  Last year the yellow ones almost ruined my holiday with their illegal occupation of the airport but I managed to slip through just in time and filled my boots for the next month. Could care less who runs your country or should I say I care the same amount that the thais care for the rest of the world, if they even know one exists. It looks like there will be another tsunami Mr. Abhisit but this time it will be red....hold on tight!

  Hmmm...sounds like someone didn't get their "tea" on time and now their not happy! What goes around, comes around and someday this illegal government will get what it deserves...to be voted out of office and replaced by a government ELECTED BY THE PEOPLE!

  Subin Lanathai - I agree totally with your view.

  When you said, ".......We are all disappointed with you, Abhisit", do you mean that we are also disappointed same as Abhisit about Chavalit ?
  If so, that's ok.
  
  But, if you are actually saying that we are all disappointed about Abhisit, then I have to say I don't agree. It's because you can't say "we are all ..." when you know only you and some red-shirts are taking this view and this doesn't include all other people's views.
  
  If Abhisit really did nothing at all in nearly 1 year, do you think he can still be PM ? If you were right, I am sure that the army will not support Abhisit anymore and the demonstrations against the Government will consist many more general public other than just red-shirts.
  
  Be realistic ! Red shirts don't like Abhisit to be PM and yellow shirts don't like Thaksin to be PM. Ask yourself from your heart : who is the best person to be PM in Thailand ?
  
  By the way, I am not the supporter of Abhisit. But, I just don't like biased opinion especially those were paid to write all these replies pro-Thaksin.

  Well Steve, No-one who knows me would desribe me as Abhisit's spokesperson; but wasn't it Thaksin's toadies that poured cold water on the constitutional reform process that they themselves had been demanding so vociferously? An all party constitutional reform process which, incidentally, Abhisit pressed ahead with despite opposition from many in his own ranks.

  "I'm disappointed in Gen Chavalit because I thought he re-entered politics to bring about reconciliation, but so far his activities have created problems between Thailand and Cambodia," he said.
  
  So, Khun Abhisit, can we take it from this comment that you have now finally "re-discovered" the need for reconciliation? Seems that for most of this year you've 100% forgotten about it - after all your fine words last December about it being one of your core principles and policies. Care to get one your many spokesmen to tell us what you've actually done to promote reconciliation since then?

  Guys, what are we fighting for here?
  
  Let's face it, there is no one in the country good enough to run it, and no one apparently prepared to do good for their country.
  
  The country reeks of disunity and for this reason it will suffer a long hard recovery.
  
  Can not blame politicians for the situation. This problem was created by the people of the land, who COULD have done something (and still CAN do something) to change the way it is governed.
  
  It begins first with ideological change and educational reform. Then with the acceptance that foreign aids can be helpful in resolving the crisis. There's nothing wrong with getting a little help from your friends...

  It is obvious that some of you guys have forgotten about the disastrous years that Chavalit was PM of Thailand when he and his corrupt friends almost destroyed the Thai economy with the crash of the Thai Baht. He was kicked out shortly afterwards.
  
  Go Abhisit at least you have the balls to stand up to these corrupt looney's!

  @22 - How about they trade, Thailand can have the 1 sq, Km at the temple that you harp on and the Khmer's can have to 250,000 Rai they lost to Thailand, a fair trade. You should really go to the Northeast sometime and look at the architecture it's predominantly Khemer. Then maybe the Burmese will ask for Chiang Mai and Chiang Rai back. Read your history before making statements about land claims, every country in SEAsia has lost or gained from it's neighbor over the last 2000 years.

  I guess Abhisit is one of those leaders who likes to shoot the messenger. I can see the government taking this too far and the Thai people turning against them.
