Popular Post snoop1130 Posted January 12 Popular Post Share Posted January 12 Convicted ex-PM Thaksin Shinawatra is suffering from heart valve disease and rarely has visitors, said Chaichana Detdecho, chairman of the House Police Affairs committee. He made this statement after visiting the Police General Hospital, where Thaksin has been receiving medical treatment for more than four months. He and a committee member, Thipa Paweenasathien, a Move Forward MP, were granted access to the 14th floor of the hospital today but were not allowed to enter the wards to find out whether Thaksin is still there.

This is just a game - I'm surprised its being played so slowly.

He may well be at home as there is absolutely no proof that he is still in the hospital. Kanman Po did it, and Thaksin is further up the tree than he ever was. 10 1 5 2 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Re privacy laws. Not if Thaksin gave permission for the information to be released. To be honest heart valve surgery ranges from routine to very severe...it is the severity we need to understand if he is being treated specially. This is theatre, the people arranging this have nothing but contempt for people....they don't care what you or me think, or the Thai people think. They are totally shameless, and they know the Thai people will accept what they do because they have been doing it for years 4 2 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My point is that the chap making the claim, knows nothing other than what is reported in the media. And we have all seen that and drawn our own conclusions. It is ludicrous to suggest that a poor man from Isaan jailed for 5 years for picking wild mushrooms get this sort of treatment....they'd let him die. Perhaps if you went out and became a billionaire (in USD) then perhaps you would get special treatment too. 5 1 1 1 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post connda Posted January 12 Popular Post Share Posted January 12 My guess is that the clinical cure for Thaksin's heart valve disease is a pardon. After the pardon, the valve will miraculously repair itself after which Mr. Thaksin will be able to resume seeing family, friends, acquaintances, and power-brokers. He should be good as new by this time next year. 1 3 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That has not been confirmed as being factual by any media sources. 3 1 1 1 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
