Which means you’re an extremely divisive PM. Something you promised to be the opposite of when you illegally took over. Time to step down and let a real leader come in. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have you forgotten what you did that caused the chaos and corruption? You seem to have a short memory,” said the Prime Minister. Has he conveniently forgotten that the protests by the opposition, in other words his supporters, instigated the political instability in the early 2010s? In fact it was his best buddy Suthep in 2013, who caused the chaos, and who openly and proudly admitted after the coup that he planned all this together with Prayut from scratch on. Prayut obvioulsy is not only the most notorious liar of Thailand, he also has a very short memory himself. 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rumak Posted October 27, 2020 Share Posted October 27, 2020 1 hour ago, spidermike007 said: And what about your promise to fight corruption? I doubt if you remember back this far, but when you and your clowns launched a coup, it was ostensibly to restore law and order, which you accomplished with draconian measures, and to get rid of the rot, and corruption in immigration, the police, customs, the government, and at the highest levels, which you never even made the slightest attempt to do. You substituted 10 foot alligators, with 14 foot crocodiles. And you have spent your entire six years protecting the elite, those in office, the army, the police, those who are connected, and the super wealthy. For God's sake, you could not even bring the Dark Tao killer to justice, nor the Red Bull creep. Again, busy protecting the wealthy with all of your power. The real problem is, you will not go after any of these guys. Not the top bankers, not the high ranking guys, not the provincial authorities, and certainly not the army, or the police. They are all corrupt beyond imagination. And the level of corruption simply escalates, the further up the food chain you go. As far as most of us are concerned, everything is the same. The police and army are not expected to be honest, and they are not expected to engage in law enforcement, traffic or public safety, on any level. It is an irrevocably broken and dysfunctional system. Any hyperbole to the contrary, is just a smoke screen, intended to deceive the most naive amongst us. Now, in this time of desperation, with your nation needing you more than ever before, where on earth are you? What have your proposed? Where are the solutions? There are at least a dozen good reasons why you should be removed from office. WOW !! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

These children see where their future lies, and they want to change it. They want the military out of government. Their parents and teachers do not have the intestinal fortitude that these young people have. Think everyone knew this was going to happen one day. A coup leader who prances around saying hie is doing a great job. Most older people are use to submitting authority figures. These brave kids are a refreshing change. I change what will not go away. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Misterwhisper Posted October 28, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted October 28, 2020 There is not much denying that corruption was rampant during the Yingluck Shinawatra administration -- not to mention the massive graft that also marred the preceding governments, namely those of her brother as well as the Shinawatra proxy governments of Samak Sundaravej and Somchai Wongsawat. But... YOU, Mr. Prayuth, orchestrated a coup d'etat in May 2014, claiming it was necessary to STAMP OUT corruption. Yes, you even repeatedly PROMISED that this was one of your main goals. And what DID happen during your almost 7 years of being sort of a self-proclaimed "savior of the country"? What DID you accomplish with regards to stamping out corruption? That's right. Nothing! In fact, corruption under your administration is just as bad as it always has been. So, please, spare us the moralistic finger. Because it comes across as hypocritical and dishonest, you know? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How exactly is it possible to earn such a wealth in Thailand as a governmental official, and without being a successfull businessman? Just asking.... I asked the same question recently, and was told by one poster he inherited millions through his fathers land ownership, though I have to say, why would a son in a rich family like that be joining the army?

When Taksin was in power , one of the complaints of the disenfranchised elite was that the rural buffaloes didn't understand democracy and only voted in their own interest. Prayuths statement clearly demonstrates that it is Prayuth and his supporters who don't understand the way democracy works. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Definitely something not right there. His father also was an army guy. So we can ask the same question about him as well. The Thai army is and always has been nothing but a Mafia-like institution whose main duty is to enrich its leaders on cost of the nation. They are no patriots, especially today, as they ruin the nation and sell it and its people to China right now, only to line up their own pockets. And they don't serve the nation. They rape it. 7 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arkady Posted October 28, 2020 Share Posted October 28, 2020 Now Prayut has been PM for over six years, or longer than anyone else since the end of absolute Deleted in 1932, except for Thanom's 10 year stint (mainly as military dictator without a constitution but he staged a coup against his own government at one point when he got fed up with parliament) from 1963 to 1973 when he was overthrown by a student uprising. It remains to be seen whether Prayut has the staying power to beat Thanom's record in office. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
