    K Voranai - a clear and concise summary. Thank you.

    I wonder if for next Sunday's column you could summarise Peua Thai's achievements of the last year.
    Perhaps you could list how many of their policies have been successful. That would be government policies, not private sector successes.

    Of course, if that is insufficient to fill a column, please feel free to list how many verdicts have been overturned, cases dropped and friends of the Shinawatras promoted during the past sixteen months... Much more to choose from there.
