International News: Tailand

On the day of February 20, 2009 an Austrailian author was released from jail. Now, before we get into the fun detail letme tell youa little bit about Tailand. Tailand is a big country located near the south of China. It is a communism with a prime minister/dictator. Now, recently many of Tailand's citizens have been peacefully protesting for a general vote. Anyway, about the author. In 2005, Harry Nicolaides, an Austrailian author was finally released from prison. What was weird is that he's an Austrailian guy, and he wrote the book in 2005. Anyway, the book he wrote was called "Verismilitude." Obviously in this book it talked about Tailand and madevery crass statements about the KIng and to be crowned prince. WEll, I guess that shows that there is no freedom of speech in Tailand. I'm just glad they letthe author out. I really think it's quite crazy. Well, until next time see ya later.
