On the dead whale: The 12,000 baht per ton rice mortgage price
Man on the whale: Hey!! Let’s help turn it over. The government reverses the order on the 15,000 baht per ton now.
[Reference is to the government’s cut of the rice mortgage price from 15,000 to 12,000 baht per ton after facing huge losses. However, the government reversed the order due to pressure from protesting farmers.]
