colinneil Posted October 27, 2019 Share Posted October 27, 2019 Ordered that road traffic be orderly and not disruptive. All the minions stood there quaking, listening to his orders, the la-la kid strikes again. What a sad pathetic man, having to bark orders, which nobody takes notice of.????

mikebell Posted October 28, 2019 Share Posted October 28, 2019 I rarely visit Bangkok because of the traffic hold-ups. I would warn any ordinary mortal thinking of going during this period to think again. Only VIPs will be allowed to use the roads then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kaoboi Bebobp Posted October 28, 2019 Share Posted October 28, 2019 News conference is just a PR stunt. You don't suddenly start prep days before a quasi-major regional meeting -- at which absolutely nothing consequential will be decided, in keeping with the traditional emptiness of ASEAN meetings.

He also ordered the PM2.5 to drop to lower levels, the clouds to part and the sun to shine... and the Som-tam to be extra spicy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steven100 Posted October 28, 2019 Share Posted October 28, 2019 It will be another excellent opportunity to show other international dignitaries how far Thailand has come and continues to develop it's infrastructure, with the HSRP just one example. Khun Prayut Chan O Cha will discuss trade agreements with the seven ASEAN trading partners as well as future growth prospects for the entire region.

He is busy back home trying to even up the imbalance in trade between Thailand and the US. Also spending time bringing the world's attention to the rights abuses and slave labour in the Thai fishing industry. He is probably also worried about the high health risks of pollution and particle levels in the honourable leader's pristine city. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also another opportunity for delegates and their entourages to see close up what is happening to the Hopewell circus being played out right now. No doubt they will take special note of what is likely to happen to other potential foreign and ASEAN investors risking their money in the Land of Dirty Tricks.
