He's a convicted criminal who needs to go to prison, regardless of what your opinion is on the subject matter. End of story!

pacovl46 Posted December 9, 2022 Share Posted December 9, 2022 9 hours ago, MrMojoRisin said: Seems Freedom House (along with every other NGO that reports on rule of law) disagree with you - Although Thailand’s constitution grants independence to the judiciary, in practice Thailand’s courts are politicized, and corruption in the judicial branch is common. The Constitutional Court, which has been accused of favoring the military, has sweeping powers, including the ability to dissolve political parties, overthrow elected officials, and veto legislation. In 2018, the government enacted a law that made criticism of the Constitutional Court with “rude, sarcastic, or threatening words” a criminal offense, further shielding the body from accountability. In February 2020, the Constitutional Court abolished the popular opposition party FFP after what observers characterized as a highly politicized trial. In 2019, Kanakorn Pianchana, a judge in Yala province, shot himself in court immediately after acquitting five Muslim defendants from Thailand’s deep south on murder charges. Before shooting himself, Kanakorn read a statement stating that he had been under intense pressure by superiors to find the five guilty despite a lack of evidence. https://freedomhouse.org/country/thailand/freedom-world/2021#CL 3-0 Mate, he's a criminal. End of story and you can twist and turn that for as long as you want, it doesn't change the fact. In regards to your childish counting, if you think Thaksin is innocent then you were never even in the game! ???? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is his single thought. I never said that! I said Thaksin is guilty and needs to pay for it and you guys were the ones who brought the current guys into this. I never said anything about them either way, apart from that I'm not familiar with the current situation! And again, putting words in my mouth won't fly! And yes, you guys won't change my mind about Thaksin being guilty one iota! Amd lastly, and I don't know how to express this any simpler than this: How does the current guys not being brought to justice, yet, from your point or view, justify Thaksin not having to pay for what he did?! And don't give me that <deleted> "fair trial" line. He's as guilty as they come and you know it, but somehow you don't seem to have a problem with that at all. You probably also think that Pablo Escobar was a great guy, because you know, he built hospitals and schools and <deleted>.

Well luckily I was not put on a drugs blacklist so I am still alive unlike my friend's father who was gunned down by police (no drugs involved at all). Also unlike Nong Fluke, and all the other murdered children and adults across the country - no trials, no evidence, just executed. Thailand has corruption, it is what turns the wheels, always has and likely always will (just like the UK although - until recently - they were better at hiding it). What Thaksin did though was to take it to another level and he became so self obsessed and complacent he didn't even bother to hide it - he literally thought he was untouchable. The Exim bank loan to Burma to buy his satellites. The hiding shares in his maid's name (and driver, and children, and relatives) to avoid tax. The Ratchada land sale to his wife at way below market value. Getting the BOI to grant tax breaks to Shin Corp while he was PM, getting the transport ministry to abolish the minimum air fare law when he was about to engage in a JV with Air Asia. His appalling human rights violations (war on drugs, Tak Bai, Krue Se). The man is a poisonous, self serving crook with only his own interests at heart. His corruption was so visible and open it was really quite astonishing how he thought he would get away with it - he really did believe he could walk on water. Oh, the 30 baht health scheme was good though so I applaud him for that. Yeah, the 30 baht health scheme was good for people with little money, although a lot of private practices in the country side had to close down because they couldn't live of that and doctors migrated to bigger cities to work for government hospitals, which meant that the lines in hospitals in the countryside got even longer than they were before, Let's face it, the 30 Baht scheme was such a blatantly desperate move to get votes!!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thaksin’s Universal Healthcare Plan has won nothing but universal praise from all around world. It only makes you look foolish to post as you have done in relation to the 30 baht scheme. You are allowing your Thaksin obsession to override whatever rationality you may posses. Just a vote grab eh? In Thailand in 2001, before the Universal Coverage Scheme (UCS), nearly one in four people were uninsured. Others were covered by insurance that offered only partial protection. The result: over 17,000 Thia children under five died each year, two-thirds from easily preventable infectious diseases, and out-of-pocket health spending tipped one in five of the poorest Thai households below the national poverty line. http://millionssaved.cgdev.org/case-studies/thailands-universal-coverage-scheme 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a fact, that the number of doctors decreased in the countryside after the implementation of the 30 Bahtl health scheme. But it's alright, keep your head in the sand about it! By the way, you're allowing your blind love for Thaksin to totally and utterly cloud your judgement! He's not the MESSIAH, he's not the SAVIOR and he is most definitely NOT innocent!
