Highly corrupt daddy made arrangements for him to return to LOS wih no charges but he didn't want to come because the Thai people weren't showing him enough respect. 

"Yeah buddy come home, we got ya one special chair the Americans gave us, it's electric . . ."

 

Mr T needs to be sure a pair of steel bracelets will not be waiting for him.

Sort of reminds me of the chalerm brother who shot and killed a cop at short range then fled to Malaysia.

Yeah. So then daddy organised a bunch of people to be at the airport to stage a heors welcome for him. Sickening to watch.

".............. he wants to care for his grandchildren and is ready to serve the 10-year prison term from which he fled."

 

It's been said before, but how on earth is he going to "care for his grandchildren" from a jail cell - in 10 years time they'll be able to take care of themselves!

Fugitive former prime minister Thaksin Shinawatra has, again, delayed his return to Thailand, this time saying he will wait to see how the election of the prime minister turns out.

 

Thaksin said last month that he would end his 17 years of self-exile this month, because he wants to care for his grandchildren and is ready to serve the 10-year prison term from which he fled.

 

His youngest daughter, Paetongtarn, said today (Wednesday), however, that she had just spoken to her father and he has changed his mind.

Yeah, he needs to wait until the Government changes.

 

It is taking longer than expected.

Of course he isn't coming back now .He's got to wait and see who's going to be the nextPM and then he can Try to Bribe the PM if he can come back and not go to Jail.

I don't like his chances with that, there are too many people that know what he has done and they wont forgive him not even for a Bribe

In other words, nobody replied to his application (in triplicate) for a special waiver of 12 years of jail for a six star convicted billionaire conman. 

Nope, they've settled for a junta that has no comparison for corruption and ineptitude.

 

12 year sentence from the criminals who overthrew Thatskin and disenfranchised millions of democratic votes.

 

The initial scheme was to protect the farmers from the scrupolus middlemen.  Unfortunately, it went wrong with countless bad players, many in the current junta included.

 

 

 

That's just my opinion.

What is distorted in that post? 

 

Everything is factually correct.

When the army came with rubber bullets and tear gas several got shot and killed with grenade launcher....than the military had to step back to bring the guns....and than they infact killed red shirts in the battle.....that the red shirts shot first not the military just went in to kill people. And still the military was not fast enough to prevent them to burn down many buildings. Can't blame the military for that.
(But you can blame Abhisit....he could have easily prevent that....)

Sorry, that is incomprehensible. 

 

Again, what specific parts of his post are distorted? 

 

The post did not mention anything about who fired first and if we are arguing that point, it was the military that fired first when the protests were elsewhere in the city. The army were pictured on TV shooting live ammo at protesters while Abhisit was on TV saying no live rounds were being used. The M16's the soldiers were using cannot fire blanks without the proper suppressors being fitted. 

 

Not all people killed in the army assault at Rajaprasong were red shirts, journalists, nurses, and civilians were killed as well, and it has never been properly investigated or anyone held accountable.

You were here and still have the distorted view of the events?

Which distorted view?

The red shirts have been effectively shot (ok maybe around hundred people doesn't qualify as massacre).

Suthep did try to overthrow an elected government (even only a caretaker government ) in order to replace it with an unelected government of his choice, and did all he could do to block elections of a new government. After he failed to do so, and after the courts fail to oust the whole government, then the coup occurred in order to make sure the people would be prevented to elect a new government in July 2014.

Yes.

 

MrMoJoRisin is crying in a corner of a darkened room somewhere, not in Thailand. He was betting his house on toxic Tony making a return this month.

Not so. 

MrMojoRisin is impressed by Dr Thaksin's selfless and sensible decision.

Thailand's future is with Move Forward and the youth, Thaksin's time has come and gone.

A debt of gratitude is however owed to Thaksin by many for making possible the changes we are all about to witness in Thailand.

The new government will see that Thaksin's gets a fair trial, which, in all likelihood will result in not guilty verdicts - the trumped up convictions will be quashed.

Thaksin will live out his days as a flawed yet revered elder statesman in Thailand whilst Prayuth and his co conspirators will spend the rest of their days......

Then he was made an officer in the RTP and became a supervisor at the police shooting range!

I could live with that.

 

I don't share your view on Thaksin's innocent.
