» I get the feeling that the first words in the army's manual for dealing with sticky situations are "deny, deny, deny". Admitting to mistakes is a manly, brave, adult thing to do, so the fact the army almost always denies and refuses to admit to a mistake even when they are caught with their hands in the cookie jar makes me think that the army is pretty much composed only of boys.

» Reading the Defence Forces chief's statement, I am struck by how selfless and self-sacrificing he is trying to make army officers sound and then I remember all the profitable businesses that army officers have been involved in and I wonder whether any of these businesses are now army-free or army-lite as the army chief promised shortly after a soldier went berserk and killed a lot of innocent people because the thought he was being cheated in a land deal by his commanding office.

» Prime Minister Gen Prayut Chan-o-cha was wise enough to turn over our physical health to the care of doctors at the beginning of the pandemic. Now it seems to me would be a good time for him to turn over our economic health to the economists so they can tell us whether the purchase of these submarines is a worthwhile investment or not. I would especially like to know what the minister of finance thinks about this.
