Whatever Banharn's motives, he needs the grand thinking to extend his dwarfism. Remember the inaugural ASEM meeting 1996 in Bangkok? Hosted by then-Prime Minister Banharn Silpa-Archa. Was impossible to see him behind Germany's then-Chancellor Helmut Kohl. Even good old Suharto was in town back then! - overtowering Banharn. Who clearly enjoyed his role as the great chairman of the event. Guess he's still fascinated by these "ego-extensions" - and therefore goes for any major office, at whatever cost. <a href="mailto:absolutelyBangkok@gmail.com" rel="nofollow">BangkokDan</a> Agreed, SukhumvitFrank.

But with one exception, ironically exactly the lines which begin with that very word <em>chapeau</em>: There's for sure no motivation of high ethical standards behind Banharn and company to join the PPP bandwagon, but only pure opportunism, the only guideline of their actions since years and years ...
