Former PM Thaksin Shinawatra to be eligible for parole next year
scorecard replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
Correct, of course. Sems to be too early for home detention. So Royal suite police hospital, or is there another option yet not revealed? -
Like it or not this is the direction banks are going in many countries; one digital / computer based scenario handling all the banks transactions and processes. Bottom line: much cheaper for the bank to buy, maintain one computer system covering all of their banking. In the past most banks had several computer systems, pretty much stand alone, and with limited ability to operate across multiple systems which stand alone weren't designed/built to handle multiple activities. One of my banks in Oz has beeen going through the same thing. In the past they had stand alone computer systems (mostly bought from different vendors) for: deposits / withdrawals, operate ATM activities, credit cards, loan activities, etc., and all with very limited capability to 'talk' to the other systems. Now all on one computer system, designed / built/ programmed wih standard coding etc., to handle every aspect of banking.

To all, please ignore all the above idiot replies. Hopefully an intelligent logical knowledgeable member will give some good advice. Good luck to the family involved. -

Will the 6 months detention be in the luxury royal wing of the police hospital or at klong prem jail? Or perhaps home detention? -

Plus they seem to be quite experienced at such strategies.

Thanks Dr. Sheryl, I've already spoken to them. The SSF HO officers seem to not understand this subject at all. I've since spoken to a snr. lady at the national administration office (they supervise all amphur offices and develop the actual processes / documenaton etc. She speaks excellent English and was surprised (and a bit angry*) when I explained the situation. (*angry because she realised that an instruction on this very subject was written but never sent out.). She commented that the dark blue covered book, actually supersedes the yellow book (yellow book exists to record foreigners who have long-term visas. The key word (re yellow book) is Visa, meaning that it must have an expiry date but many visas can be renewed on application but no guarantee of renewal). Whereas any person (Thai or Foreigner with PR) who is recorded in the blue book is in that book permenantly (lifetime*) therefore SSF should see this as a guarantee the foreigner will always 'qualify' to continue Voluntary SSF Insurance. and therefore there should be no hesitation for the SSF to accept the dark blue book. (*unless the foreigner is convicted of a criminal offenseand sentenced to a jail term.) She mentioned she would call the snr. lawyer at the SSF today and sort it out, then call me back. Step by step, it's a long road.

Don't assume what the subject in the thread is. Your assumption is wrong. Are you saying you've heard stories about Big Joke being involved in illegal gambling? PLease share the details.

The report doesn't say this, not mentioned at all. Seems that trump' habit of fake reports, totally fake facts has caught on.
-
Wow, what does that mean?

And very possibly following the specific instructions of their employer.

I'm wondering why to continue Injury and Sickness benefits using the ongoing Voluntary Insurance scheme the SSF wants to see the foreigners name in a Yellow Tabien Baan TB book? Name in Yellow TB book plus pink ID card is a requirement to get approval for Injury and Sickness benefits to continue using the Voluntary Insurance scheme (member pays their monthly contribution at a Thai bank for tansfer to the SSF). I have Thai Permanent Residence PR (27 years) therefore my name is in the typical dark ble covered TB book. The SSF says this is not aceptable, must be a yellow TB book. Why? (The yellow TB book is used for foreigners who have a long-term Visa (Visa is a key word because visas have an expiry date, some can be renewed but renewal is not automatic. On the other hand PR holders are entered in the dark blue TB book because their approval to be in Thailand is for lifetime / permanent (cheewit), same as citizens). The pink ID card issued to PR holders shows 'cheewit' in the expiry date section bottom centre of the pink card. Cheewit is the Thai word for lifetime).

No response, that says something!

When did BJ speak out / what did he say to show he has no interest in democracy? How, where, what did he personally do / say which 'set back ctritical media'?
-
Interesting. He's been in the bigger limelight for several years now and made hundreds of arrests ets. How come in these several years thre's been no real revelations about BJ having broken laws, committed crimes, being involved in illegal activities etc?
-
What do you believe my Thai friends will tell me?
-
I don't know who are talking about.
-
So are you anticipating there will soon be a slowdown / a lockdown / an economic crises / a global deadly virus / a lack of flights / a war, etc., etc?
-
5 ? So I giess you know full details of his personal finances and property ownership, his family / in laws finances, what property they have all owned for decades etc?

As a foreigner, are you used to the smell of fish sauce?

YES. -
All snr. police have a personal protection unit. You seem to believe because he owns 5 houses hes's automatically corrupt. Really.

Consider the realities, here can be little doubt that very large numbers of police and govenment officials, at all levels are highly involved with all forms of gambling (and other immoral / unethical areas). Many will be very worried that BJ will soon bring down big actions to find them and remove them. And hey are reacting by rying to cast negatives about BJ, who I hope will be the next chief of police, and he still has quie a while to retirement. Given time I believe he will achieve great things to upgrade many aspects of good policeing and many good cops. Right now it seems to me that e very worried have big gambling

More unproven divisive assumptions. Earlier in the thread it was clearly explained why he delayed their entry,
