Chiang Mai – Some kids were apparently puzzled when they joined a Children Day celebration held under sponsorship of former prime minister Thaksin Shinawatra at the Waroros Grand Palace Hotel.
They were told to recite a motto given by Thasksin in exchange for prizes.
They were told to recite “To have bright future, children must learn technology” but some kids recited the motto of Prime Minister Abhisit Vejjajva, which says: “Be creative, be diligent in studying and uphold morality”.
A lot of red-shirt people took their children to join the celebration. Prizes given by Thakin included a BlackBerry phone, 60 bicycles and many sports equipment.
