[perish__]

thailand has huge income disparity and this is so even in bkk itself.
heard from thai friends that Thaksin help the poor but at the same time he also has a lot of under table corruption. basically, he cuts out a lot of the other rich people from these deals so that he is the main player. hence others are not happy. but my sense from them is that at least he help poor people ..hence his support are mostly up country ..the poorer north east region. (issan etc)


agree with bro tony that thais are generally very nice and friendly people.
hope these end quickly, was planning a trip there some time this month to visit some friends .
