nobodysfriend Posted September 4, 2023 Share Posted September 4, 2023 In a corrupt , 3rd world country , there is no justice . The rich and ' influential ' control and design everything , the sheeple just have to follow , and beware if they dare to criticize the autocracy , the law will be applied to them in full extend , and they end up in prison for just telling the truth . Same for overstaying foreigners , who never did any damage to the holy kingdom . Imprisoned , deported , extorted , no one cares in Thailand ... S-- hithole country , really not worth staying here for just being ripped off and regarded as " unwanted alien " . 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post herfiehandbag Posted September 4, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted September 4, 2023 So, is Tuesday (swearing in of the new cabinet) a sufficiently important occasion to justify pardons for well behaved prisoners with a year to serve? 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is just spending a few weeks in a lush hospital suite and then when all the media attention wains he will walk out a free man to carry on with his life and businesses with in Thailand and be a puppeteer of the new government. And free to spend the corruption money 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hating takes up so much energy, do y'all drink gallons of Red Bull everyday to keep your hating energy level up? Correct, but it doesn't stop at Thaksin. It seems that a lot of people on this forum spend a lot of their time at the keyboard bashing and criticizing every aspect of the country they have chosen to live in. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post thailand49 Posted September 4, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted September 4, 2023 Amazing Thailand, this hair dying lying fool just yesterday in a press conference said he had to do the year there is no more Royal reduction Today with a straight face memory lost does a 360.

Popular Post spidermike007 Posted September 4, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted September 4, 2023 It would be naive to say this was not part of the original bargain PT struck with the army. Morality and ethics has never been the army's strong suit. For them, it is all about power mongering and money, above all else. 3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nickcage49 Posted September 4, 2023 Share Posted September 4, 2023 If he's still locked up in 2 months I'll be surprised. In fact, I doubt he'll serve any time. Somehow he'll go right from the hospital to his home for home confinement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JeffersLos Posted September 4, 2023 Share Posted September 4, 2023 3 hours ago, Scouse123 said: To justify this they will roll out that all standard prisoners are entitled to an additional 3 days a month off for good behaviour, Additionally, when Royal Pardons come around for important royal celebration days, such as King or Queens birthday, or his fathers remembrance day, etc they usually release those over 70, and those with less than a year to serve and also they release quickly on parole, those guilty of non violent crimes. Just another day at the Thai office! 3 days off for both his and Yingluck's birthdays too. And the for each of the chauffeurs, maids, bank managers. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It seems that a lot of people on this forum spend a lot of their time at the keyboard bashing and criticizing every aspect of the country they have chosen to live in. Some (many) have been "persuaded" to invest their capital in houses, farms, other ventures, cars and so on. Some will have lost the lot, others will stay to at least enjoy some benefits of their "investment". The alternative is to cut your losses and go home - but start over again, in what is now a strange, expensive country, on a pension income? I know several like that - they take it out on their keyboards. Luckily new keyboards are only a couple of hundred Baht! 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post crazykopite Posted September 4, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted September 4, 2023 It appears that Thailands new motto could be “ Do the crime but not the time “ every prisoner incarcerated in Thai prisons should apply in there 1,000s for clemency leading to a pardon regardless of the crime they have committed and any prisoner of ill health should be released immediately 2 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post XJPSX Posted September 4, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted September 4, 2023 (edited) Sets a nice precedent for the country doesn’t it. I will remember Thaksin next time I pay the traffic cop 400thb for absolutely no wrong doing. You cannot blame people in uniforms here for grabbing what they can, when they can when the country’s highest leadership behaves like this.

connda Posted September 4, 2023 Share Posted September 4, 2023 (edited) Like other convicts, further clemency for Thaksin possible on important occasions Wake up. Any one with a functioning brain can see exactly where this is heading as the public is being primed for Thaksin's early release. You're average 'other convicts' will be rotting in jail long after Thaksin is a free man. Average commoners don't get clemency. Rich, connected, sick, ohhhh so sick and frail somebodies get clemency. Tony ain't seeing much more time under arrest in a hospital, no less seeing the inside of a prison cell.

Thumbs Posted September 4, 2023 Share Posted September 4, 2023 Should be placed in house arrest on an ankle bracelet for the full term of the 8 year imprisonment if he is so ill, bet a few days after his release he’ll be out living the high life. Thailand keep insisting that there is justice for all but still we see that rich and poor receive very different treatment 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
