I suspect Prasan Stianrapapongs’ cheek is still aching from his tongue-in-cheek missive. Surely the offenders at the Asean summit were the armed section of a demagogue’s empire supported by all of the parties except the Democrats, including their enforced coalition partner. The police were also partisan in loyalty to their “Big Brother”.
I thank Prasan for alerting me to a new danger. I had supposed that the move to stop one party from ruling was an attempt to stop the demagogue’s return. Perhaps it is to stop an honest man, well educated in political philosophy taking complete control of the government.
