re: "Government admits election delay" (BP, January 4)
Dear editor,
How terribly unfortunate for Deputy Prime Minister Wissanu Krea-ngam and his government that the latest permanent constitution that they had made up "is set in stone," thereby constraining them absolutely.
It would be fascinating to run a poll on which the Thai nation finds more credible: 1) that the politicians who smashed the previous permanent Thai constitution (clearly set in a more fragile type of stone) to get their own way to do whatever they wanted for themselves and allies truly did not realize that there would a coronation in due course and plan accordingly; or 2) that they had written this latest excuse for breaking a promise into their original roadmap as planned well in advance of May 2014?
