neither I nor the next 20 generations of my descendants will live to see this "lofty vision" (pipe dream redefined) become reality.  The company of fools grows; Trump, Farage, Johnson, Vlad.

 

Glad I found my cave.
