The Thais have decided. A Thaksin is back at the helm of Thailand's government. Lucky Yingluck, so to say. What's in store for Malaysia?

Now what has this post got to do with education and schooling? I was led astray and my thoughts were interfered with for a moment. Then I realised you just wanted to use another Mark Twain's quote.

As to the election results it showed that numbers may not be the most important thing to winning: Thaksin had and is still having large numerical support. Rather it is the control of the various instruments of power that will be more decisive, eg the army, the police, the judiciary, and of course MONEY, which trumps them all!

Opps. Sorry about that. I like that portrait, so I used it and it came with a free quote to boot! :D. After so long on the run, his fortune does not seem to be waning.
