I live here and this general and his supporters are doing a great job of reversing the in bred corruption that has bedeviled this country for decades. They have restored order and arrested the bomb throwers, the illegal land thieves , cracked down on the taxi mafia ,the jet ski rip off merchants , the corrupt rice pledging scheme and replaced many officials that were taking cash bribes, aiding drug dealers and generally having a field day at the expense of the Thai population. The cynics will say they will soon be as corrupt as the last lot. Just replace bad guys with bad guys. It is far too early to tell but we will see. I for one hope they stick to their pledges of honesty and give this wonderful country back to it's citizens.
