Thais against corrupt populist policies

More than three-quarters of people surveyed in the latest Bangkok Poll said they would reject the government's populist policies if they also bring about corruption.

The survey on Bangkokians' thoughts on ways to solve corruption during the Yingluck government involved 1,039 respondents aged over 18 in the capital city.

The pollster said 79.1% of the respondents were against the government's populist policies if they come  with corruption, but 20.9% said they would still accept them.
