Maybe PM should stick to pasa Thai

I find it very shocking that when Prime Minister Yingluck Shinawatra used the word "over-come" instead of "welcome" to greet US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton at their joint press conference on the occasion of the latter's official visit to Thailand r

Next time, it would be better if PM Yingluck speaks in Thai through an interpreter on such important occasions. There is nothing embarrassing about that. Don’t try to impress your rural supporters and at the same time embarrass the whole country by using English the way you are. In history, even wars happened when wrong words were chosen by leaders.
