Och här är en till politisk veteran som börjar bedriva opinion. "The Big Jiew", som varit både ÖB och PM. Numera i kappvändarnas Thailand kompis med Thaksin tror jag. Nu vänder han sig emot att nuvarande junta försöker hålla sig fast vid makten för länge. För den som har missat det försöker man nu hänga kvar fem år till genom att under en så kallad "övergångsperiod" ha ett junta-råd, typ nuvarande NCPO som skulle vara överordnad en vald regering.
"Gen Chavalit hosted a news conference at his Bangkok home to publicise an open letter to all "nation-loving" Thais. In it, "Big Jiew" accused the junta of causing conflict and economic hardship.
He said when the NCPO seized power on May 22, 2014 it was able to subdue political conflicts to an extent. But after nearly two years in power, what the military government was doing now has caused even more conflict in the country, as well as stagnate the economy, cut purchasing power and cause exports to slump.
"I, as a military officer with seniority, would like the NCPO to ponder this: Since you have already concluded your peacekeeping role, it is now time for you to hand over power to a neutral committee whose members hail from various sectors to administer the country and allow for an election to be held in 2016 and an elected government to be formed," Gen Chavalit wrote in the letter."
