Thailand’s First Army Area Commander, Lieutenant General Worayos Luangsuwan requirement requires
me of a famous quote from Great Britain’s Prime Minister Winston Churchill who said, “An appeaser
is one who feeds a crocodile, hoping it will eat him last.”

The question we should ask is, how can we justify appeasement in the face of such recent aggressions?
