Hardtalk : Thai prime minister & Former prime minister

Post by Siani »

Hardtalk with the thai prime minister and former prime minister was very interesting a couple of days ago. I am not sure if you can download the whole interview, well worth watching if you can.

This is the 2 links:

In the final days now, the Democrats have gone main stream Google with a YouTube clip. You should be able to see the ad at the top of this page and other forum pages on a rotating basis. Pete :cheers:

The Hardtalk interview was really hard talk, after his questions about the next in line to the throne I think he may have problems with Immigration if he comes to Thai.

It is a shame that the expats cannot view it. There were some very frank questions asked to both of them regarding the future of Thailand and its way into the future with the military, the government and the role of the royal family for the future. The interview with Stephen Sackur was very polite and respectful towards the Thai government, royal family etc but questions were asked about future roles in modern Thailand.

Try this link :?

To view anything from the BBC you have to be in the UK or have a proxy server - its unavailability has nothing to do with this shower.

Fortunately, it's all here and it's free.

^^ Oh nanyang, what have you done? I've just looked at uknova. I haven't thought about Coronation Street for 8 years and there it is, all laid out before me... A recovering junkie's nightmare...

:D It's a fantastic source of sanity for me here in China and Thailand -where I live.
Match of the Day during the season is a required fix on Sundays with a few beers.
10baht a pint here so I down a few more than recommended.

I'm sure you'll find lots to enjoy.

I'm pretty sure that both of those interviews took place in Thailand.

Yes I think so too, it looked like a Thai office with Thai flag on the desk.
