Princess Ubolratana thanks Thais for support

Princess Ubolratana Rajakanya Sirivadhana Barnavadi posted a message on Saturday morning to thank Thais for their love and support.
The older sister of His Majesty the King posted the message on her Instagram wall shortly after 6am after His Majesty prohibited her from standing in the upcoming election as a candidate for prime minister of a pro-Thaksin party.
"I would like to thank all of my fellow Thais for the love and kindness towards me throughout the day [Friday]. And I would like to thank you all for moral support and for supporting me. Anyway, I would like to thank you all again sincerely.
“I would like to see Thailand move forward and become admired and accepted by the international community. I would like to see all Thais enjoy rights and chances and have well-being and happiness throughout the country. And I would like to thank you all with my love and sincerity. I wish you all good luck and happiness. #ILoveYou," the Princess posted.
A political bombshell was dropped on Friday morning when the Thai Raksa Chart party nominated her as its sole candidate for prime minister in the upcoming elections.
But some 12 hours later, however, His Majesty issued a nationally televised royal command saying immediate members of the Royal Family traditionally must stay above politics.

King bars Princess Ubolratana from entering politics

His Majesty the King issued a statement on Friday night prohibiting his older sister Princess Ubolratana Rajakanya Sirivadhana Barnavadi from entering politics after she decided to accept a pro-Thaksin Shinawatra party’s invitation to run as its PM candidate.
Some 12 hours after Ubolratana’s name was submitted to the Election Commission as Thai Raksa Chart Party’s sole prime ministerial candidate, His Majesty issued a nationally televised statement saying immediate members of the Royal Family traditionally stayed above politics.
Princess Ubolratana, who relinquished her royal status in 1972 after marrying a foreigner, is the oldest daughter of King Rama IX.
Though Ubolratana has given up her royal titles, she has maintained close ties with the Royal Family and worked under the name of the monarchy, the statement said, adding, “it is against tradition, norms and culture to bring members of the Royal Family into politics”.
The country’s charters, including the current Constitution, have given the monarchy a special status, keeping them above politics and protecting them from legal action and defamation.
The King has always assigned members of the Royal Family to represent and work on his behalf, hence no immediate member of the Royal Family can hold a political position, the statement said.

A royal and a commoner, film star and tourism ambassador, ubolratana has 31 million Thai children among her fans
Princess Ubolratana on Friday set aside her roles in entertainment and social welfare to leap into politics as the sole prime-ministerial candidate for the Thai Raksa Chart Party affiliated with former premier Thaksin Shinawatra.
Born in Lausanne, Switzerland, Ubolratana, 67, is the eldest child of Their Majesties Queen Sirikit and the late King Bhumibol Adulyadej.
She is the elder sister of His Majesty King Maha Vajiralongkorn and Their Royal Highnesses Princesses Maha Chakri Sirindhorn and Chulabhorn.
She attended Chitralada School in Bangkok from the primary to secondary levels and moved to the United States for her tertiary education. Graduating with a bachelor’s degree in mathematics from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology in 1973, she went on to obtain a master’s in public health at the University of California Los Angeles.
Ubolratana relinquished her royal title in 1972 when she married an American, Peter Jensen, and changed her named to Julie Jensen.
She has two daughters, Ploypailin and Sirikitiya Jensen. The couple’s only son, Poom Jensen, perished in the 2004 tsunami while vacationing at Ban Nam Khem in Phang-nga.
After her divorce in late 1998, the Princess returned to Thailand and received a royal designation.
She has enjoyed a higher media profile than any of her siblings, chiefly through an anti-drug campaign that her “To Be Number One” Foundation launched in 2002.
The foundation currently has more than 31 million members throughout the Kingdom, mostly young people. Its work often takes her on tours around the country, during which she encourages children to stay away from drugs. It’s not uncommon to see her singing and dancing alongside the youngsters at their gatherings.
Ubolratana has appeared in Thai movies and hosts the television show “Talk to the Princess” on government-run ModerNine TV, further promoting the aims of her foundation.
Her show business career began with a starring role in the television soap opera “Kasattiya” in 2003, followed three year later with a part in “Anantalai”, a series she also wrote under the penname “Ploykampetch”.
In 2011 the Princess starred alongside her daughter Ploypailin in “Dao Long Fah, Pupha Si-ngen”. All three productions emerged from Kantana Co, a major Thai entertainment firm.
She made her big-screen debut in 2008 in the drama “Where the Miracle Happens”, playing the lead role of a lonely-at-the-top CEO who becomes a philanthropist after the death of her only daughter.
In 2010 she appeared in the action film “My Best Bodyguard”.
Ubolratana actively maintains an Instagram account that has some 100,000 followers and is admired for the warm messages of condolences she sends in times of natural disaster and other difficult moments.
As a culture ambassador for Thailand, she has been promoting the Thai film and tourism industries overseas for more than a decade.
The Tourism and Sport Ministry has several times tapped her charisma and her fluency in English to promote the Kingdom at the Cannes Film Festival and other overseas events.

Student satirists deliver their annual kick

Colourful floats took aim at politics, pollution and persecution at the annual Thammasat-Chula football match on Saturday afternoon at the National Stadium in Bangkok.
Few topics were off-limits for the students, who nonetheless had to run the usual gauntlet of humour-challenged authorities who showed up to keep a close watch on proceedings.
A favourite theme was the banquet hosted by Palang Pracharath in mid-December, when the pro-regime party claimed to have raised 650 million baht from 200 tables.
The CU team showed off a banquet table with a map of Thailand on it. The map was divided into pieces for rich people to feast on. A banner on the CU side of the stadium said: “Banquet catering for hire. Starting at 650 million baht.”
After much speculation, Palang Pracharath disclosed, as required by law, banquet proceeds of 90 million baht, far short of the previous boast, raising the question how much it had really raised. The Election Commission is looking into the case.
Another card stunt, also on the CU side read: “Banquet, anyone?”
Chula students also presented a float featuring a ballot box, with a man in green and a very long nose with a placard reading “Oust me if you can” — a reference to Gen Prayut Chan-o-cha’s recent angry outburst when asked if he should resign if he became a prime ministerial candidate.

Next came a giant ATM with 500-baht banknotes streaming from its slot, referring to the 500-baht cash handout to low-income earners from the military government in the run-up to the election.
Thammasat marchers entered the stadium with “Game of Trade”, reflecting the tensions between the US and China. A captain with a Twitter-logo shield, representing Donald Trump, was partially surrounded by a border wall. Behind the Great Wall was Winnie the Pooh. References to the lovable bear are censored in China as people have been using images of the Pooh character when they want to mock leader-for-life Xi Jinping.
Another TU float showed what looked like a vacuum cleaner with Gen Prayut’s face, a reference to the way veteran MPs from other parties were sucked up to form a new party. The device was also propped up by men with different party logos indicating parties pledging their allegiance to Gen Prayut.
Another election float aimed to convey the view that the March 24 poll does not reflect the will of the people but is rather a tool to perpetuate power.
A ballot from a polling station bearing the number 44 showed the result: “Mr Vutthi Sapathat [slave senate] won with 250 votes while Mr Thai Hamchaisit [Thais banned from voting] got zero votes.”
The fourth TU float showed a monument with a “Section 44” banner.
A highlight from TU was a float featuring Hakeem al-Araibi, the Bahraini footballer now detained in Thai prison despite his refugee status in Australia. It showed a handcuffed man holding the ball and wearing prisoner’s garb.
Another banner — “Taxpayers’ money = campaign funds” — touched on the reluctance of four ministers to resign for several months after they joined PPRP.
The students also made sure that a scandal starting to fade from the headlines will not be forgotten. Their banner read: “Por Por Chor [National Anti-Corruption Commission]… National ‘Pok Pong Pom’ [Protecting ‘Pom’]”, a reference to the nickname of Deputy Prime Minister Prawit Wongsuwan, who was in the hot seat over more than 20 very expensive watches he claimed to have borrowed from a now-deceased friend. He was later cleared by the NACC.
By the way, Chulalongkorn University won the football match 2-1. Of the 73 matches played since 1934, Thammasat has won 24 matches and Chula 17, with 32 draws.

Sometimes its nice to cook and eat at home. Went to market and told the fish seller to cut 2 thick pieces of snow fish ($70 per kg the 2 costs $54).
So I had snow fish dinner last night, steam and pan fry.
But first black chicken herbal soup
Steamed snow fish with chai-por and garlic on top
Pan fry snow fish
The meal

Thai teenagers probably knows more about civil liberty than our singaporean kids.
So I had leftover rice over Saturday's dinner, what should I do with it?
Fried rice of course. For fried rice using overnight rice is the best because it is dryer and easy to fry and could fry it evenly. I like fried rice to be simple with only ikan bilis and eggs.
So I prepare first the ikan bilis pan fried and also some prawns
Using the same oil from the fried fish now fry the garlic
Add eggs
Before the eggs fully cook throw in the rice the uncooked egg will coat the rice nicely and evenly
Stir fry with high heat for a while, add pepper, salt, fish sauce and soya sauce and a tinge of sugar to cover the saltiness
Add teh ikan bilis and prawns
Stir fry a little bit more with high heat
There you have it

Your prawns look super fresh and chewy.
Where did you get them from? Did you soaked them in alkaline/egg white to get this effect?

Its always important to season with some salt and then rinse away the salt, before cooking its also important to dry your prawns with kitchen towels. Of course buy fresh prawns anbd its ok to freeze it after that for keeping. Honestly these prawns had been in my freezer for 6 weeks as we hardly cook last 2 months due to travels. I always pack 4-5 prawns in a bag for freezing with shells just legs trimmed off.
Thanks for sharing
