Thailand challenges IMF’s so-called ‘success’
by Michael O. Billington
The IMF has done “nothing to strengthen the real sectors of the economy,” a former minister told IMF officials at a conference in March. “When industries operate at 50% capacity, common sense tells us that these industries can’t service their debt.... I’m worried that our economic problems will quickly transform into social problems.”

by Lyndon H. LaRouche, Jr.
