You are certainly entitled to your opinion but I for one am glad to see someone had the foresight to end Thanskins corrupt reign. No doubt he would have taken the premiership again in October and the country would continue to have been raped by him. At least now the thais and the KIng can have the respect they deserve from a new leader. The king is a well educated and very respected man with nothing but the interest of his people in his heart, if he approved of this Coup than one must think it was for the best. It is very easy for one to sit in the safety of another country and judge the actions of another. I love being in thailand and I hope and pray thet this will bring some relief to the poor.
