Note
The Asian Times's article "the King's 'Sufficiency Economy' (Localism)" may be misunderstood. "Sufficiency Economy" calls for partial localism - a quarter - not the whole. In other words, "sufficiency economy" is meant to be "partial" localism. It is true that many parts of Thailand still enjoy capitalism. "Sufficiency Economy" calls on those to practice "some" localism particularly those in the rural areas. However, the oppositions see no difference between "Sufficiency Economy" and "Self-sufficient economy", i.e., they are the same as Localism . Kevin Hewison describes the self-sufficient political agenda in Thailand as Populist Localism.

Famous quotes containing the word note:
“To note an artist’s limitations is but to define his talent. A reporter can write equally well about everything that is presented to his view, but a creative writer can do his best only with what lies within the range and character of his deepest sympathies.”
—Willa Cather (1876–1947)
“No, in your rural letter box
I leave this note without a stamp
To tell you it was just a tramp
Who used your pasture for a camp.”
—Robert Frost (1874–1963)
“My note to you I certainly did not expect to see in print; yet I have not been much shocked by the newspaper comments upon it. Those comments constitute a fair specimen of what has occurred to me through life. I have endured a great deal of ridicule without much malice; and have received a great deal of kindness, not quite free from ridicule. I am used to it.”
—Abraham Lincoln (1809–1865)
