Also in this edition: Vajiralongkorn has still not been sighted, a royalist tycoon is arrested for massive fraud, and harassment of protesters continues
Hands up all those who cheered the coups against the Shinawatras.
Thaksin was a crook, but delivered several good things, and wanted to change the education system to more like the 'West' (For good or bad!).
Yingluk took her orders from T, and had to accommodate crooks to keep a coalition together.
Her rice subsidies no worse than ChanOcha's rubber subs., and infamous, and ongoing, crookery.
The tourist industry will never return to it's old self... Remember the junta wanted to push it 'up market'? No more back packers...plebs...(But lots of dosh!)
All the junta have to do is show live, Vaj on TV, maybe with today's Bangkok Post so we can see the date?! (Like when kidnappers do it).
The discontent is simmering- Maybe the junta allowed the virus to spread deliberately?
Many countries, even Germany, UK, etc., used it as an excuse to stop demos...
I've watched a few episodes of the Girl from Nowhere (New Kid in Thai, I believe) and find it interesting from a culture perspective. It is similar to the kind of ละคร that have a sort of folkloric element. Nanoo is a ghost who essentially punishes evil doers. Quite frequently the evil doers are morally evil flawed by envy, resentment, or sexual exploitation. Of course, they get what's coming to them.
One thing I am struggling with is how Nanoo sometimes contributes to or even incites the immoral behavior and then punishes the person she incited. From a Western perspective, inciting immorality is considered a serious crime too. So, don't understand how Nanoo can be considered a "good" force if she is also doing evil. Please, anybody who has ideas on this, I would be very happy to hear them.
I remember a ละคร from the mid-80's which concerned a lovely, but envious and resentful woman who did a lot dishonest things. She seems to get away with it until she sees that a group of women that she resents are preparing to cook food. She pees in the rice water believing the women that she hates will eat the rice. However, the women are actually preparing food for the Monks. Needless to say she ends up insane, homeless, and covered in sores in the end.

Because of fucking “Cope For The Monarchy” things, in Thailand, seven years has passed with no any signs of better things happen.
