Many tv keyboard warriors just sit behind their pc's and complain, whinge, whine and carry on, well maybe it's time to stop your constant whinging and move. Yes go to Cambodia or Laos where the sun shines and you can enjoy 2018. Another great year ahead for the Junta and Thailand ... !! happy xmas to the TV members who like Thailand and the governance, and the rest ...well they can gth. lol Ah, Christmas: the season of peace and goodwill so I wish posters would stop suggesting others move to another country if they are not happy about certain things here.

I don't know what Merkel has to do with this? The only way for democracy to work in Thailand is for the military to be under the control of the government. That has never been the case in Thailand, so political parties (prime ministers) have always served at the pleasure of the military commanders. Now we see a case of a military leader working hard to ensure that any elected leader will be a puppet on a very short string. You asked the question, so here's my answer. Any genuinely elected leader is preferable to a general, no matter how bad they may be. There are democratic ways to change leadership. Tanks are not necessary. It amazes me that the current leadership has a huge expat fan club on here. I know what you are trying to say . But please listen to what I say in all respect . I am saying democracy is not working in most of the world to the benefit of its citizens any more. I used Merkel as a prime example.In one swift move she has destroyed the demograhics of Germany for ever.She was elected and is totally unsuited for her position. My statement using her was just to make the point she was elected by democracy and is wrecking her country,at least Prayut is bringing his country forward. What has democracy done good for America as of late if you talk to any Americans, How is democracy working in France,Belgium,Germany,and England. They are all suffering from poor government leadership, and are declining. Democracy is over rated because we know nothing else.Prayut may not be perfect but he sure the hell beats Merkel by a country mile taking care of his country man.

You are right they had no choice but which leader is doing the most for their country certainly not Merkel. Elected or not he does more for Thailand then Merkel for Germany.

Coming from a democratic and only knowing democracy. But now after what 4 years I walk around Thailand and wonder if I was wrong to judge so quick. I see improvements in daily life. I go to the market can park my motorcycle near the market he took Yamaha motorcycles off the street and put them back in the showroom . They use to sit outside all day and take all the parking.He has opened parking near our bus station by removing illegal vendors. He has closed down 2 hillside girlslave brothels that I know were here maybe more. I go to Pattaya now it is not a bunch of drunk european men walking around with no shirts. These are just things that are easily visible and are major changes on how things are done in Thailand. It would be nice if others could mention things he has done you see regularly that appears to be for the better.. The deadline is nearly out but here is a late candidate for the most ignorant and most fatuous post of the year. The defenders of fascism once said Mussolini made the trains run on time.For this dimwit the bar is lower - he can park his motorcycle more easily.

I can see that all the critizism the junta leader and the no. 2 ogre has come under for all the astoundingly expensive watches and other evidence of rampant corr unusual wealth has not reduced your Pavlovian need to defend him. Tell me Steven, if Thailand gets a new Shin supported government in 2018/2019 can we look forward to you moving to another country? Can you promise us that?

steven100 Posted December 26, 2017 Share Posted December 26, 2017 not reading your stupid whinging replies. If you don't like the Thai governance then you know what to do.

Please answer this one simple question as several of your fellow TVF posters are dying to know your answer: If another Shin supported government is installed will you move away from Thailand?

Eric Loh Posted December 26, 2017 Share Posted December 26, 2017 Will be hanging around till Democracy is restored and hopefully the next government has enough support to seek a referendum to re-write the constitution to made it more people centric. My wish for 2018 is for election to take place and the corrupt military generals will see their days in court and maybe in Hague. Happy new year everyone.
