Thailand needs a female PM

[kngdady]

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 an answer? I see a split in the party because there are more seasoned speakers in the party that do not to call Thanksin to get an answer to a question. If you are going to lead, lead.

What Thailand really need is a foreigner to be the PM; Thai cultures do not come into play when you are dealing with the World;
You need to use world cultures when dealing with the rest of the world

Really doesn't matter - man, women, foreigner. If they all fall into the same old establishment system....than it truly is moot.

Woman or not is not important as long as that candidate is capable, honest and has integrity. If the sister is what others expect her to be, as someone who is competent, she must be ready to harmonise all differences and work out a reconciliation path for the stability of the country. If she is that dedicated and genuine, she must be someone who can re-gain the peoples' respect for the system of government, law and constitution. If she cannot make her brother, who is in exile, to come back and face the law of the very country she is trying to lead, on what basis can she expect to restore the peoples' confidence in the judiciary.

Marky is a foreigner, is he not?

Thailand needs a competent female PM.

Dear Namrepus,

Can you please clarify what makes somebody competent.

I guess from your comment(s) that you believe Mr. Abhisit was.

So why don't you make a stong/weak list for both of them.

Hi flippogirl, I think it self-evident why I think yingluck is incompetent; it's the thread of all my postings over many blogs.
Sorry to say; but I think Abhisit was ineffectual and ineffective, but not incompetent. He was too much of a gentlemen in the political ring. He should have used the underhanded tactics so favored by thaksin and his red shirts. In that sense Surayud was also a disaster.

I have no answers, to answer another post of yours in another blog. I just have demands from this governemtn or any governemtn; that the people, all the people of this country are treated with respect, their safety and well-being provided for without favoritism and color. That democracy is nutured and grows without the need to segregate into red villages or fortified towns. We are one people.

I do agree with you there about we should not segregated people or village into colours. But often in your comments you keep mention this term calling them by colour. Do you think Yinkluck is red is that it? Don’t you ever think that she might be a colourless! I think it time we stop using these colour for an excuses to make your point.

I mention the term red to point out that the reds in government have been have been discrimatory in their actions. There is no excuse to make a point, the point is that the reds in this government have shown favoritism. How should they be refered to - those vulgar people, who are part of the yingluck government, who she has put in control of the FROC distribution center and the parcelling out of donations havedone an injustice towards the general population as a whole while the donations pile up.

Dems let the yellows get away with stuff, PTP the reds...it's just traditional political BS. Democracy might be compared to a sports game. When it's going badly, maybe there's some loudmouth on the bench saying can do better. Coach (voters) say, ok you're in and here's the ball. The scoreboard is the best judge. Right now, YS and Thailand zero. Let's all wish for a 4th quarter comeback.
