"Thousands of protesters remained camped out at the prime minister's Bangkok office compound, known as Government House, where leaders called for 1 million people to join their ranks to demand an end to Samak's seven-month tenure.

Saying that Western-style democracy has allowed corruption to flourish, the protest group wants a new government with a parliament in which most of the lawmakers are appointed and only 30 percent elected."

If any of you knew ANYTHING about Thai politics, which is entertaining to watch, you'd know these faggots called the "PAD" are people even the Lao people should be disgusted by.

People that, in the name of their king, vow to take down the current government and restore to a pathetic monarchy.

Its easy enough, make it so that its 70% elected, and 30% appointed.

Its ironic how such a topic about Democracies leading to corruption would show up near the topic about 100 billion kip lost because OF corruption in Laos.

Western democracy is not suitable for Asian at all, each country there have specific situation, culture and the way of life. Safety, peace and security are the first  and priority for sociaty and country, no peace , no security  is means no development  and no justice.the leader of each country is not perfect 100 percent . please come to talk ,exchange and  share expereince with lao Government how to handle and secure the safety for people, what is the first your concerned, security or democracy ? Development , human rights of individual or collective rights ?


Lao people.
