Regime can't miss chance to reform education

Re: "Reform must cater to ordinary citizens", Editorial, January 31, 2015.
I agree with your editorial that, so long as citizens’ fundamental needs are not addressed, there will still be street protests, and since education reform is still not forthcoming, politicians can still manipulate while sending their own children to study abroad.
The Prayut Chan-o-cha government should make it urgent and imperative that the education system is reformed while it is still in power.
If the government fails this time, the well-to-do will have even more advantage over their poorer compatriots. And those on the bottom rung of society will become even more suppressed and exploited as a result.
Don’t waste more time!
