Scratch the surface, and you’ll see the high-speed train is on China’s wish list – to zip its products farther afield. Pheu Thai can’t say no to China, can it?
This “road show” will present a shiny train zipping through the countryside. Thais will think, “Wow, we should get that!” without giving much thought to the many problems that will accompany such a foolish and grossly expensive project – and which will also adversely affect their grandkids and great-grandkids. The Pheu Thai road show should give away red, blue and silver-coloured candies shaped like little bullet trains.
