Shutdown Politics Explained for New Teachers

[TomJoad]

For decades, the Thai elite in Bangkok had their hands in the cookie jar.

Then Thaksin's Party from the north comes along and gains control of the cookie jar.

Eventually, they got their hands caught in the cookie jar, too.

Which meant that the yellow shirts got control of the cookie jar back again (with help from the military).

Eventually, the red shirts found a way get the cookie jar back using "democracy" (two years ago).

So now, Sutep says if he can't have the cookie jar, nobody will have it, and he'll break the cookie jar soon.

Hope this clears things up a little...
