Some people in Thailand are so blinded by hatref that they cannot see the obvious. So I shall spell it out: political instability is bad fir busiiness. And , in case you hadn't noticed,Thailand had a well-deserved reputation internationally for political instability. So if

Thailand does notf figure out a way to resolve political differences in a democratic fashion, the international community will take its businessl elsewhere. There seem some Thais who have no respect for the democratic process, and this is cause for concern.

The NATION writing something criical of the PM is like Fox News attacking Obama - what would you expect from them?

The NATIONs coverage of Thaksins visit to New York was more of the same. Red shirts cheer,

yellow shirts boo - what do you expect?

The bottom line is this is not news - it is just dumb propaganda . Journalistic credibility has to be earned, and The NATIION lost

Its credibility some tine ago.

Interesting

Who are these people 'blinded by hatred'?

What is this reference to 'resolving political differences in a democratic fashion'?

Which Thais 'have no respect for the democratic process'?

The current ruling party were elected democraticcaly. Democratic elections are but the start of the Democratic process.

Are the ruling party carrying on in 'democratic fashion'? Or, are they taking advantage of an electoral majority to avoid the democratic process?

It would appear that the ruling party are in the driving seat. My opinion is that the guilty party re 'no respect for the democrat process', is actually ruling the country.

Excuses for just picking out this sentence "The NATIONs coverage of Thaksins visit to New York was more of the same. Red shirts cheer, yellow shirts boo - what do you expect?"

Good question! A few possible answers here "only the cheering", "only the booing", "totally ignore", "start writing about the weather". Any of the above will lead to 'knee-jerk' reactions. So wouldn't you say (or even agree) that reporting BOTH cheers and boos could be seen as reasonably well balanced ?

Its fair to say that most segments of International and domestic societies are likewise unimpressed by Yingluck's performance, The exception would be a few forum members who are arguebly very impressed by her, or should that be aroused.
