Latest skirmishes right after Chamlong, major PAD key player was taken in (after near 2 months overdue arrest warrant)? Big powers at play here..
Yes, it's not (and never be) like our tiny red dot. No fight (excuse the pun) or comparison here. Apologies for digressing, don't mind me. Pls continue sex bias here. More fun  |
Hi Bro Yingyang...
I agree with u tat there are players behind the scenes that are the real power players.....and the power divide is a reality.
However, wat the PAD is proposing is just a step backwards from democracy.....they are saying that the rural folk DO NOT know how to choose the govt...and that the elites...meaning the rich or well connected get to choose a certain percentage of the govt....tat is agst the law of one man one vote.....
At the mean time they keep accusing every current elected govt of being corrupted....how they plan to make their so called elite selection work is still unclear....
I think at the end of the day...wat most of us agree on is the fact that wat is currently going on with the PAD and the govt is just not helping thailand...and its such a pity coz they were doing so well just a few years back....
When will this country ever overlook their selfish individual motives and look for the good of their country whom they all claim to love so much....I wonder just how true is that...
