Bob Posted January 6, 2014 Share Posted January 6, 2014 A rather insightful (and, perhaps, brave) article about the current poltical happenings as written by Thomas Fuller, the NY Times correspondent based in Bangkok. I'm a bit surprised he hasn't received a bit of heat over some of his comments: http://www.nytimes.com/2013/12/17/world/asia/in-thailand-rallying-cry-is-against-too-much-democracy.html?pagewanted=1&_r=0&ref=thomasfuller vinapu 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vinapu Posted January 6, 2014 Share Posted January 6, 2014 An interesting article.! Just hope reason prevails in the end? in the end reason will prevail but is end near? Nothing points to it. It just another case of politicians trying to pump water into nation heads for their own ends. Great insights from Mr. Fuller on deification of monarchy, thanks Bob for an article Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KhorTose Posted January 7, 2014 Share Posted January 7, 2014 Even the NYT is being too indirect when talking about the real problem. I am referring to that big elephant in the room that no one can say anything about. vinapu 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vinapu Posted January 7, 2014 Share Posted January 7, 2014 Likely he wants to keep his BKK post without getting acquainted with penal system like happened to few others in not so distant past. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
