The PM is not our Big Brother

Whoever signs the minutes of a meeting, including attachments, must be the one who is held accountable for its accuracy. If it were otherwise, nobody would know for sure what meeting participants had really agreed upon. That's why the chairperson is alway
The minutes clearly state that the PM ordered the Information and Technology Communications Technology Ministry to “set up” – not “study” – the single gateway without delay (BP, 8 Oct, “Prayut to ‘deal with’ meeting minutes writer”).
Prayut defends his claim that this gross invasion of privacy is merely being “studied” by saying, “If a method violates human rights or laws, it can’t be implemented. It’s as simple as that” – but he’s “invited” schoolchildren for “attitude adjustments” because they peacefully flashed three-finger salutes or read Orwell’s classic ‘1984’ in public, putting the lie to his words.
PM Prayut, instead of trying to deny your smoking gun, accept that the minutes were accurate but that the Cabinet was prying and wrong, and respect our rights more. You are not our Big Brother.
