Thailand is unique and is not falling into communist hands. The bond between king and people dates back thousands of years.
The lack of free speech you speak of is out of respect and not socialism or communism.
If you are the expert on freedom of speech and third world nations do me a favor and next time you're in England call the Queen a nasty name in front of a pub filled with Englishmen...... let me know how that works out.
