Problem with Thai people is most of us are used to have a comfortable life.
Thailand barely has any natural disaster that cause catastrophic damage, we have plenty of food, and last war we actually went in was more than two centuries ago. While those things seem great, it creates one thing in people's mind - selfishness. Politicians and bureaucrats corruptions become normal and more acceptable because plenty more they don't corrupt are able to make it to lower class. They forget that's not their money(Government actually bought BlackBerry for every sheriff in the country).
We have to struggle, once in a while, or have a leader that doesn't corrupt the pineapple out of everything and actually do something to the country. I'm not saying that we should have World War every half century, but war gives some benefit to the mankind; it makes people on the same side more united.
As for the rest of the world, I think it's good enough right now.
