Further updated: A deal has been done!

Now we believe it. PPT took all the talk of a deal between the palace and Thaksin with a grain of salt, until today. Now we believe it. Why?

Because of this banner that has suddenly appeared at the top of the Thai E-News blog site. A bastion of what was meant to be red shirt opinion looks like it has turned. Such a remarkable change must mark the existence of a deal. Next we’ll see Robert Amsterdam’s Thailand blog extolling the virtues of the monarchy.

Update 1: PPT were trying to be ironic, while still being disappointed. We are advised that it is “just a header.” We value Thai E-News and wish it well in its work.

Update 2: The logo changed! We are so pleased!
