Most people really don't understand why a group of seven Thais, led by an MP, entered Cambodian territory and were arrested by Cambodian soldiers on Dec 29, according to an Abac Poll survey.
The researchers polled 2,085 people over the age of 18 from 17 provinces nationwide between Jan 1 and Jan 6.
The pollsters reported today that 58.1 per cent of the respondents said it was not clear to them why the seven Thais made the trip into the disputed border area, 23.7 per cent believed they went there for the national interest, but 18.2 per cent thought their objective was to further their own interests.
Asked whether the incident had brought out the leadership qualities of Prime Minister Abhisit Vejjajiva, 26.6 per cent agreed but most (73.4 per cent) thought otherwise.
