" lobbyist "

Before I describe about role and importance of this word "lobbyist" that happened in Thailand. I would like to introduce about the background of lobbyist.

Lobbyist is an agents of a lobby company , founded for more than 100 years ago abd started from a little coffee shop that located in Washingtion DC , near Congress. This coffee shop is a meeting place for The Member of Paliament and The Member of the upper house to discuss between their meeting break. So any person who need any assistance from The Member of Paliament or The Member of the upper house , they will wait and ask assistance from them at this shop. From this negotiation so develope to become a lobby company. They launch the lobby company because the negotaition between client and The Member of Paliament or The Member of the upper house diectly are difficulty. So it is importance to have an agents to response for negotiation between client and The Member of Paliament or The Member of the upper house. Agents come from past Member of the Paliament , past of Member of the upper house or any person who are closely with U.S.A government. These person became founder or co-founded of this lobby company for benefit of their client.

The important point for Thailand about the lobby company is not hire the topflight lobby company , such as Barbour Griffith and Rogers LLC. or the hirers are foreign government. Because their client are mention to get any support from the U.S.A. government. In contrast , Thai government under command of ousted prime minister Thaksin Shinawatra did not require any support from the U.S.A. government but he need to discredit Thailand. In 7 September 2006 , he hired Barbour Griffith and Rogers LLC. - the lobby company to provide guidance and consel with regard to his interest in Washington and abroad.

In my opinion , regarding Thai people , I fell very regret with his action that did with my country. I would like to said "enough is enough with ousted prime minister Thaksin. "
