klikster, The implication of your post was that you think that the PPP (and TRT before them) had been democratically elected, and that the military had used underhand and undemocratic tactics to try and ensure the Democrats won this time; this makes it appear as if you support the PPP/TRT/Thaksin a...

Maybe but since you've also picked apart stuff I have posted on a very quiet Bangsaphan forum I have to question why you seem to have a problem with me. http://bangsaphanguide.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=56 LOL! Speaking of off topic. Okay, ...

As opposed to picking apart almost everything I write on this forum how about reading and ingesting some of it first? First, a comment. I did read the article. I think it's biased, which is why I commented as I did. My comment first comment (the one you selectively quoted) was about the article. I ...

Re: Show and tell time for Samak

The military junta did everything short of stuffing the ballot boxes And so did Thaksin and TRT if you recall. Your selective context quoting is duly noted, as is your bias against Taksin and TRT. But what does your comment have to do with the "democratic vindication" of the last election...

Re: Show and tell time for Samak

The mainstream media have portrayed the PPP's election win and its formation of a coalition government as democratic vindication against military rule and for the exiled Thaksin, who was ousted in a September 2006 military coup and is expected in the coming months to return to Thailand to face crim...

Re: Cataracts

Just found out that I have cataracts developing in each eye. Sometime in the future will need to have them operated on. Has anyone had a cataract operation? If so, where and what likely cost are we looking at? I had implants in both eyes about 4 years ago. Cost me Bt 70,000 from "Wavefront&quo...

Yes many Thais are ignorant of their own history. The Burmese conquered them twice.

First liberation was by HM Naraseuan, The Great .. the second by HM Taksin, the Great.

Another great chunk of Tourism PR for Thailand. :?

Pai is touted as a calm and idyllic nature destination. I doubt that next year's high season will be as lucrative for the folks struggling to make a few bucks.

Returning exiled ex-PM; PPP Party - anything sound familiar? When was the last time a national political figure was assassinated in Thailand? My recall may not be total, but I don't remember one. Yes, I know there is always a first time, but you're comparing "mostly Buddhists" to "mo...
