I do not know if this was a step forward or back for Thailand getting Mr Somchai as new PM. I guess it will be more problem since he is Mr Thaksin brother in law and rule under his shadow.
The PPP and the rest of the small follow parties all voted to make Somchai the 26 PM of Thailand. The questions is do they think about Thailand future or do they only think about how much money they will get.
People I talk to that are living in Bangkok are tired of the political situation that is always the same thing who ever wins the election nothing really happen that is good for them.
