I agree with Bucky's comments. Steve owes us nothing. And this is a blog, it makes no pretense to be a "serious newspaper" and is packed with some great reads and insights into Thailand.
Back to the topic, definitely no businessmen for PM. It needs someone who understands and can uphold the rule of law -- a former judge, for example.

George, you clearly have a bone to pick with Steve - maybe he said something about you or your work in the past. Anyway, as you have started to attack the integrity of this site, as well as the personal slander, we have now started taking action to trace your path. By Thai law we have to keep records of all people posting comments for 90 days which includes your ip address, how you came to our site and also the exact time you were connected to the Internet. So, we are going through our records now. We will be sharing these notes with owners of other forums and blogs to see if we can find a pattern. I am sure you are posting in the same style elsewhere.

What are you on George?
Whatever it is, I don't want any of it!
Why don't you take a look at this site's sister "ThailandQA Forums" -you will not find one single good word about PAD.
Next time, make sure you do your research properly before posting -that way, you may not end up posting such rubbish!

Thing is that Cleary has attacked numerous journalists for bias and for having, what he terms, "agendas".

Yet it is very obvious that Cleary has his own agendas and bias - namely as a pro-PAD, anti-democrat.

Unless he can offer at least an attempt at balance, his writings on politics should be dismissed as irrelevant student missives.

At present this site is a mouthpiece for the PAD and deserves to outed as such.

Good stuff!

"Don’t vote for any businessmen; if he wins, he’ll be paying far more intention on winning contracts for his company than of your whimsy complaints." that should be attention, not intention.

george,
Weird. I had never felt Steve "owe" us anything. It just happens he has a PAD friend and he took the opportunity to "interview" him and wrote it down for us readers on his blog.

Steve says he doesn't know any pro-gov people. Why? You mean Steve owe us this interview and he has to spend time looking and interview one? If you do know any pro-gov people, why don't you interview them?

This is a "free" forum and Steve doesn't owe anyone anything. Get this.
