The 1932 Revolution mindset ended in 1946. Modern politics is a return of the political consciousness of military generals that people were seen nowhere in political history," he said.
Thai democracy is now very old and therefore needs some genetic engineering, he added.
Meanwhile, as various groups of political activists use the commemoration of the 1932 Revolution as an occasion to launch campaigns, children of the Promoters doubt whether Thai society really remembers the spirit of the 1932 Revolution.
"I am sorry that neither the government nor the media recognise the promoters and their role," said Chirawat Panyarachun, a daughter of Field Marshal Phibun.
Chirawat will join the children of other members of the 1932 Revolution for the annual religious rites at Wat Phrasri Mahathat tomorrow, to commemorate the event and pay tribute to those who brought democracy to the country.
Though the country's 18th constitution is being drafted under the current military regime and will be put to a referendum in the next few months, Charnvit sees it as being part of a vicious circle in the country's politics.
"It's a pity that this constitution will not be the last. We will see more coups and more constitution drafting - a waste of time, money and brains."
