Thailand's move to legislate laws to force NGOs to
disclose their source of funding is facing strong opposition, both at
home and abroad. You should know who the foreign objections are coming
from and answering that question should be simple enough.
This
move of forcing funding disclosure was started during the Military rule
and is now uncertain with the new leaders in charge. There is a tinge of
doubt that that law will be carried through, with all the attempts to
change Thailand's present state of Government, with even the Monarchy
facing threats.
How much of interference by foreign NGOs in
Thailand leading to this state of affairs is anyone's guess. We have
seen the Monarchy playing a pivotal role in settling Thailand's many
upheavals and the Monarchy is an essential part of Thailand's political
landscape. Getting rid of the Monarchy puts Thailand in a position where
foreign interference can easily upset the balance of power and create
chaos that will not do the country any good. There are always elements
that will leverage on such a situation for their own interest.
I
agree that countries must have Government control over NGOs funded by
foreign entities out to create mischief under cover of humanitarian
reasons.
Oh, let us not forget that the Natives of North America
had their fate sealed for being too obsessed with salvation preached by
the foreign devils and lost their land and their every right in their
own county. Let that be a lesson for others.
