webfact Posted March 25, 2019 Share Posted March 25, 2019 PM Prayut shows up late for work but refuses to answer questions By The Nation File photo Prime Minister Prayut Chan-o-cha arrived at the Government House on Monday, the day after the general election, later than usual. He usually arrives for work around 8.30am but on Monday his vehicle was seen entering the Government House at 9.37am. Palang Pracharat party, which nominated Prayut as its sole prime ministerial candidate, is currently neck to neck with Pheu Thai party in terms of seats won. The Election Commission has not yet announced the official tally of the general election. However an unofficial count saw Prayut’s party with only a few MPs less than Pheu Thai. Reporters at the Government House tried to ask Prayut questions but he waved them away and walked into the Government House building. A source revealed that Prayut watched the counting of the votes until late in the night, which probably caused him to arrive late at the Government House. Prayut has no appointments or meetings until 6pm.

Setting the tone for the new normal going forward. I suppose it's better than stroking their ears, or punching them in the face. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Honestly. Who gives a rip. I've showed up late to work in the umteen years I've worked - and it's nobodies business either. This is non-news.

Sydebolle Posted March 25, 2019 Share Posted March 25, 2019 Despite all the "good work" I find it mind boggling, that a power, absent for 10 ½ years and jetting around with his sister, greeting royals (?) in Hong Kong still can call such shots. All remote control without physical presence - a miracle? In all fairness, it does not only reflect the power this man seem to have but also how weak the rest of the lot is. Rigging, fiddling, buying, meddling, protesting, forbidding and still not winning - the writing is on the wall in very big, fat letters. Latter though requires the ability to read ............

I went to bed last night thinking the PT projections had a wide, wide margin. Woke up this morning and Prayuth was nearly in the lead. Amazing, innit?
