eating publicly sandwich is a criminal offence, enslaving workers and child labour is not, however, the industry will self-regulate itself in order to keep export market

here is about the hero of this article http://www.tsroadmap.com/physical/vaginoplasty/thep-vechavisit.html

he is a medical doctor, surgeon, specialising in vaginoplasty. He came to protest in his clinic's uniform, with a logo and name.

however, he hasn't got qualifications:

"According to media sources, Thep Vechavisit "has no license to practice." However, he told the Sydney Morning Herald he "is a registered Thai doctor who did a two-month course in cosmetic surgery through New York University."

A note to plasticsurgery.or.th in January 2006 confirmed that Thep Vechavisit is NOT a national board certified plastic surgeon in Thailand.

He also has divulged information about prospective patients to the press (see below), raising questions about his ability to keep patient records confidential."

there might be better anti-american/anti-western thais than a fake surgeon

so it was this countrywide protest publicised over by facebook and printed media? Where are the supporters of junta? Doesn't look as it was raining at all. Let's see how Yon's crowd will spin it? I do expect this picture and police statement to be published tomorrow all over international media. Good on thai military state!

I will try their equipment, but not training. I don't mind second hand, if they will have.

I have already found some thai teachers, with perfect english, who for same fee/or a little more, would teach unlimited hours, until one can confidently fly. Also they are located close to my home, so will be able to join for group flying.

"He said that Mr Chakrapob was already facing an arrest warrant on lese majeste charge but attempt to have him extradited from abroad to face trial in Thailand was not possible because there is no lese majeste law in countries where the fugitive have taken refuge."

That narrow it down to every other country in the world then

"That narrow it down to every other country in the world then :

NO! The following countries also have lese majeste laws: Denmark, Netherlands, Norway, Spain, Morocco, Kuwait, Jordan and Malaysia.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lèse-majesté

Next?

having lese majeste law in europe is more for lough than anything else:

"Denmark: There are no historical records of §115 having ever been used, but in March 2011, Greenpeace activists who unfurled a banner at a dinner at the 2009 United Nations Climate Change Conference were charged under this section.[8] They received minor sentences for other crimes, but were acquitted of the charge relating to the monarch.

Netherlands: In October 2007, a 47-year-old man was sentenced to 1 week imprisonment and fined 400 [11] for, amongst other things, lese-majesty in the Netherlands when he called Queen Beatrix a "whore" and told a police officer that he would have anal sex with her because "she would like it".

...

Spain: The Spanish satirical magazine El Jueves was fined for violation of Spain's lese-majesty laws after publishing an issue with a caricature of the Prince of Asturias and his wife engaging in sexual intercourse on the cover in 2007

yes, my name is shinawatra, giles shinawatra, and I'm looking for a paramotor teacher in bkk, thanx

I did write "suthep, who within hours of killing pointed fingers".

ask https://www.facebook.com/zenjournalist for an exact quote from wikileaks , if you are unable to find it by yourself using google

suthep was mentioned, because the dead was his subordinate and it's suthep who is responsible for the killing.

it's also suthep, who within hours of killing pointed fingers at kambodians, to deflate investigation into his own armed mob.

Like that is going to be in the least bit unbiased and truthful, he is as full of crap as any of the other red sheeple ! If he has a legitimate source, please cite it...

yes, his source is an ambassador of usa in bangkok sending his secret correspondence to washington. And an ambassador heard it directly from pad and democrats

Statement today by Jakrapob Penkair of the Free Thai movement https://www.facebook.com/pages/จักรภพ-เพ็ญแข-Jakrapob-Penkair/560398830659767 :

The charges levelled against me today by Thailands illegitimate coup regime reveal, once again, the desperation of the Generals and the Establishment they represent. The false claim that I am behind some kind of armed element is not only a fiction but yet another example of the injudiciousness of the fraudulent Thai junta.

Let me be clear - there is simply no evidence whatsoever to connect me to the juntas seizure of arms and I would challenge them to produce such evidence. Of course, even the seizure of said arms have more than a whiff of suspicion about them. There has been no independent investigation regarding these arms seizures, no chain of evidence has been preserved and the kind of claims the junta are putting forward are so flimsy they would be washed away very quickly when subject to proper cross-examination.

As for any attempt to extradite me on such charges, the junta must know that no government on earth would succumb to their threats and that I would be given full access to any evidence they have concocted and also the platform to challenge such evidence.

For the record, I must state that I have no involvement in any kind of armed struggle.

I believe fully in a political, social and cultural struggle secured in reality by the democratic will of the Thai people. The Generals and their Establishment masters know very well that if the democratic will of the Thai people is expressed, power will be removed from them and returned to more accountable and legal forms.

It's only two days ago our organisation was being dismissed as irrelevant by the junta. Now we face allegations of being behind a regime-concocted "armed struggle" along with attempts to curtail our rights to travel via the revocations of passports. These actions by the junta reveal only one thing - their increasingly obvious insecurity - something which will only grow in the days and weeks to come.

Thats why the only judicial vehicle they could use to expedite their false charges would be through their own military-run courts where due process and the rule of law have long been abolished in favour of despotism. It must be said that any and all cases coming before the military courts exist in the context of a form of jurisprudence that is little more than a theatre of the absurd, such is the lack of any form of legal rights.

At the moment the military and the forces they represent are the only agents engaged in any kind of illegitimate armed struggle against the will of the Thai people. Those who believe in democracy have no need to use force of arms as we are confident that the moment the franchise is returned to Thais the junta will be little more than an historical aberration.

I should add that the revocation of passports by the junta is not only another grotesque repressive act it also turns any Thai citizen who stands against the military regime into political refugees. Such revocations will further expose to the global community that the junta are little more than petulant tyrants operating far beyond the norms of international law.

We ask our supporters to remain steadfast and not be distressed or disheartened by the juntas threats and games. The only action the junta have available to themselves is to attempt to crush the hopes and aspirations of ordinary Thais. Yet, with each turn of the repressive screw, the junta just further seal their own fate and will strengthen your resolve to return sovereignty to the Thai people.

Please, londonthai, NO MORE PROPAGANDA! Don't make me hope the MICT traces you, and you get sent away from this forum too...!

surely, they are very strong political arguments you are rolling out

Many reactions on this topic today remind me, in minor, thank God, of the general attitude in my home country's intellectual circles, with in front university professors, human rights activists (Amnesty International, ...), NGOs, and socialist party leaders, defending, with teeth and claws, sponsoring, the marvellous experience the peacefull father Pol Pot's Khmer Rouge were bringing to Cambodia in creating a new, just, social, egalitarian society for the happiness of all citizens... Some even resisted, remaining in denial, years after the truth about the killing fields had started to emerge... Intellect is a privilege, it's precious, important, but it should not become obsessive, masking off the perceptions of sheer common sense. And History is full of well mannered, well educated, good looking, sweet talking people, who were in fact despicable personalities, full of evil, hatred and violence, and mostly very vain and self centered. Please try to remember you defended Jakrapop with such stamina, when the truth comes out, and don't hesitate to make your mea culpa in front of us here then...

please do remember, that thai state did support khmer rouge by political, financial and military means.

Poor old London Thai. I am lucky enough to live (legally) in Thailand, and if I never see London again - well, I really don't care. You enjoy it while you can, Sunshine.

Is londonthai actually giles?

yes, I am giles, and I am looking for a paramotor teacher in or around bangkok. thanx

say what?

"Thotsaphon Kaewthima, a fellow STR leader, said the police did not seem to have moved forward in the probe into Sutin's death. He added that an arrest warrant had been issued against an STR member, but said it was impossible that this person killed Sutin as they were both in the same vehicle at the time of the shooting."

if that's happen it's called "insider's job" or "infighting". There is a strong suspicion, that those some 25 who died during bangkok shutdown were killed in a similar manner. Just for the sake of power hungry elits to depose a democratically elected government. Those are called "collateral damage" in military terms.

some call it a "small price" to rule over 65mln people with gdp of 360bln and feudaly rooted corruption and it's said to pay back to suthep's paymasters within months.

as to the killed guy - he was a leader of violent wing of a thai fascist movement and was shot dead during a violent blockade of polling stations, which lead to cancellation of a general election

"as to the killed guy - he was a leader of violent wing of a thai fascist movement

Shows how much you know. He had nothing to do with the UDD and in fact the UDD have been linked to this PTP sanctioned assassination. But that was the logical conclusion anyway.

I know, that according to wikileaks, back in 2007, around airports shutdown, the yellows/dems were ready to sacrifice up to 500 of their members to be killed by their own side, on order to get to power again.

at the end they just paid up to 50mln baht per head for parliamentarists to switch sides.

this time round that much money wasn't necessary, killing some 25 of their own supporters was cheaper.

so if there is a warrant for a suspected killer and a deceased closed aide - why he doesn't come forward and explain his role in the shooting. Instead, he has chosen to hide/run abroad, rather than face the bill. There is an evidence against him, a video which you have mentioned.

the mother of the deceased, Thotsaphon Kaewthima and the other fellow leaders of the thai fascist movement, like suthep, should urge the suspected killer to come forward, rather than blame police for lack of progress in the investigation.

"Thotsaphon Kaewthima, a fellow STR leader, said the police did not seem to have moved forward in the probe into Sutin's death. He added that an arrest warrant had been issued against an STR member, but said it was impossible that this person killed Sutin as they were both in the same vehicle at the time of the shooting."

"NOT made in Thailand" as in "NOT the Nation". If this label wasn't invented yet, I claim my copyrights

The title should be "determind". Misspelling.

As to the long term problems of labour and human rights abuse, army should be well aware of them, because at the most powerful player in thai politics, they were causing them by undermining political process by staging systezmatically military coups, deposing elected governments and dissolving the parliament. I am not sure, how they can help all the problems

Akanat six degrees

Rubl, akanat was democrat mp. He was busted in march for claiming to have 6 degrees from oxford - here goes his transparency, reform and anticorruption

A publicity stand.

Why the corrupted regime and thaksin were not mentioned?

I just got message from fb:

"Sorry, something went wrong.

We're working on getting this fixed as soon as we can."

same message from another social media
