Sorry but getting only 6.9 out of 10 is barely a passing grade. And if this were school, she wouldn't get accepted into a University with her grades (of course with her family connections grades don't matter for college admission). And less than 25% praised the government for its efforts (other than the drug "war", which is all smoke & mirrors anyway).

The results of this poll are just as lackluster as Yingluck & the PTP's performance as the government.

Welcome to the rest of the world and SE Asia. You are not the only one suffering cost increases as same goes in Cambodia, Vietnam, Laos and Philippines and the rest of the world. YS does the same as all the other PMs do. "You can please some on the people some of the time but you can't please all the people all of the time"

The one I like best is the poll where Yingluck was rated as the most decisive ever.

I guess it's true in one sense as her response to any question is: I will appoint a committee na ka - next.

Polls after polls have the same outcome. Even if you dislike the government, there must come a time that you have to accept that the government is doing a good job. More important that the DP realize this trend and change their strategy.

Who on earth do they ask!, corruption at its highest, ministers saying they lie, ministers knowing about graft, an amazing headline but totally false, it should be a negative figure, and I am still awaiting compensation for the floods, I could go on and on!
