» Give the military regime some credit. At least it has the sense not to ban the Asia edition of Time magazine with Prime Minister Prayut Chan-o-cha on the cover.

» Coup leader Gen (Ret) Prayut Chan-o-cha first mentioned his programme concerning corruption in late May, 2014, not long after seizing power. It was so long ago that there wasn't even a National Council for Peace and Order (NCPO). It was still called the National Peace and Order Maintaining Council (NPOMC).
