    I would say that Yingluck's departure will not greatly affect the political situation in Thailand very much. Yes, the immediate symbol is gone, but the ideas behind the rise of the 'Red' side remain.

     

    The simple fact is that people in the north have decided that Bangkok has not served them well. And I do not see that changing any time soon.

     

    Whether another Shin family member steps in or an outsider takes the helm, it remains that People in the north will want to vote for one of their own.

     

    If Thailand wants to progress away from regional or identity politics, political parties need to convince voters in the north that they actually care about their interests, and I see no sign of that.

     

    The more things change, the more they stay the same...

    Would you please be so kind to explain what the care of the Shins for the North an Northeast exactly means, besides garnering votes?

    Well we know somethings that we can all accept as facts right?  there is an unelected Junta that took control of government  FACT  people have come to mistrust the 'justice' system?  FACT   the case against Yingluck was political?  FACT   she knew the outcome and the Junta helped her leave?  FACT   the country is divided?  FACT  the next elections will be neutered?  FACT   so we can agree on at least those things right?

    Only on the word fact..

    Mistrust of the justice system was already there and in fact anywhere in the world, there were governments with a bias to personal enrichment, the country was divided already and further divided by the redshirts, the outcome of elections are always subject to neutering anywhere on the world, trials of politicos are always politically motivated, and fact is the best way is for her to go to Dubai.

    Fact is, the Shins again leave their underlings out to dry.

    As for the coup, what would have happened if there had not been a coup?
