Thailand delays $724m China submarine deal

[glockman]

Why the fuck does Thailand want to buy those substandard commie rubbish? Thai submariner lives will be in danger each time they step into that piece of shit. Fucking metal coffin. They should cancel the deal and demand a 100% refund.

A Chinese Great Wall 236 conventional submarine. Thailand has delayed its order for two more submarines from China amid anger over the purchase while the economy is badly hit by the coronavirus pandemic

Thailand delayed on Monday its $724 million purchase of two submarines from China, following public outrage over the controversial deal as the kingdom's economy flatlines due to the coronavirus pandemic.

Under a 2015 deal, Thailand was one of the first countries to buy Chinese naval hardware and finalised its purchase of three submarines in 2017, with the first one expected to be delivered in 2023.

An order for two more for 22.5 billion baht ($723.9 million) was approved earlier this month by a parliamentary sub-committee -- a move which drew public outcry as Thailand struggles with a freefalling economy.

Angry Thais took to social media to criticise the deal, and the hashtag "People don't want submarines" trended on Twitter.

Government spokesman Anucha Burapachaisri announced Monday Prime Minister Prayut Chan-O-Cha -- also defence minister -- had "requested the navy to consider a delay" in the purchase of the two additional submarines.

"The navy will negotiate with China to delay for another year," Anucha told reporters.

Prayut's military-aligned administration is under fire from near-daily protests demanding his resignation and a complete overhaul of the government -- which the demonstrators consider illegitimate.

China has a strong influence over Thailand.
When I was working in BKK years back, I was surprised how many Tiong restaurants are there. And the Tiong staff there spoke fluent Thai.
And the place I worked was close to a Thai-China business school.

Wow Comrade Tan of the CCP, I know you are very upset, that things are not going well for your PRC pals, what with Amazing #1 in the world America out there but remember America is kings and PRC is not

 

[face the facts]

that sinking feeling........haha how appropriate
maybe subs can be used to repair their dams instead

 

[laksaboy]

Can't wait till China's naval bases in Shandong and Hainan island are bombed.

Due to decades of the one child policy and a preference for male children, the number of male Tiongs now vastly exceed the number of female Tiongs. I think that gender ratio will flip in the near future. Hint: look at the former Soviet Union countries e.g. Ukraine.

The dams need to be bombed/dismantled, not repaired. They are nothing more than a vanity project for the ruling elites which do nothing to solve the flooding problems.

Sounds familiar, doesn't it?

 

[Hypocrite-The]

Are tiong submarines that bad? I think it's better to buy European or nip submarines. Personally the best diesel submarines are the Nip ones.

 

[shittypore]

What happened to Jibkor's Subway Marine?

Thailand needs to cancel this deal pronto. I like Thai people, don't want to see their submariners die senselessly in shit submarines that are easily detected by their enemies.

Malaysia buying PRC ships, cancel what?

 

[Loofydralb]

Thailand cannot run submarines because there are no farangs on board.

Thailand can only survive with farangs around.

hanor, these should be used as dredges to deepen the choa praya river to ease the annual floods, just like the hoards of male tourists deepening the puyings' nonoks
