Thailand - situation update

Having lived in Thailand over the past two years I have learned from their 2006 military coup as well and their path back to democracy. The coup was bloodless and the only person that I am aware, to hurt was a taxi driver who rammed a tank park on the street because he was frustrated with him in his way. The Thai way back to democracy was well planned and organized entirely by the military coup, the WHO has been to Thailand after. First, a newConstitution was written that provided more protection against government encroachment. This constitution was approved by vote of the Thai population in a referendum. Following the adoption of this Constitution, the people then had a general election in which the same ruling party (renamed as PPP Party), which was overthrown by coups was back in. This party re-elected in a number of reasons, has been chosen, namely, the people was outside of Bangkok in love with the promise of money by statePrograms and tax cuts. The second reason was, as it turns out, was buying votes, we found this in a recent condemnation of the ruling party chief of electoral fraud.

The current Prime Minister Samak Sundaravej Court has some great political error, both internally and internationally such as bringing Thailand close to fighting with Cambodia over the border around the Preah Vihear temple in the world, which was settled in 1962 by. The Thai people alwaysfelt cheated about this and PM Samak had "solved" the problem in a one-day meeting with the Cambodian leader about six months. It has set up a military on the border near the temple in recent months ...

So ... between the conviction and some actions and decisions that did not care particularly for the general population many Thai people are not happy with the current prime minister. The opposition party is staging protests and in the last 3 months or more(As of early September 2008). Peaceful protest is a healthy expression of democracy if the government of the people can express themselves in the open. The protests were unhealthy last week. The demonstrators were met with a rival group of "anti-protesters supporting the current government. The two groups met and led to death and 40 injured. The collision resulted in a "state of emergency" declaration by the Government of concern for the situation in the entireWorld.

But the prospect of things in Thailand is still a very peaceful place to live for everyone. The struggle of the factions was an isolated event and seems to be exactly the left. Thais should not be so out of the situation out of control and escalate the violence to be praised. The emergency declaration is worrying people to attend and therefore the economic situation hurt here affect tourism. Wait so we are allPolicy to resolve their conflicts as Thailand can return smilies to "the land of.
