The interim constitution and interim Prime Minister selection will be presented to the King tomorrow for approval.

Time will tell if the generals stay out of domestic affairs, as promised.

Hmmm, don’t recall anything like that after 9-11. But come to think of it, I have heard that the guns of people guarding US airports, by and large, contained no live ammo -- lest this pose a security risk.

It must be great to be a Thai soldier and to be received as a hero everywhere, simply because the armed forces got rid of a corrupt regime.

But it’s amazing they did it with no violence, no blood, no shots fired (as far as I know), and with astonishingly little domestic muscle flexing.

All honour to them!
