	bee! says: Not sure if "most" of us are glad about this change or not But if you ask me. Yes I am. So are my friends. Been waiting for so long. Lot of people on the road today while they're driving pass army office. They stopped their cars and shook hands with soldiers said "Thank you so much !!" with big smiles on their faces. Eventhough, some people didn't like Thaksin but they didn't want to see the coup either. Said they believed that should be alternative solutions. And ofcourse some still look up Thaksin so much. Said that "I don't see anyone else who can replace him" I know it's bad for whole thing, bad for economy, bad for investment. But I can't stand people like him any longer. But it's not the end yet.We still have another 2 weeks to go. Especially now nobody knows that Thaksin is doing exactly. PS. Yeah lot of families went out today with their kids to take photos with tanks! haha.. well, why not Posted 22 months ago. ( permalink )
	bee! says: It's a poll from Suandusit University. Result : 83.98% of Thai people are supporting the coup. In Bangkok = 81.60% support. And other parts of Thailand is as high as 86.36% are supporting this decision of The Royal Thai Army. Posted 22 months ago. ( permalink )
	me_maya says: thank you very much, bee! - the media here in austria gave me a different impression. and I'm glad that this seems to be a turn to the better. (and also, that the violence seems to be over now). Posted 22 months ago. ( permalink )
	bee! says: Never been violence anyway. Did they report that it was violence here? it's been calm since the begining. And still calm now. Posted 22 months ago. ( permalink )
	me_maya says: yes, they (austria's main newspaper "der standard") did indeed: when the news came in first, it was reported that it had been a "bloody overthrow by the military". i just checked, it doesn't say that anywhere now. Posted 22 months ago. ( permalink )
