I have to refer to the original news report, alas.
"Ms Yingluck said the proposal of the reconciliation bill was part of the government's policy to promote reconciliation and the government believes it is appropriate to push ahead any move which can help the country move forward.
There have been many recommendations for reconciliation, and the country will have no way out of its problems if the government does nothing, said the premier.
Ms Yingluck noted the content of the bills should first be considered, as the ongoing reconciliation process is just beginning with dialogue.
The prime minister however said she has not yet seen all the details of the four proposed reconciliation bills but said she believes that all the bills share the same aim to end conflicts and move forward.
Following concerns that the bills will benefit her brother, ousted premier Thaksin Shinawatra, Ms Yingluck said it was too soon to talk about the result as the process has just begun and the bills' contents still need to be discussed and adjusted through deliberation in parliament.
"I understand that it is difficult to ask everybody to forget the past but I am asking everyone to offer forgiveness in order to reduce conflict. If we do not begin with forgiveness, how can we move forward?"
-----------------
1. "the government believes it is appropriate to push ahead any move which can help the country move forward."
Humbug. Any move? What she means is any move her advisors, red-skins, will manipulate in order to hide the ST return.
She is PM, and she's asking how can we move forward with out alternative options? How pathetic!
---------------
2. "There have been many recommendations for reconciliation, and the country will have no way out of its problems if the government does nothing..."
Well she just said that in 1.) but said there was no option, but then goes on to say 'many recommendations. Did she forget what she said, in 3 seconds? Likely, yes, as that's what bimbos do! AS for the government doing nothing, apart from following one option, isn't she the leader of the government?
----------------
3. "as the ongoing reconciliation process is just beginning with dialogue."
Bull shit! There is no dialogue. The red shirt MPs and leaders just want to close the house and get their one option plan approved by the courts that they have backhanded a huge amount of money to, whilst they think opposition will not realise, hence the barrage outside the house, as the yellows are not stupid!
----------------
4."The prime minister however said she has not yet seen all the details of the four proposed reconciliation bills but said she believes that all the bills share the same aim to end conflicts and move forward."
Well how unbelievable of a primeminister to comment upon information unseen or unknown. What she does say is that whatever they contain is all the means to one end - and we all know what that is! If that [sic] fatherless man [unsic] is allowed to return he will return as a dictator, no questions asked, and her comments allude to that attitude.
---------------
5. "Following concerns that the bills will benefit her brother, ousted premier Thaksin Shinawatra, Ms Yingluck said it was too soon to talk about the result as the process has just begun and the bills' contents still need to be discussed and adjusted through deliberation in parliament."
Aye, adjusted to make sure the are no F ups in it that might just have been missed, and make it illegal still for his return, once the bills are passed. Deliberation in parliament? Just aint going to happen, which is why they are planning a secret hideaway, with a secretly, unbelievably higly paid court that will be illegally elected at some time in the near future!
----------------
6. "but I am asking everyone to offer forgiveness in order to reduce conflict."
If nobody forgives my brother then there could be a massive red-shirt movement and violence as much as we can create to oust the democratic party. What you don't see lady is, that despite denials, the army is more than ready to step in with a coup and oust you, if you put one foot wrong in order to bring your brother back. You're not as powerful as you think - heed my words!
----------------
In essence, I have never seen such an unprofessional group of words from a leader in all the history I have read.
The fact that she knows nothing of the content of the bills, but supports them is astounding - but then not - as she is never at her post and even if she were she probably wouldn't understand what is going on.
What a loser. What a female nobhead. What a disgrace to this beautiful land.
I am abhorred.

Police said Willinton Quintero was arrested for theft and had been imprisoned for two years and three months.
I suppose this was in Thailand?By my knowledge i can be wrong but don't you get deported and blacklisted after you done your time???Back in the time you could easy fix to stay but that time is over these days I know only of some foreign drugdealers that are"allowed" to stay and work with the police and ofcourse for themself but never heard of foreigners that could stay after offences like this in recent years but then again i could be wrong.
I know personaly somebody blacklisted without ever doing something wrong in Thailand,his only offence was that a Europe country was asking for his arrest and deportation the guy have property a Thai wife and a Thai child,after he did his short jail term in Europe the guy boarded a plane to BKK and was sended back straight away......blacklisted forever without commiting 1crime in this country...
Sorry?
Yep it was in Thailand, but he just got arrested on Thursday - so he's got a bit of time to serve his time yet.
I don't think this article was written 2 years 3 months and 2 days ago.

I understand the the tendencies to laugh and joke about things one doesn't understand but how about a little respect when it comes to dead and beliefs that help people mourn. People'd beliefs and they way they show respect to the dead shouldn't be ridiculed unless you consider these people somehow not deserving of the same respect you likely give westerners that may also believe in things and have rituals that defy logic and science and have throughout history resulted in the deaths of millions because of these illogical beliefs.
<deleted>?
Another believer in scientific non-proof. There is no way you are Buddhist, my son...
Nothing wrong with respect for the dead, don't get me wrong; but for you to suggest that we don't believe in things that defy logic or rituals or deaths because of illogical beliefs?
Nope, we generally don't believe in things that defy logic - it's called Bull Shit.
Rituals are for the insane.
Deaths because of illogical beliefs? How about Sun Yat-Sen, who believed he was the brother of Christ himself, or how about the illogical beliefs of Thaksin Shinwatra who believed that drug takers were out to get him, so he slaughtered 2,000.... for a bit of attention.
Get real,..... your post is poop, for once!

"More reports of people hearing the babies crying have come to light as well. Four police officers working the night shift Plabpachai Station said they heard crying noises and whispers coming from the evidence cabinet where the six fetuses were kept. Female police officer Jittima Thongchai gave the babies an offering of red Fanta soda and drinking yoghurt, and several police swore they heard a whispering voice say “the white chubby lady is very kind” in response.
The superintendent and officers at the station said they are not afraid of ghosts, but that they want to show their respect. As the Thai saying goes, “you may not believe in ghosts, but don’t disrespect them,” the superintendent said."

I'm not sorry to say I have no sympathy for her whatsoever.
To send that kind of money to somebody purporting that they have millions, of thai baht that is, is just madness.
To connect with somebody online that doesn't have a webcam, and agree to marriage, is just downright thick!
Any woman with half-sense would be aware or very wary of dupes and scams.
So there we have it: She didn't see him once on a live webcam (which would be the normal thing to pursue), had no idea what he looked like, sent him a ridiculous amount of money, offered marriage to a guy she had no real idea about but said they had fallen in 'love', and ended up duped.
More fool the thicko, even if this guy was a scam artist.
Thai girls need to learn their lessons, just as farangs had to over the years!!!!

The emotions of fear, jealousy and bitterness are discernible in this thread. Why are comments unrelated to the specifics of the man's comments posted? Character assassination is the m.o. of the bitter brigade, once again. Snide comments made about education, coming from people with limited education. Fascinating insight.
"Snide comments made about education, coming from people with limited education"
I stand by my comment, snide or not. He is what he is, a "daddy's boy" and a spoiled one at that, and he exhibits all the characteristics of his ilk, the sort of people, who when questioned or stopped are often heard to say " Do you know who my father is?" or " Do you know who I am?"
This son of Thaksin may have been to school and university but that doesn't necessarily make him an educated person, since university degrees can be purchased as easily as a paperback, and not just from KSRd.. His university history speaks volumes by the way.
He is not an example to the youth of Thailand and to be perfectly frank I doubt that without his father's money and influence, the young chap would be fit to clean my windows.
And one only needs to look at Dhanin Chearavanont to see that a guy at the top never bought a degree, admits he never went to Uni, AND is Thailand's richest man, as owner of CPF.
He's clean, doesn't play politics, works on his lot, and maintains his own lot. He is an example, although he has the poorside of being from a Chinese immigrant family that came here with nothing. He didn't need police members of his family, and nor has he ever been corrupt.
Honesty can pay in Thailand, and take you to the echelons of the top title!!

I'm just trying to get my head around the cost of 3.82 billion quid/ or 6 billion dollars for 12.73Km of uplifted rail road.
I just can't do the maths/math to equate the cost.
Can anybody help here?

I think it just needs to be very heavily emphasised that the offers of financial payout as opposed to jail terms in Thailand are a complete misdemeanour, in comparison to most other countries of the world, and something needs to be done about it.
3 years in jail or the offer of an alternative of 6,000 Baht fine is ridiculous.
3 years in jail should equate to something like 5 million baht, just for starters. 6,000 is a complete insult to the victim or their family.
A serious legal review of comparisons is needed.
Theft from a house..... 6 months or 300 Baht fine.
It's no wonder those at the top are laughing down at everybody, because whatever they get caught with they just roll out the cash and the corner of the mat is lifted, without report.
Yet, there's nobody in a top position to take any of this on - as they are all in the same boat when it comes to getting their servants to lift the mat.
It stinks thru and thru, and it comes - like diarrhoea - thru your genes too!

I say, " If any personal action, like killing somebody with a gun, caused victims to feel that they would not receive justice the laws about rich people's kids getting away with blue murder should be changed and improved during the deliberation process."

While they're at it, regarding waste, why don't they start charging 7/11 for giving 2 plastic bags for 2 things bought?
The amount of plastic bag residue left around the natural areas of Thailand is a disgrace. The amount of plastic bags issued by Tesco Lotus, for example, is tantamount to negligence. You can buy 4 different classes of food and get upto 8 bags.
I usually make queueing people wait, take out and exchange my foods to the correct bags, frozen with frozen, veg with veg, toiletries and sanitores, and tinned foods with pre-packed foods etc and hand back half of what they issue to me, and say thanks but no thanks.
Toxic waste is a serious issue - but so are things like billions of plastic bags in the environment!

Sorry to informall you guys, but it is only the Grade 1 i-pods being introduced from China that will receive these initial HD trial runs.
You'll have to queue up, like the other 800,000 kids this year, then the 1 million for next year and so on, whilst delivery logistics is sorted out on how to manufacture these things on time - JIT supply, if you like.

"16 batches of counterfeit 100-dollar banknotes and a fake Liberian passport.
The Liberian was charged for money fraud and overstaying his visa. He will be deported to his home country and put on a blacklist."
The Liberian was charged? HTF do they know he's Liberian, if he has a 'fake' Liberian PP?
Where, exactly, are they going to send him to again?

Dangerous for the BIB, because as they collect the 1,000 Baht note they will probably not be carrying a ruler!
This isn't going to change a single bit of the Taxi scene in Thailand, or the illegal drivers. However, the boys will be stopping every cab they can see in the hope of a 1,000Baht payment!

On Friendship.....Kahlil Gibran.........Your friend is your needs answered.He is your field which you sow with love and reap with thanksgiving.And he is your board and your fireside.For you come to him with your hunger, and you seek him for peace.When your friend speaks his mind you fear not the "nay" in your own mind, nor do you withhold the "ay."And when he is silent your heart ceases not to listen to his heart;For without words, in friendship, all thoughts, all desires, all expectations are born and shared, with joy that is unacclaimed.When you part from your friend, you grieve not;For that which you love most in him may be clearer in his absence, as the mountain to the climber is clearer from the plain.And let there be no purpose in friendship save the deepening of the spirit.For love that seeks aught but the disclosure of its own mystery is not love but a net cast forth: and only the unprofitable is caught.And let your best be for your friend.If he must know the ebb of your tide, let him know its flood also.For what is your friend that you should seek him with hours to kill?Seek him always with hours to live.For it is his to fill your need, but not your emptiness.And in the sweetness of friendship let there be laughter, and sharing of pleasures.For in the dew of little things the heart finds its morning and is refreshed.Aye Khun Thaksin - refreshed like a need to return..... Baahumbug......-mel.

"For as long as I have known him, Thaksin has never abandoned his friends or allies in a common struggle," he said.
Aye, that's why he frecked off abroad, in a state of incredulousness!
He'd never abandon his mateys, for a slice of his own loaf now, would he?
Natthawut obviously knows him well. Very well indeedy!

so these days, they hire ex-cons to be journalists.... loooooooooool
God forbid hiring an ex-con....? Whatever next?! A black man for President, a woman as PM?!
Many brilliant journalists are "ex-cons" having spent time behind bars at some point or other chasing down sensitive stories or trying to expose corruption of those in power.
Pretty irrelevant really given this guy isn't a journalist, he's the author of a single book, which I guess he'd struggled to have written without being an ex-con, given the subject matter...
Maybe. However, if an ex-con is going to write a book and try and make a mint out of his/her experience, then that isn't exactly fair justice in the end, is it? More like, 'yes, get help with a book and experiences, even go so far as to get it published, but have the decency to take away any royalties, and other financial benefits, and have them given to children in need and battered wives..... for sake of their needs, and prevention of future family crime from said selves and future generations.'

Tiger's Death Accidental: Temple Vet
in Thailand News
Posted
I heard down the grapevine that this individual was found at the foot of a ten storey block in Pattaya and quickly moved, so as to not allure more tigers to the vicinity. Once removed, a chain was alledgly found around it's neck in its new abode at the temple.
Also, apparently, by the other media sources, this tiger was alledgly a rare Russian Siberian breed, if that's at all possible, and know for its deadly drug-induced bite after consuming rare leaves of a sort, and snorting them with Tigresses.
It's a shame for the tiger, but a wake up call for the Siberian crew that removed its <deleted> before hanging it.
