"Astute information specialist?"
With an MBA in information management myself (Colorado USA), I think I can attest to the idea that in Thailand there is much more information mismanagement and repression, selective filtering and guided release of alleged 'facts' and 'truths' than meaningful circulation of credible information and reliable honest statements, actions and reports of those statements and actions. There is also rampant disregard for human rights and the need to protect those rights via prohibition of violations.

"Among LIES to soil country foundation, Lese Majeste is the most frequently used. Agent Provocateurs foolishly believe that if charges are filed against them that they will make threats to continue telling the world that such law can be easily abused which is far from true, they will also try to use language like “draconian laws” to discredit even the laws of the land that they live in."
I tell you, I can not honestly tell the difference between communist dogma and this dogma. Perhaps the only meaningful difference is that is seems to be gripping Thailand around the throat and squeezing responsible freedom of speech AND legitimate democracy to an ever more quickening death.
A psychiatrist needs to be called in. As well, an English editor to correct the obvious grammatical and substantive errors in Laksan's tirade. The second comment, for instance, that says, "Lese majeste is the most frequently used (lie to soil the country) might be an English language error on Laksana's part, but it poetically describes the actual situation - does it not?
