Monty Python Politics: The expanding role of the courts in Thai politics
Wednesday, 1 October 2008 · 1 Comment
First let me be clear: I think the use of the court system, and having a judiciary that is as powerful as the other branches of government is a good thing. I applaud the courts, the Election Commission and other government officials in Thailand that are applying the rule of law to govern the behavior of politicians here in Thailand.
It’s one way to send a message that corruption and favoritism are at an end.
And yet, the frequency of the court cases is disquieting.
