re: "Pro-election protesters dodge anti-unrest group" (BP, January 20)
Dear editor,
Like the promising Thai intellects on the student council of Ramkhamhaeng University, the Facebook group Unity Before Election shows proper Thainess in opposing those actively calling for elections.
Can't these activists be content with promises of an election? Can't they and their ilk be content with promises of unity? Can't they be satisfied with promises to end corruption? Why can't they be happy with promises to respect human rights? Why isn't a promise to return happiness already happiness returned? Why, why, why must they keep asking for more than promises?
The counter groups from Ramkhamhaeng Uni. and Unity Before Election on Facebook understand the prime minister's wisdom pronounced last week advising teachers to lead childish students to think out of the box in a sufficiently structured way. They appreciate that good Thai citizens will structurally close their mouths, ears, eyes, and minds to anything not condoned by their superiors. They respectfully recognize their place before those selfless betters working so hard to make a sufficiency of glorious promises that would sufficiently fill the stomach of any proper Thai who knew her place as ordained by the venerable traditions of Thailand 4.0.
What, after all, is so good about good morals that good people should care for them more than promises of them?
Felix Qui
