I’m not familiar with the ins and outs of Thai politics but it was fascinating to witness the passion, determination and sheer delight when people power eventually forced the Prime Minister to step down on charges of corruption.
A constitutional court found that political parties were guilty of vote buying in the last general election. In Ireland vote buying, through Clientism, is an accepted part of our culture.
Thai people working in Ireland must be amazed to witness how docile the Irish are when it comes to political corruption,

The Irish won’t vote against an incompetent government, how would we manage to vote against a corrupt incompetent one?
