They're at it again



Now the Thai government is trying to block chains like Carrefour and
Tesco from further investment in Thailand.

Short sighted, again. Just like the attempts to manipulate the
currency to appease shrimp exporters, just like the attempts to break
patents on drugs.

Progress requires change and change means disruption. Block disruption
and you block change and you prevent progress.

I don't know what's going through their heads. It's seems to be a
desparate attempt at populism. Give the people everything they think
they want in order to win their support.

Good governance is all it really takes. I wonder if they'll ever learn
that.
