I haven't followed thai politics in a year. Who sat down in the big chair after lady Taksin was ousted? This is the regime that the military now took power from, right?(Military took power from yellow-shirts?)
If I got some RT article right the military historically sided with the yellows and not the reds, but im confused now
Either way I hope for Taksin to be re-elected. The yellowshirts are basically capitalist rich that doesn't even hesitate to fight Cambodia on their borders just to save their income from tourism(Tourism is well established in Thailand but growing in Cambodia. Thailands nr 1 income that would decline if Cambodia was opened up for tourism more. And if they're fighting on the borders - that's not happening. Since most people come to cambodia threw Bangkok).
