Obviously not very well travelled.

Ha Ha Ha its called sarcasm (you may have too look it up)

Only traveled to about 80 odd countries and worked in about 7

Try to imagine what it cost to move tanks from Prachinburi for a birthday celebration? A Royal salute would be more than in order; never saw any tanks on HM's Father's birthday nor at the trooping of the colours on December 2nd. Some hidden agenda or a new protocol scripted?

Why does Thailand even have an army? They appear to serve no useful function for society. And at this state of the game, they are actually moving the country backwards, and sucking its oxygen. 

Considering there is quite an extensive border with  Myanamar in the West they seem certainly where I live in the North to carry out what in other countries would be carried out maybe by a responsible police force the role of trying to stem the flow of metamphetamines allegedly manufactured by the Shan Army.

There have been quite a few gun battles up here with the smugglers a lot of which don’t seem to gain press coverage

Obviously on your travels you didn’t keep your eyes open

As they say the definition of sarcasm “the lower form of wit “

I will just file it under Thai Bashing.

A repositioning of military assets deftly done under the guise of a parade on a special occasion. Any chance The Nation on a followup report as to whether the assets are moved back to from whence they came or just quietly stay where they are now.
