Thaksin embraces Sufficiency Economy

.
In addition to being a strong supporter of Democracy, my new guru is also a strong advocate for Sufficiency Economy:

'Deposed premier Thaksin Shinawatra last night phoned in to extend moral support to the demonstrators and asked them to stay put for three more days.
"Tell your children to come," he told the crowd. "There is something here. Stop going to the mall for a couple of days and lay the foundation for future generations.
"I do not care whether I can return, I do not care. I cannot allow the country to go on like this.
"Let me be the last victim of the brutality of the bureaucratic polity."Thaksin also spoke in English to appeal to the international media, saying the fight was not about him but about the country and democracy for the people and future generations.'

At the sime time it was widely reported that Thaksin's own children had left the country - hopefully not to go shopping!
