House Committee Members Barred From Visiting Thaksin In Person

[webfact]

 

NO MEMBERS OF THE HOUSE COMMITTEE on Police Affairs are being allowed to visit de facto Pheu Thai boss-cum-convict Thaksin Shinawatra at Police Hospital as planned for Friday (Jan.12).

 

Police Hospital spokesperson Sirikul Srisanga said today no members of the House panel, headed by Democrat MP Chaichana Dejdecho, are being allowed to visit the deposed prime minister in person since the hospital’s chief executive official Thaweesilp Wechawitharn has deemed it “very unsuitable” for them to do so, no matter if they may insist when they arrive at the hospital as scheduled tomorrow.

 

Neither can the House committee members make a video call to the de facto Pheu Thai boss-cum-convict at large should he disagree in the first place, according to the hospital spokesperson.

 

However, the visiting MPs will be received in a conference room of the hospital where they may make an inquiry about Thaksin’s case with doctors in charge whilst the patient’s privacy will strictly remain intact, she said.

...is the illness from which the former thai prime minister suffers so contagious?

Go visit him at home... he ain't in hospital after 4 months.

Whether they go or they don't, he has made them all look pretty damn stupid!

It would be “very unsuitable” for him to allow this after he was so well paid for his service .

This lends a bit of credibility to the rumor that Inmate Thaksin is not physically present at the Police Hospital.

Yes. Very contagious. Many suffer from it. Mostly politicians and influential people. The symptoms are Lying. Corruption. Dishonesty. A lack of morals and ethical behaviour and greed.

It just needs a screeching ladyboy to complete the cast!

Ultimately what does it matter, it's their production and the show must go on.

But I'm still impressed that nobody has sought to take a single sneaky pick after all this time.

"No beloved grandchildren, no pictures with grandpa right now"  hilarious

 

If you step back, and I mean really step back, all this behaviour, and elsewhere, is absurd.

The fact that we've created structures and belief systems that require this nonsense as a species is insane when you think about it.

The human race is frikkin nuts at times.

It varies from country to country! Some are much more frikkin nuts than others!

If only the politicians were as concerned about that police killer from red Bull.

He has been free for over 10 years and never spent a day in gaol.

Just follow the Grand Prix calendar; he's at every race - in the VIP tent.  No wonder Interpol can't find him, they're not allowed in.

What about the soldier who led an illegal coup and took over the country for 9 years backed up by other soldiers with their guns and tanks?

This guy is walking about free as a bird and makes Thaksin look like the most honest guy on earth.

There is contagion of greed in Thailand, it appears.

Apparently he's being fed a diet of omlettes and pizzas. Its the only food they can slide under the door.

[Guderian]

Here's a cultural commentary on the situation, lol...

 

They seek him here, they seek him there,

Those Thais they seek him everywhere.

Is he in heaven? Or is he in hell?

That damned elusive Thaksin!

 

Sorry about the last line, I couldn't find anything in his name that rhymed with Hades

But don't forget someone is strongly supporting him at a very high level.

 

Without such support he could not have achieved the current situation.

[newnative]

Total farce.

Come on out bug T. I miss the street riots of years gone by. Or have you sold out to the current rulers of Thailand.

I am kinda curious.
