泰國新總理用聖水、風水擋巫術

New Thai PM uses holy water， feng shui to ward off occult
　　As he prepares to move in to Bangkok’s Government House this week， Thai Prime Minister Prayuth Chan-ocha is going to great lengths to sweep away any occult challenge.
　　在他準備於本周搬進曼谷的總理府之際，泰國總理帕拉育要大費周章地掃除任何巫術威脅。
　　Prayuth has left nothing to chance since leading a military coup to topple a democratically elected government on May 22. After a meticulously planned power grab， he has systematically snuffed out dissent.
　　帕拉育自從5月22日帶頭髮動軍事政變、推翻經民主選舉?生的政府後，就步步為營。經過精心策劃的奪權行動後，他便有系統地剷除異己。
　　Like many politicians and generals before him， Prayuth believes in spiritualism and divination and on Monday members of his entourage were seen carrying Buddha statues and religious idols thought to bring luck in to Government House.
　　就像在他之前的許多政治人物和軍事將領一樣，帕拉育深信神靈之說，他的隨從周一就被目擊將據信可帶來好運的佛像和宗教偶像帶進總理府。
　　Furniture in Prayuth’s designated office has been arranged according to the principles of feng shui.
　　帕拉育專用辦公室內的傢具依照風水原則擺設。
　　"Prayuth’s work table has been placed in the east of the work room as this is thought to aid quick solutions，" a prime ministerial aide told Reuters.
　　「帕拉育的辦公桌放在辦公室的東邊，因為這個方位被認為有助於迅速解決問題，」一名總理助理告訴路透。
　　"The tones in the building will mostly be green， as this is the army’s color and Prayuth， as army chief， is compatible with green，" the aide said.（Reuters）
　　「辦公室的色調將以綠色為主，因為這是陸軍的代表色，也與身為陸軍總司令的帕拉育很合，」這名助理說。（路透）
