Thailand has its own special version of meritocracy, unlike the meaning elsewhere.

 

Instead of meaning the most talented rise to the top, here apparently it more likely means people rise to the top based on "making merit" to those above them, either by payments, or groveling or whatever. Hence the Thailand meaning of "merit-ocracy."

Don't like it but appreciate the correction

In reality If Thailand had been selecting honest and sincere people who have displayed high capability and high performance for the last 14 / 16 years just imagine how much better everything would be today

I agree but where are those people?

Does Thailand have any of them?

Look at America, so much potential and promise and look at the leaders they choose
