A majority of people want the government to continue with the rice pledging scheme and join hands with the opposition to prevent Bangkok from flooding, Abac Poll said.

A poll was conducted on 2,171 people between Oct 1-6 in Bangkok, Samut Prakan, Nonthaburi, Chiang Mai, Phitsanulok, Nakhon Sawan, Nong Khai, Udon Thani, Khon Kaen, Nakhon Ratchasima, Ubon Ratchathani, Ayutthaya, Lop Buri, Ratchaburi, Nakhon Si Thammarat, Surat Thani and Songkhla.

Most of the respondents, 87.6%, knew of the rice pledging programme. Of these, 68.3% said the government should continue with it despite opposition.

    So the majority of the people want the rice pledging program to continue... it shows how little people know about what is going on in their country and this is the reason why corrupt governments filled with incompetent people can win elections, do what they want and stay in power - wake up please.
