Popular Post webfact Posted January 26, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted January 26, 2023 Former prime minister Thaksin Shinawatra with his daughter Paetongtarn Shinawatra. Photo: Thai Rath By Thai Newsroom Reporters AN OUTSPOKEN FORMER MP has expressed online his bewilderment at de facto Pheu Thai boss Thaksin Shinawatra’s repeatedly-proclaimed design to return home without being almost immediately put behind bars. Ex-Democrat MP Nipit Intharasombat posted on his Facebook page to express his unsettled doubt that the former prime minister who has been earlier sentenced in absentia to a dozen years in jail on several counts of misconduct could possibly come back home without being arrested upon his arrival to Bangkok. Nipit who will seek re-election for MP in the next general election under the Palang Pracharath tickets contended that Thaksin would be promptly brought to justice upon his planned return at any given day since, the ex-MP said, those misconduct lawsuits earlier lodged against the de facto Pheu Thai boss still await court verdict whilst it would remain to be seen whether a detained Thaksin would be released under bail.

Popular Post Artisi Posted January 26, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted January 26, 2023 He was already on bail when bolted like a soi dog, so that bail was broken - so it's straight inside when he comes back - - of course that's if it ever happens, I suspect he's just playing stupid political games. 5 4 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post OneMoreFarang Posted January 27, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted January 27, 2023 Thaksin has more than enough money. But he wants to be in Thailand, and he wants to be in the Thai news - in any way possible. Imagine people would forget him, that would break the little heart of that criminal. I hope he dies soon. Burn his body, scatter the ashes in the desert and we can all forget about him. 7 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is not about the money but about power, image and face. Dr Thaksin is, to my irrelevant belief, possibly the one-eyed among the blind and Thailand's performance over the last nine years has a roller-coaster character which it never saw before. Thailand's biggest enemy is her own people, crooks wherever you look, corrupt whatever you touch - to the utter demise of all those honest, uneducated and ignorant Thais who still believe in amulets, meteor showers and lucky lottery numbers. 4 1 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thailand was never given a chance to clean up corruption with the ad infinitum military coups. Singapore was a cesspool of corruption that was common and widely accepted before 1960s and their institutions were perceived as rotten to the core. Judge their progress now. Indonesia under a Widodo is making much improvement in their fight against corruption according to its steady rise in the Corruption Perception Index. These countries have a commonality in empowering their citizens to vote out corrupt governments. Thailand never had a government that served a full term except Thaksin. Give the people the power to decide and the keep the military out of politics. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes starting with the present unelected PM, his sleeping partner, Anutin etc, etc, I am not saying whether Thaksin should be jailed or not, but he was democratically elected, which can't be said about Cha Cha and his crew.

It is an accepted fact that they are all of that already, and have been for decades. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
