Thailand to try Yingluck over rice plan
The Supreme Court on Thursday 19th March 29, 2015 accept the case after state accusers charged Ms. Yingluck with leaving of duty in February, nine months after Thailand’s military in a coup. The case rotate around a contentious rice bounty that Ms. Yingluck’s government created in 2011 to buy up grain from Thai farmers at up to double the market price and then store it in large warehouses and want to drive up prices. State prosecutors accuse Ms. Yingluck of failing to manage the policy make its problems became known. This policy causes Thailand with a paper loss of more than $15 billion. But she thinks that the policy was designed to benefit the people and help the farmers. She is confident in her innocence and that the truth will come out.
From my perspective, I agree with the Supreme Court completely. This policy is a populist policy that create for persuade people to elect her and her team to be the government. They do not think carefully, this policy has many problems such as loss of money, farmers be serious because they do not get money from government that there is someone who cannot cope with problem decide to commit suicide. Yingluck does not realize about this policy and the effect after the policy has launched. I suggest that Yingluck and the government should take that money to improve public service in Thailand that nowadays, it is not effective. I hope that the government should attend to the policy and interest of people.
