The Nation'S Mananging Editor On Freedom & Human Rights


Recommended Posts

Posted

For anyone wondering what makes The Nation the quality paper it is, maybe we should look at the thoughts of the Managing Editor K. Thanong who Tweeted yesterday . . .

Don't be misled by Freedom, Human rights, Democracy, globalisation and other crazy fashionable ideas. They are poisonous and hollow.

After being called out about this he did go on and clarify his point meaning what he meant to say were that these western notions weren't suitable for Thai people to follow. Real Thais should embrace the 'Sukhothai' model which seems to be based on everyone living in harmony 600 years ago, and which is the proper Thai way of doing things.

In short, if we stick to nam phriek pla too, we'll be OK. If we go for spaghgetti and hamburger, we'll be in trouble.

So, anyone know what they're adding to the coffee at The Nation offices?
