History repeats itself.

This is the first time I update my blog outside my home. I am at Siam Square, a place where all the Thai teenagers hang out.

I sit in the middle of the crowd. My mind drifts to so many places I shouldn't have. I should spend my time thinking about something not serious, right? No; My mind says.

News about political 'clean up' runs across my eyes. If you learn history well enough, you will see that history repeats itself.

However, I don't mean that we can predict what is going to happen. Instead, things can happen in a different form but still contain the same essense.

A clique who is holding a power will not let anyone invade thier 'territory of interest'.

It's the same everywhere, though a different form.

We must be able to see the truth behind it.

Where is the way out?


Thailand is facing a very hard time politically and economically like her neighbours in the region. The country is divided between the PAD and the anti-PAD group which turns out to be more and more violent. As far as analyses from various sources go, the way out of this complex situation would not appear easily.


Political movements on the street involve a large amount of 'capital', either money or ideology. The sad thing is: all these movements serve the purpose of only a small group of people.


What a shame.
