A promise is a promise?

The PPP made abolishing the (financial) controls a key promise in the Dec 23 election.


тАШтАШWe did say in our campaign platform we want to scrap this policy but now we are in the government. We have to be careful about what we say or do,тАЩтАЩ Dr Surapong said.

Well, I guess at least he's honest. Most places they'd just lead you on forever

Do you understand what you are posting

For me it makes absolutely no sense

It seems to me that what he is saying that, the PPP before the election said that abolishing the (financial) controls was a key promise and that they would do it if they won the election.

But now here is a statement from the Bangkok Post from the new government from Dr. Suripong himself:

тАШтАШWe did say in our campaign platform we want to scrap this policy but now we are in the government, We have to be careful about what we say or do,тАЩтАЩ

So they've broken an election promise before they have even begun.

I could not have said it better!!
