People want govt to solve problems 'even if it takes over a year'

How long did your friend live here for and what did he think was inept ?

So is the price of solving superficial problems , a populist policy if I may say so. worth sacrificing freedom of expression and speech for. ?

What are the Juntas policy on Education , Health and the economy ? Im not really that impressed with clearing street venders and Jet ski operators

How can you 'sacrifice' something that has not been born yet (is this a Maya thing?), you might tell the same as well about 'democracy'? And tell me when, under which government ever here, education and health has truly been a matter of worries... As for the economy, yes, indeed Thaksin, problem was, and still is, his vision of the country's economy has a 'shady' part where the moneys enter his left pocket and a lot less comes out of the right one...

You really should work on sentence structure bangrak, but I gather you think there was a shady element to Thailand's economy under Thaksin. Of course there was, there has always been a shady element in Thailand's economy under all governments, including the military governments. I don't think having more of the same justifies the coup.

Reality--It's NOT more of the same it is LESS , far less than the last 3 years. it has to be. If I wanted to lose the trillion I couldn't.

The 'shady' part in 'Thaksinomics' being for me the space between: the big money coming into Thaksin and consorts' left pocket, and, the lesser money coming out of the right pocket. Investigators should stick their nose in between the man's left and right pocket, whatever a dirty job it will be... Of course, when Thaksin &Co. would not be around anymore (when, please?), others would try to replace him/them, but, maybe, maybe, I hope, structures would have been installed to deny them the access to the Thai people's(!!!) money...

[ginjag]

what, exactly, is the "roadmap"? Has the Junta ever actually described what it is? or is it, "clean out corruption"? Because that's not a road map, that's a goal.

I consider it very wise for 'the Junta' (to quote you) not to have given the Thais any 'roadmap', considering how well the Thais can read a roadmap, it would for sure have lead to a deadend! Let's just hope that, as a Thai driver would, 'the Junta' (to quote you) has any clear idea of where it wants to go to, and, as a Thai driver, goes on its 'experience' and 'gutt feeling' to reach that point, in the end, as it takes quite some more time to reach your destination, when you don't know the 'right' road and are too proud to ask for advice, like a Thai driver...

You hit the nail square on the head. A taxi driver goes on experience and gut feeling to reach their destination. The Junta/government has totally NO experience in politics/government/media/public relations as was highlighted yesterday by a bunch of generals demanding the firing of a news anchor.

No experience but still far superior in handling the country, because you fail to see they are not really controlling everything their top academics are doing that job, from all walks of life.

Your vision Blinkered is a line of uniformed men sat at a table with a blank look on their faces---GET REAL

[Kitsune]

The real question is : where is the money going?

With 2.3% growth in 2013, we should have had hospitals galore, BTS MRT extensions, roads, buses, real properly trained police, better school systems, etc.

Where is the money going?

'Where is the money going?' is a wrong question, 'Where is the money gone?' is IMO the right one to ask. But, as you know, according to the 'principles' of Thai 'education', it is considered very rude to ask questions to any 'authority' (anyone 'above' you), nothing will happen about my question, either... Although here the 'authorities' for sure know, but will keep the answer to themselves, together with the money it was about, I guess...

The situation is still going on

The system is still not providing Thai people with what they are entitled to.

Everyday millions of Bahts are being diverted from public services into private pockets.

[ginjag]

YES. after the diabolical ex PM. it will take years to try to clean this mess up. A friend of mine just arrived with no influence from me or your lot he said A good job someone stepped in to get rid of the last inept regime. So for the last 3 years he had learned what was happening here.

Just to be clear, and resolve your earlier post, are you now abandoning Fiji as an example of a successful military government? Do you have an alternate example?

The last government was inept, one of many inept governments in Thailand's history. I've never argued otherwise. However they tried to hold elections and give the Thai people the option of electing another government, which is how inept governments should be dealt with. Furthermore, nobody has given me any reason to think that this military government will make things better in Thailand. You certainly haven't, and neither has Prayuth.

Do I have to speak about Fiji every post like you do about the PM. Yingluck and the PTP shot themselves in the foot and you still come out with "well they tried to hold elections" sorry they did that for the reason of 180 days amnesty re born. you know that--Shins ploy not Yinglucks, as she never had any idea what was what. Head of the rice committee Ha ha. No one knows the future if things will be wonderful, so how do we do that through a MEDIUM.

[Fatty123]

At least this poll conducted by that high suspect organisation said " even if more than a year. "

I would have thought ' as long as it takes, indefinitely ' etc would have been their preferred terminology.

Yup. But 'more than a year' could be a thousand years

Thank you, but please don't hang your car to my loc, 'the Generals' f...ed up big time yesterday (I'm afraid they can't even realise it) in their 'communication' (or rather the lack of any worth the name in six months), but there's more behind that TBPS 'incident': a TV station financed with State money, where Thaksin has 'installed' many a creature of his, so, IMO, 'the Generals' could have reasons to react against using a State 'antenna' for veiled (but...) propaganda against them, the way they chose to do it though can impossibly be justified, no words for it, and so contra-productive!

But allow me to think, hope, the big(gest) thieves (ever) don't 'own the bank' anymore, and that the Trillions(!) which have 'evaporated' during the 'Thaksin power' years, and which have by miracle 're-condensed' in their deep pockets, should be recuperated, be it with 'special powers' given to 'special courts'!

You have no evidence to support that, and the past history of military governments in Thailand hasn't been good. You are truly an example of "hope over experience."

But why stop at Thaksin when there are many more thieves who have been robbing the country blind all these years ? How can a mere Thai General for instance have a personal wealth of over 600 million, or would that be because some of that money Thaksin stole ended up in his pockets, it surely boggles the mind.

The cure seems to be nothing more than a placebo.

So in other words, you don't deny that shady dealings existed long before Thaksin, and you provide no reason to think they will end with the junta.

What makes an "academic" any more qualified than a military person to run a country? My father was an academic, a professor at one of the colleges at Cambridge University, does that mean he was qualified to run a country?

I think that if Thai people were taught critical thinking skills and not taught to obey the "bigger man", Thailand and democracy would have a chance, but the indoctrination of school children to "follow the leader" will deny this country of real leaders.

Ever heard about the Caste system ? Thailand has a similar system in disguise, and they want to keep it in place.

Hundred years ago it was the same in the western world, the pastor keeps them poor while the mayor keeps them stupid.

[paddyjenkins]

This is a perfect strategy for the general. He will remain in power until all problems in Thailand are solved, meaning probably forever if he likes.

But if one day all problems are solved, he will clearly be the most suitable person to be in power anyway, as no country on earth apart from Thailand will have been able to solve all of its problems which will prove him to be the most brilliant premier In the history of the world and so should clearly remain in power.

So, given the logical certainty of always being in power no matter what, there is no point in ever holding democratic elections.

Hey, you retracted from your earlier promise.

Here is one for you my friend, keep it up.

[northernjohn]

If changes are not made,it will just return to fighting between vested

interests again,that nearly lead to the brink of civil war.

OK the present Govt. is not elected,BUT look at how the last elected

Govt. nearly brought Thailand to its knees,with corruption,infighting,

and wasting a huge amounts of money,if that is the alternative what

we have now is a much better solution,at least there seems to be a

policy to change things,while not perfect,its a start.

The day i dread is when professional politicians return to Parliament,

and the cycle kicks off again,nearly all are only in this game to enrich

themselves,and could not give a toss about the people or the country.

but that seems to be the world over not just in Thailand.

regards Worgeordie We are only pawns in their game.

Agree with you on most of what you say. How ever there have been changes made. Maybe a few months is not enough time to see them. Look at the number of police transferred to do nothing desks. Just my opinion but it seems to me that there is more arrests being made. They are not like the PTP ones where they had all the people on their radar for months before announcing they were going to have a crack down. Seems like the present government is taking them down as they come. Of course there is a long way to go.

What really caught my eye was

Another 72 per cent wanted no violence in the country

Some how that 28% figure worries me. Are they red shirts I have been getting the feeling that most of them were tired of it. Or were they talking about people in the south? Either way it is an awfully big number. But then again I am not a big fan of Thai poll's. It would be nice for the Government to lay out the big bucks and get an outside respectable poll company to do an in depth poll.

Getting pretty hot in the room when people start to ask questions to which you don't have sensible answer, isn't it

That's why you do not deserve a sensible answer.

My question all along has ben give me all the mega achievements PTP had in their 3 years. I have never received answers so Why in hell am I obliged to answer your propaganda-like hate the PM. + I do not answer to you or any baiting questions.

Stop stirring up trouble.

"My question all along has ben give me all the mega achievements PTP had in their 3 years."

I told you elections, but you don't think elections are important. Yet you claim to support democracy.

I've asked you repeatedly for an example of a military government that served the country well, and received no answer other than the Fiji, which, as I and others pointed out, is far from a good example. I asked why you think coups are better than elections, and never received an answer. I've also asked for a reason to believe that the junta supports democracy, still no answer. I've challenged your assumption that the junta will fight corruption with references to recent and historical events, and you've yet to answer any of the challenges. I could go on, but readers get the picture, you're a broken record that keeps playing "I hate Thaksin".
