Opposition on the budget to buy 3 Chinese made submarines by Thailand’s military junta
Thailand’s military junta, under General Prayuth Chan-ocha, wants to set aside US$1 billion budget to buy 3 Chinese made submarines. We, Thai people who are living in the United States of America, strongly oppose, with the reasons as follow:
1. Current Thai government, under General Prayuth Chan-ocha, was not elected by Thai people, therefore, do not have the right to spend US$1 billion of taxpayers' hard-earned money buying 3 Chinese made submarines.
2. The decision to purchase 3 Chinese made submarines at the same time is a defense strategic important decision and must be opened up to public wide-ranging discussion and examination which the present political atmosphere under dictatorial government of General Prayuth Chan-ocha does not allow.
3. Thai government should concentrate on solving economic and drought problems which are the more important and more urgent problems, at the moment.
