These questions are answered below:

Why was Joshua WONG blacklisted and deported from Thailand?

Almost every year since 1983 the US Congress has allocated US Government funds to the National Endowment for Democracy (NED) to ‘strengthen democracy’ around the world.

One of the ways the NED does this is through mounting ‘color revolutions’ to topple legitimate governments and replace them with US subservient systems. Every country in Asia is now aware of the chaos caused by the NED organized Middle East – North Africa (MENA) color revolutions and as a result, now appreciate the threat that NED activities pose in their own countries.

They are also aware the Occupy Central protests/Umbrella Movement was a failed color revolution mounted in Hong Kong by the National Democratic Institute (NDI). The NDI is the Democratic Party wing of the NED and  one of the NED’s four core grantees, so because the NED are still funding activities in Hong Kong, almost every country in Asia is watching things here closely. Joshua WONG is an NED puppet and the willing face of the NED color revolution in Hong Kong.

What threat does Joshua WONG pose to Thailand?

Joshua WONG as an individual is insignificant. He poses no threat to anyone, but when he is being manipulated as a tool of American foreign policy, he poses a very real threat to the National Security of anywhere in Asia where the NED is funding activities, including Thailand. The reasons for this can be found in two US Government funded strategies:

The NDI target youth in their programs

The NDI consider youth as a key component of NDI programs. As early as 2004 the NDI were working to develop youth activists in over 50 countries and today those countries include China (Hong Kong), China (Taiwan), Thailand, Malaysia and others. To show the importance the NDI place on youth, here are details from the NDI 2012 Civic Update on Youth Programming:

The NED is building networks of cross-border activists

In the NED 2012 Strategy Document, one of the NED’s key goals is building cross-border networks of democracy activists, of whom youth are a key component.

Joshua WONG is a component in this NED cross-border activist network in Asia. The issue is, Asian leaders have seen how the NED has destabilized nations across the world with their color revolutions, so they will quite rightly take all legitimate means to ensure their countries are not next on the list.

Our advice to Joshua WONG

Rather than bother the Hong Kong Government, we recommend Joshua WONG and all of his student activist friends check with their American handlers before making any future travel arrangements. They after all are the people with the most up-to-date information on where the NED are funding subversive activities and more importantly, which country is next in line for a color revolution.
