The real question: is Prayut losing his grip?
Re: “PM slammed for six questions”, The Nation, yesterday.
The newspapers are speaking out against the junta, politicians, academics are speaking out against the junta. There is a very slow but steady groundswell of discontent among the populace. I would think even the elites that were the mainstay of the current powers-that-be must be reassessing their positions.

Yes, The Nation along with other media sources are recognising there is a groundswell of discontent about the way PM Prayut is dictatorially going about structuring his rule so that he sees through his raft of 20-year plans. He is not going to let those be thrown in the rubbish bin, regardless of whether they should be or not.
In any case, it is now obvious he doesn’t have the quality of people around him to carry through his 20-year plan objectives.

The clear message in Prayut’s eyes: “Hell’s bells ... running a HAPPY country is more complicated than I thought. If you guys have got any good ideas as to what dumb questions to ask the dumb people next, will you jot them down. Here’s a clean piece of paper. I’ll get the hang of this, one day ... maybe.”

If they understood the declining marginal productivity of debt in Thailand (and the rest of the world), they would be able to identify the main reason for the rising discontent.
The GDP numbers are giving a false picture of the health of the economy!
