The leaders of Thailand which consist of the government and the opposition and a outlaw who happens to direct what the government does and not do. The political climate is burying this once proud people and country to an area which might be to hard to get out. Thailand has to dig itself of this mess...

One day Abhisit will lead the Democrats to victory in a national election because PM Yingluck is limited in her thinking on about how to lead a nation. The country will always be divided as she lets her brother do all the thinking for her. He went down and fled Thailand and he will do to Yingluck as...

When I read, talk to people or just watch I get a bad feeling about what going on in Thailand, not just in Bangkok, Phuket, Chiang Mai, Pattaya and in the deep south and have been to all of these places. There is no trust, respect from local venders to government officials. The poor steal to eat, th...

How is Yingluck doing as PM of Thailand? Has her promises and new policies changing the political climate and the unification of the Thai people. Have the minimum wage that was promised for the poor, is that policy still in place or was it just political talk. I know the PM is the leader of the coun...

Marina, what makes you think that Abhisit caused the political divide in Thailand. I do recall Thailand was in total trouble because of corruption and dissatisfaction for most Thai people while Thaksin was MP. Marina you have not seen nothing yet if the current government even thinks about sliding T...

Amnesty will not bring on reconciliation because of one man(Thaskin) he has let the red shirts do his bidding and some good men out of the loop within his own party. Who is he to dictate policy on Thai society as a convicted criminal. In a way I feel sorry for his sister Yingluck because of her inex...

Yingluck Shinawatra now in the political arena. What I am hearing in Thai politics is that they do not debate each other. How are the people going to know what they stand for. Yes, you have to be a good speaker to be a good leader. If Yingluck gets a question does she have to phone her brother for a...

Ms Yingluck is only in a situation that her brother the Snake put her in. Thaksin has been a disruptive force in Thai politics since his conviction and exile. The people he controls are the people who are drawing a paycheck while the poor are promised everything but actually get nothing. Ms Yingluck...

Thailand and the United States have good relations and we respect each others law. If Thaksin steps foot on American soil he should be arrested and extradited back to Thailand at the request of the Thai government. He is not a government official so he does not have diplomat status. As a American an...

I was in the south of Thailand in a place called Satun about 30 km from the Maylasia border and all the Thais weather they were Muslim or Buddhist got along great without no police or military activity. I thought all of south Thailand were having trouble with insurgents but as I spent 2 weeks there ...
