Citizen Politics in Checking <strong>of</strong> the State Power for <strong>Equitable</strong> <strong>Allocation</strong> <strong>of</strong> Resources<br />

media, are considered a social network which is virtually the only factor<br />

prompting the government’s willingness to change public policy at a<br />

certain satisfactory level.<br />

Evaluation <strong>of</strong> government performance may be divided into 4 parts:<br />

1. The government, who must check itself; 2. Private businesses who<br />

must perform various legal activities with the government; 3. Social<br />

sectors or civil society/NGOs who can broadly exercise statutory rights in<br />

performing the evaluation <strong>of</strong> the government <strong>and</strong> 4. The media who<br />

must always monitor <strong>and</strong> sniff for the unwanted odors <strong>of</strong> corruption to<br />

make public so society will have awareness <strong>and</strong> opposition to these<br />

people, so corrupt government <strong>of</strong>ficials will be ashamed a they consider<br />

themselves <strong>and</strong> eventually leave the government system.<br />

“Policy Advocacy” <strong>and</strong> “evaluating government performance” by<br />

both “NGOs” <strong>and</strong> “civil society” must be conducted with scientific <strong>and</strong><br />

social knowledge <strong>and</strong> with a positive goal toward every group <strong>of</strong> people<br />

<strong>and</strong> with sufficient supporting academic data for the government’s<br />

decision making.<br />

If we can act as stated herein, Thai people, Thai society <strong>and</strong><br />

Thail<strong>and</strong> will be able to reduce resources <strong>and</strong> budget spending to a great<br />

extent <strong>and</strong> the live <strong>of</strong> Thai people will be improved as never before in the<br />

history <strong>of</strong> our country.<br />
