Prawit's financial wizardry

re: "Champagne corks pop in Prawit home" (BP, December 8) 


Dear editor,

That the selflessly humble Defense Minister and First Deputy PM could parlay his modest official salaries into an 87 million Baht fortune whilst clearly not stinting on life's little pleasures clearly qualifies him as an economic master. He should be rewarded with the extra portfolio of Finance Minister, although some of his army mate colleagues cum politicians offer stiff competition for performing financial miracles seemingly out of nothing.

Meanwhile, his display of conspicuous sufficiency economics is the perfect model of that philosophy as practiced by its loudest advocates. And with every confidence that he will be found innocent of any wrong doing, his already granted amnesty will not be needed.
