ECONOMIST: GOVERNMENT RESPONDS
The Thai government has responded to a recent story in The Economist.
Today's edition includes a letter from the Director General of the Department of Information at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. Khun Vimon Kidchob says the story in the October 17 edition: "... painted too dark and pessimistic a picture of Thailand’s political situation."
Regular readers will recall that the distribution company responsible for getting copies of this edition into the shops declined to handle this edition, however subscribers received their magazine as usual and the story is accessible online.

Looks like the govt learned a lesson and is much more careful now before shooting at the usual suspects.
Look how they blocked and unblocked liberalthai within 24 hours ...
To paint too dark and pessimistic a picture is a very subjective and therefore not strong language.
