Tim Cook Speaks Up

Labels: Tim Cook | author: Get & Game

Throughout my professional life, I’ve tried to maintain a basic level of privacy. I come from humble roots, and I don’t seek to draw attention to myself. Apple is already one of the most closely watched companies in the world, and I like keeping the focus on our products and the incredible things our customers achieve with them.

At the same time, I believe deeply in the words of Dr. Martin Luther King, who said: “Life’s most persistent and urgent question is, ‘What are you doing for others?’ ” I often challenge myself with that question, and I’ve come to realize that my desire for personal privacy has been holding me back from doing something more important. That’s what has led me to today.

A letter from Thai people to the international communities.
Hello friends . We, thai people, would like you to understand what’s going on after the Thai military took control of the country. We, the majority of Thai citizens, millions and millions Thais are happy to see it happened. However, there are some small groups of people,with the support from those corrupt Thais living abroad, are trying to discredit the well intention of the military. The number of those who go out to protest the coup are small and they are paid for by Thaksin ,a criminal living in exile. The majority of the Thais welcome the coup.

1. The coup d’état is necessary for the upcoming true democracy in Thailand . Ninety -nine per cent of the population welcomes it along with the martial law. The coup came out to resolve the crisis, will initiate a reform and then hold an election. This will bring a true democracy to our country.
2. The coup did not come out to rid the democracy or to gain military power. They had to do it to help the country from chaos and civil war, designed by Thaksin
3. The protesters are supported and paid for by the Thaksin regime. Thaksin and his cronies are the corrupt officials who use the political power to steal the country it’s wealth.
4. What is happening in Thailand is our internal affair. We can resolve our crisis ourselves.
We do not wish to see any interference from outside in any case.
With respect,
The people of Thailand
