Leave the Constitution alone

Re: "Charter change won't solve the root of our problems", Opinion, December 19.

 

Tulsathit Taptim was right in saying that the ongoing endeavour to rewrite the Constitution is just an attempt by politicians to “slap” the military. And that nothing good will come out of such an effort.
Coup-makers and self-serving politicians are two equally bad elements for Thailand. If two equally bad guys engage in a fight, the emerging winner will only become the biggest bully in society.
I, for one, don’t agree with those who think this rewriting of the basic law will give us hoi polloi any better life and future.
