What a waste to throw the tank away!

[Teo Kok Eng]

The Thais don't want these tanks and want to make beautiful corals

Waste can sell for scrap metal or display it .

The Thais think long term... Creating a new dive site for the future. See coral, marine life & tanks too! Wow...

Please la. This is a way to spend more money to get new and useless ones. Thai army knows only how to "do the people in". They can't fight for nuts. Face off with Cambodians they suffer lots of casualties and run away. See it for yourself in their coming clash.

Close, good guess. It is a T-69 and not T-54. It is belongs to the Thai army not Vietnam.

No wonder they are dumping it.

It must be leaking and refusing to move, judging from the fact that it is made in china.
