But coups DO work. They keep elected governments from getting the idea that they can actually change things. Until a large number of generals are lethally injected, coups will continue to be the preferred method of regime change.

If coups worked they would not need so many.

I guess you could say every coup is unique, along with the democracy and everything else etc.

This uniqueness thing is getting to be a bit of a regular feature.

Bingo.

 

Some of our 'hard-o-thinkun' members don't seem to be able to get this though.

IMO more of a myopic and tunnel vision Thaksin centric mentality.

Yeh, but it's so . . . so Thaidness enhancing. I can feel my ticker going thumpety-thump at just typing the word.

Yes thats a cret, sorry, a certain type of "farang-thai" uniqueness. Head in the sand, beer in the hand thing.

I can't see this regime ending well... The ego and sense of omnipotence of this little man can only end in troublesome ways.

He looks a bit like a mix up of Robert Mugabe and Muammar Ghadaffi in the OP photo. Which is appropriate, because his pronouncements are as twisted and garbled as anything those two 'characters' ever came out with.

'Thainess' is taking a looong time to work out how to keep the Old Money entrenched, whilst keeping the masses happy. They keep coming up with these daft coup and judicial coup governments 'run' by half-wits and front men as a replacement for the assortment of spivs and used car salesman-types who get into power through elections. At this rate they'll crash and burn. But we live in hope that somebody will come along with the magic touch before then.

The label of "Thai style democracy" is so.. 20th century.

Although considering Mugabe has just been appointed a "WHO goodwill ambassador", I don't think I will get my hopes up for any improvement.

Maugabe

 was removed as a goodwill ambassador today Sunday by the who who admitted they got it wrong so he lasted a few hours only, doe not get worse than that

 

Sorry it does

 

We must ask whether we should be a democracy that maintains a Thai uniqueness

 

Either be a democracy or as the greens call it by stealth, a communist set up where the so called elite take the cake and eat it.

Nothing will change. The same family sits on the throne and royal generosity continues unabated. The Thai Royal Family gives more money to charitable causes than any other monarchy in the world. No reason why they would not remain very popular. This just shows the brilliance of King Bhumibol. A master gamesman who outsmarted the military at their own game.
