clever woman.....first entrepreneur, and at the same time asylum. Good choice.

I hope she will be soon back with her brother as free Thai citizen after the junta will be gone.

 

How nice of you to admire billionaire criminals.

UKIP, I would say . . . no high flyers trying to pinch her assets in there.

WRONG !!!
Caymanian passports are issued in the United Kingdom !!!

 

I'm on the Cayman Islands twice per year for over 32 years. 

You couldn't squeeze me and the missus in, this year, could you? We love white, sandy beeches and palm trees. Just like Thailand, really, except everything is sort of . . . respectable. Surprised YL isn't there . . . the UK's shit at this time of the year.

Yes, she is a citizen of Montenegro, Cyprus, Cayman Islands and Tonga, not to mention Niue.

You're guessing.

Because she is a Montenegrin citizen now - or possibly even a citizen of Uganda, Nicaragua or St. Kitts and Nevis?

You know that how?

Suggestion to the Newbies posting in defense of Yingluck:

 

Lurk a bit before jumping in on a topic such as this.

A suggestion to you, don't tell other posters what to post.  This is a public forum, anyone can register and make any comment they like within the rules.

Perhaps the UK authorities didn't regard a conviction for an essentially political "offence", handed down by a court with "political" in it's title, and controlled by a junta government established by a coup which was staged to forstalled an election which would quite likely have returned her to office, as a "criminal offence".
Not beyond the bounds of possibility now is it?

Not beyond the bounds of possibility either that she didn't have a conviction when she got the visa.

She no doubt won her entrepreneur visa on the back of her promise to revitalise the British farming industry with a rice-pledging scheme.

As a very rich lady, the Cons might be in with a chance, depending on 'donations' to party-funds ?

 

Then again, plenty of populist politician-millionnaires in Labour, too. 

 

Perhaps start a new party, call it Brits-Love-Brits ?

 

But the Monster Raving Loonies might yet be in with a chance !

all billionaires are criminals, but not all criminals are billionaires.

I like this family. Since they are gone, corruption is still there, fighting or democracy is not allowed, but gateways will be installed, stupid weapons are bought, ridiculous stories invented about rings and watches, China is taking over the country in many ways, just to mention only a few things. Therefore I'd prefer to have the Shinawatras who got the bigger picture for Thailand, so that Thailand would not be the bearer of red lantern in the ASEAN train, as it is now.

Better to have somebody who will put one of 10 baht into his own pockets than to suffer from this useless junta.

Oh, what a surprise! I would have never imagined that...

I do not think this is a useless Junta. Living for decades here in Thailand, NOW & today I have the impression or let say the feeling, it is changing for us, the public, there is something which is setup-ed and goes into the right direction.... Just think back how it was before.....

Maybe she did provide documents about being convicted of an offence that is not recognised as such in the UK, thus is irrelevant.

my , my,   why did so many tv posters all fall down and bump ttheir heads at the same time ? they all seemed to be confused into thinking that all the other "free" countries of the world will in any  way honor any thing or rule of law  that comes out of a military led non democratic coup government   ? why  ? it boggles my mind .

I thought her English was excellent. 

It's a pity the interviewer was unprepared and asked the same questions over again. 

I bet there's a lot of people wishing they listened to her wish to remain democratic. 

Here we are 4 years later.

lol.  Her  comments  were  more   interesting  in  the  following   clip.  Defence  and  strategy for the   continuance  of  a  desired   dynasty by  whatever  means was  the message  overall  for  me.
