Yingluck demands reform from junta (don’t laugh) 

Re: “Don’t waste coup – reform country, Yingluck tells junta”, The Nation, yesterday.

Yingluck trying to tell Khun Prayut how to run the country ... Lol.

Not telling him how to run the country – telling him to do what he said he was going to do, ie reform the country. While there have been a few changes for the better, they are far exceeded by backtracking, taking the country backwards, frightening away foreign investment,  tarnishing the reputation of the country. Yes this government is doing real well! 
She is still allowed an opinion, you know – even though she made a mess of running the country herself. I agree with her sentiments.

The people of Thailand could have voted her out. That’s democracy.

So she finally admits the country needs reform after her failed, disastrous government?

At the last election her party gained over 70 per cent of the vote. She, through her government, had an obligation to try to redistribute Thailand’s huge wealth.
The five cornerstones of Thailand are the Monarchy, Military, Religion, Courts and Parliament. She found out, as did her brother, that democracy, through Parliament, was by far the weakest.

All of her comments are valid. There was a considerable economic cost from the coup (far outweighing rice scheme costs) and no meaningful reform. The economy is a mess, and bombings in the South and Bangkok show that peace and reconciliation have not been achieved.
Apart from submarines and beach chairs, what have they really accomplished?
