Old Croc Posted January 25, 2017 Share Posted January 25, 2017 Other countries in the region with submarines are - Australia, Malaysia, Singapore, India, Indonesia and China. Of those the most likely to be seeking to expand territory would be China. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NextStationBangkok Posted January 25, 2017 Share Posted January 25, 2017 Thailand is wasting money 13 billion bhat to help China to spy other countries in the world. It is waste of money investing such resources if there are no threat or disputes to Thai borders with neighboring country. Just China is expanding it is border up to Thailand.

Sydebolle Posted January 25, 2017 Share Posted January 25, 2017 Quite a number - this Prawit guy. Dusting off the old money spinner of his predecessors. Same story seems to resurface regularly in +/- 10 years interval. Last time the Swedish front offered a deal of one new sub - then the Germans came in and said they would supply one brand new sub AND a second-hand sub free of charge for training purposes. The government did not last long enough to ink the paperwork. See the billions of Baht clearly wasted in bright daylight at Sattahip; where HTMS Chakri Naruebet has been moored, thanks to plenty of barnacle support, for 20 years. Twice or three times floated for "relief" operations and a yearly venue on Children's Day (2nd Saturday in January). It's scandalous but it proves that the public does not care or is simply too stupid to understand what happens with their tax money. But one never knows, maybe deep river submarine ports are to follow in Mukdahan, Nakhon Phanom and Kentao to fight the marine attack to be expected anytime soon by the Thais Northeastern neighbours - the Vietnamese who shoulder carry their subs across the mountains to float them in the Mekong ...........
