robaus Posted June 2, 2014 Author Report Share Posted June 2, 2014 Western governments don't give a damn about Thai democracy -- it's not ugly enough, Thailand does far too many favors to be slapped down, and everyone knows Thai coups aren't really real coups, more just a seasonal pruning back of the nation's democratic growth... Someone hosts your black site, you don't go stabbing them in the back over a little coup action... Here's the US military aid response (and yes, that $85,000 dollars... ouch that must really hit Thai military in the pocket book!): Maybe the Thai military dictatorship doesn't give a damn about the chickenfeed US aid. I admire your optimism. Perhaps slowing GDP figures will impress you more. Let's just say the sooner they return the country to a fully functioning democracy the better for the Thai economy. BANGKOK (CNN) – Tourism represents a large cut of Thailand’s economy and it’s been strike tough by a new domestic turmoil. Thailand’s dwindle flies proudly above one a many famous traveller attractions. But today, fewer tourists are walking by a doors of a Grand Palace. Although it is low tourism season, there’s regard a enlarged domestic unrest, martial law and now a manoeuvre are denting a country’s appeal. Tourism accounts for about 20 percent of Thailand’s GDP final year. That translated into $73.8 billion and 2.5 million jobs. Bookings from unfamiliar tourists are down 21 percent given January, and that was before a coup. Those who are already in Thailand have had to change their plans, generally in a arise of a curfew. “At night if we was formulation to go out selling during a night market, or go out and have a splash somewhere, we couldn’t go out anywhere,†one lady said. “I wanted to try out a nightlife, so that’s a shame,†a male said. General Prayuth Chan-Ocha has attempted to control what’s being seen and pronounced about a manoeuvre by holding TV channels, including CNN, off a atmosphere within Thailand. But scenes are still being beamed out around a world, and a night time curfew is impacting both tourists and businesses." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not wanting to derail this in anyway but was that statement really made by CNN? It's unreadable! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
