Popular Post snowgard Posted December 27, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted December 27, 2023 16 hours ago, OneMoreFarang said: I really don't want to hear that stupid argument anymore. A politician does something wrong. Is that a political crime and it should not be prosecuted? And if a politician commits a crime and the opposition publishes evidence about this crime and demands that that politician should be prosecuted, what then? Should we call that politically motivated prosecution and ignore it? Or is a crime a crime, independent of who commits it and independent of how it was discovered? So what exactly done she wrong and which crimes she commited? Can you tell it to us and show us the evidence for it? 1 1 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only stupid people don't run away!!! When you are incarcerated, it is much more difficult to find and present evidence of your innocence. Besides, otherwise she would have been in prison for the last 10 years INNOCENT!!! 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would not pretend to be PM if my sister would tell me to do that. And just in case I would be PM then I would follow the law and work for the people - and not my family. And if I would do above, then I would never be in the situation to think about running away from prosecution. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When Western governments make mistakes - as they all do - does the PM/Pres get charged with criminal actions? Perhaps in Usofa but not in real democracies. There is a big difference between making mistakes and setting up million dollar scams. She didn't just make mistakes... 2 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She should be punished for that one. The arrest warrant was illegally issued for a crime she didn’t commit. There is no doubt that the warrant is considered null and void. Thus the slate is now cleared. Reasoning skills are required here. 1 2 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not like that at all. The charges she was found guilty of were NOT instigated by the generals, they were laid and proven by Thailand's mainstream legal processes. 1 2 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She crossed the border to Cambodia in a car without border security or immigration noticing. Who you think should be punished? Expand I don't know the details of the Thai laws... That doesn't seem to cause you to hold back from demanding that the full force of those laws are enforced against those whose politics you dislike!

If I was loong Prayut, the man who removed her from office, I think I'd be looking for an escape route from Thailand ASAP. But but but...... we're being told on here by the coup apologists that only the guilty look for an escape route from Thailand. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post peter48 Posted December 27, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted December 27, 2023 " has been residing in self-exile abroad following the 2014 coup orchestrated by army chief-turned-prime minister Prayut Chan-o-cha." She was respected by Thai people especially in the poorer North and was globally outward visiting UK etc and forward looking. BritScot is so correct and well supported on here. How anyone on here could not grasp that Thailand was better off, outward looking and with tourist fiendly approaches and bringing better standard of living to ordinary folk before the Coup of 2014 is beyond comprehension. Those were the days when Europeans flocked to Thailand bought property and the Baht was worth much more. Those were the days when it was the LOS. 1 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This ruling doesn't say it was only a little crime that wasn't important, it says it wasn't a crime in the first place. As stated in the PBS article: Quote The court concluded that there was no evidence to prove that Yingluck had dictated or interfered with the transfer. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, there the military didn't endorse the coup (as General Milley stated) and the military stepped back from it, which is the difference to Thailand... Same thing happened in Myanmar except the people there are pushing back.
