Thitinan’s Irrawaddy interview

June 3rd, 2009 by Nicholas Farrelly · Add a Comment

The Irrawaddy’s May – June 2009 edition has a useful interview with Chulalongkorn University political analyst Thitinan Pongsudhirak.  It is well worth a look for those trying to get a handle on the current state-of-play in Thai politics.

I should also note that in same edition there is an interview with Quinton Quayle, the British Ambassador to Thailand, that probes his views on the political situation.

Please note: New Mandala encourages vigorous debate. However, for the moment we will only be publishing high-quality comments that make original contributions to discussion. There will, of course, still be space for pithy, humorous, eccentric and cheeky input. Short and sweet will usually trump long and involved. Repetitive ranting, unimaginative point-scoring and idle abuse will not be entertained. Comments which carry a real name are also more likely to be approved. Thank you for your ongoing interest and contributions.
