Junta chairman Prayuth Chan-ocha on Monday shakes hands with Surin province residents.

 

BANGKOK — A former coordinator of the Yellowshirt movement said Sunday that the junta can regain popular support by materializing reforms in five areas of government within the next eight months.

 

Suriyasai Katasila said the junta could still regain people’s support if they make good on their promises to reform the country’s bureaucracy and democratic process, improve people’s income and livelihood, crackdown on corruption and bridge inequity.

crackdown on corruption

Yea, they've shown that they selectively pursue corruption, and blatantly ignore it when it's right in their faces. 

But at least the lead article is (mercifully) much shorter than the usual presentations these days.

 

Waffle in palatable chunks is infinitely preferable to a whole page of the usual Alice-in-Wonderland stuff

What they wouldn’t do in 4 years, you expect them so in 8 months? Delusional comment by this rightist yellow shirt lackey. 

You can't bring about reform if you're the very obstacle to that reform. It's a non-starter. 

Why did they already kidnap Abhisit to be reconditioned? 

The day is coming and it can be any day of the week under black theme. Reconciliation is all about them getting out before the country is irreversibly outpaced for many of export items. Go ahead, increase the minimum wage again, be the untouchable detractor and silence the media and all opponents under article section 44. If my dog or wife had even 1/16 of any of the traits of both P's, then she would have been put out to pasture years ago. An ego is a terrible thing to hang on to.
