Thai Democrazy
My friend Stephen sent me an interesting article about the meaning of Democracy in Thailand and opinions on the current civil unrest. It’s a good read and puts things in a certain perspective. Westerners should stop expecting Asian democracies to function the same as Western democracies, though from looking at what’s going on in the U.S.A these days I’m not so sure that deomcracy is really functioning in the West either… but hey, it’s the best we’ve got and in Asia they are also working with the best they’ve got.
