N2  - Examines civil-military relations in Indonesia and the Philippines following the military coup in Thailand in 2006 to see whether conditions in those countries predispose them to follow Thailand's example. Concludes that despite achieving independence at about the same time political development and the extent of military economic interests in the Philippines and Indonesia has been quite different. In both cases the armed forces are powerful institutions but in Indonesia civil-military relations appear more stable, whereas the Philippines military seems less content with its lot
