The Economist on the state of Thai politics

June 19, 2009 By Newley Leave a Comment

A story in the current Economist sums up the political landscape in Thailand.

Discussed here are PM Abhisit, the red shirts, the yellow shirts (and the PAD’s new political party), and the insurgency in Thailand’s south. Worth a read.
