  1. Back when Thaksin was elected there was indeed improvement for the normal country folk in the North and North East. But now the PT supporters are prematurely cheering with the old establishment on board. It will not work. The establishment doesn't play with dirty kids. The fact that the PT party has caved in and celebrates brotherhood with the old putschists instead of respecting the will of the people for more democracy will not pay off.

  2. Ridiculous. The article considers only a narrow segment of economic projects without considering the benefits and financial dependencies. When i  look at it as a whole, my  judgment is quite different.

     

    - Modernization of the school and education system?
    - Excellence in research?
    - Better health care for all Thais?
    - Set up a pension system?
    - Land reform?
    - Modernization of the authorities?
    - Police reform?
    - Reducing the national debt?
    - Strengthening democracy?
    - Investments in future technologies?
    - Water and sewage security?
    - Road safety?
    - Waste management?
    - Flood prevention?
    - Reduction of corruption?
    - Economic growth?
    - Better distribution of income?
    - Transparency in government spending?
    - and much more.

    Succeeded?

    Has there been success for the Thai people on these issues? Certainly not.
