The Lao Government probably do delcare their salary but it's not something the general public is interested in. We only care about how much we earn, and the food we put on the table.

The US President has to serve a minimum of 4 years, so if he is corrupted, voters still have to put up with him during his term since you can't throw him out of office immediately.

Taxpayer, citizens pay government salary. Public have the right to know to reduce corruption. Some people might want to know, how can officials afford private jet or million dollars mansion. But, let say their salary is only $3000 a month. Government officials has to declared all their asset. So does Thai government. Democracy country are less corrupt and more prosper then country with one party system.

US president can serve no more then 2 term, 4 yrs for each term, 8 yrs total. But if he is found guilty of corruption he can get impeach by the congress and senator and force to resign immediately. Not just president any government officials can be impeach. Because of freedom of press and speech they will be all over the news. In Democracy there's a check and balance of power. Nobody is above the law. Not like Hun Sen or Than Shew of Burma these dictator been in power for over 30 yrs.

Most American citizens were against the war in the Middle East, yet George Bush still went ahead with it. The war is also considered illegal according to international law. It's about oil and money for the officials really. This demonstrates that although it can be all over the news, the US President is still above the law because he can do as he pleases.

US president does not have absolute power. Any foreign and domestic policy in order to pass had to have a majority vote by Senators, and Congressmen. At that time President Bush and his the Republican Party has the supported, and enough votes from senate, and house to go ahead with the war in Iraq. President Obama opposed war in Iraq and he is trying to reversed president Bush foreign policy.

Yes most America are against Iraq war. President Bush want Iraq war that is why they are no longer in government. Most of  American citizens vote Democrats Party in and Bush Republican party out. Currently Democrats has the majority in the house and senate and Democrats president. US will pull out of Iraq at the end of this year.

Democrat and Republican Party are the two main politicals party in the US. There're other smaller political party. President Bush is a Republican, most Republican supported Iraq war when they were in power, and few Democrats also. But now Democrats are in power, and the majority are opposing Iraq War. They're trying to end the war. I supported and vote for Democrats Party. "Go Obama 4 more year."

I don't know about in the US, but we don't often hear negative things about Obama. He is generally more likable than Bush.

Doesn't matter which party won presidential election in the US. There was alway criticism from opposition. Some Republican are calling President Obama, and his Dmocrats Party Socialist because of his policy, running up nationals debt, social program helping the working class, poor, student, small business and so on. Same situation when president Bush was in offices. Democrats party also criticize him from left to right, and votes against his policy. "No matter what you, you can never make everybody happy."

The job of a leader is not to make the opposition party happy, but to make the people happy, most of them anyway.

I agreed. Government should look out for it citizens and national interest.  Not just themselves, their friends and family. Foreigner power not going to really care about our country or our family like we do. Government was supposed to be public servant, but that is not the case most of the time. Money and power change people. Those in power or in position of authority want to be there forever.
