The Thailand saga has happened so swiftly that many may ask how did Mr. Samak get himself into such hot waters, and why do the people hate him so?

Here's why:

Why was Samak under fire?

#1: Samak was the first to speculate about a military coup, sending the financial markets plunging and forcing the army commander to rush out in denial.

#2: Thailand's economy is plunging and Samak has yet to produce any credible policies to address the issue.

#3: Samak's support towards the Cambodia's bid to have an ancient temple on the border with Thailand listed as a Unesco World Heritage Site sparked a nationalist backlash. - CNA
