A dictatorship would be easier

The illegal and illicit government of Thailand, a loyal American ally, has put forward proposals for a new security law that will increase the power of the military, allow for the stopping, searching and arrest of anyone suspected of "sabotage, terrorism, cross-border crime, violence, propaganda, or incitement with the intent to cause unrest" and make civilian and military government officials immune from prosecution.

American government officials were said to be studying the proposal to see what they could learn from this "forward looking legislation" but have otherwise remained silent.
