Connections and patronage. I don't see that changing any time soon.
I dunno - Thailand is in for a heck of a change sometime in the near future (Not able to elaborate, but you all know what I am referring to), and unless the country goes completely over the edge and ends up like Burma, I have hopes that things will change for the better, perhaps after a period of some turmoil. There are plenty of capable and honest people here in Thailand, it is just that with the present patronage system, they rarely raise to a level where they can excel.
