SELF-EXILED, DE FACTO PHEU THAI BOSS Thaksin Shinawatra has reconfirmed he is definitely coming back home next month, the date of which is yet to be disclosed.

 

In talk with famed TV host Khachapa “Moddam” Tancharoen in Singapore recently, Thaksin has repeated his earlier vow to return home after 17 years of globetrotting and living in self-exile abroad though he might possibly end up in jail upon his planned homecoming next month.

 

The deposed prime minister who has been earlier sentenced in absentia by court to a combined 10-year prison under separate counts of misconduct perpetrated during his premiership nearly two decades ago said he is already too old to be politically involved any longer and that he would rather leave the country’s political future to new generations.

Sweep stakes.... 

 

How long before he’s arrested and red-shirts protest and blockade major cities... 

Then the military have to step in with another Coup because the existing government are unable to maintain law and order ???

 

I give it 5 months.

 

 

Couldn't have said it better. Believe it when I see it though.

I don't know what is end game is. But his constant attitude is that he hates it to be ignored.

Now people talk about Move Forward and not about him. That is obviously something he can't accept.

So what does he do? Go to the press with some crazy statement which he will know they will pick up. And he has another 15 minutes of fame.

It must be sad to be so desperate for attention. 

You seem to ignore the fact that he has been talking about his return well before the election and before "people talk about MF". 15 minutes of fame seem to last many many years...

The operative word here is 'potential' consequences, not, despite the consequences.....He is waiting for his daughter to set the date, so the soup is already being stirred. He wont be arrested, maybe a commission will be set up to 'look into things', that will only concern his lawyers and the press before the case dies a natural death of familiarity and disinterest.

Would be interesting to know his / PTs / the reds real game plan on this.

What are ther really trying to achieve?

And what will it do to disrupt an ongoing MF led gov't?

It is not uncommon for those who find themselves in exile for many years have a yearning to return home to their fatherland i don’t think this guy is any different and has now decided that the time to return is now let’s face it had he not fled he would of served his sentence and been a free man
