Popular Post snoop1130 Posted February 20 Popular Post Share Posted February 20 Former Cambodian PM Hun Sen is scheduled to travel to Bangkok tomorrow to visit Thaksin Shinawatra, at the latter’s residence in Ban Chan Song La, Paetongtarn Shinawatra, Thaksin’s youngest daughter confirmed today. Hun Sen is worried about Thaksin’s condition and asked for a personal meeting with Thaksin, Paetongtarn said, adding Hun Sen will have lunch with Thaksin before returning to Phnom Penh. Hun Sen once appointed Thaksin, who was in self-exile after the coup that deposed him at the time, as his economic adviser and, last year, Thaksin, together with his sister Yingluck, attended Hun Sen’s birthday party in Phnom Penh. Tomorrow’s visit comes just five days after Thaksin was released on conditional on parole after serving a prison term on corruption charges, not a night of which was actually served in prison. He spent only a few hours in the Bangkok Remand Prison before being transferred to Police General Hospital, where he remained for six months before being granted parole. He emerged from the hospital on Sunday wearing a neck brace and with his arm in a sling.

Popular Post Ralf001 Posted February 20 Popular Post Share Posted February 20 Good to hear P'Thaksin friends can now visit him now he is on parole.

Popular Post spidermike007 Posted February 21 Popular Post Share Posted February 21 As very good fit for the oppressive and a sadistic army here. Hun Sen himself was the mafia in Cambodia. He was a money grubbing, power hungry, land grabbing multi billionaire, who stopped at nothing to maintain his power, and amass more fortune. In addition, his resume includes many years as a commander in the Kymer Rouge, where he engaged in serial killing. Quite a leader. He is getting old, and is paranoid. His personal security detail numbered over 5,000 men. There are countless people who want him dead. He corned the media and silenced his critics just like the Thai army does. The real scandal, is why all the western power are complicit in his crimes, and have always supported his brand of fake democracy? Where is the condemnation? Where are the sanctions? Where is the UN in all of this? Now, he has passed the baton to his son with a fake election. Another despot ruler. What can one say? 4 1 2 3 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This, of course, does not make him an angel, but he is nothing compared to the true corrupt organizations ruling in this country. One gangster organization does not cancel out another. Hun Sen was a true despot, he did steal massive amounts of land for personal enrichment and he jailed and killed opponents like Sam Rainsy, Chea Vichea, and countless others. He was a tyrant. “The authorities don’t have the will to do a real investigation, because the killer is somebody powerful in the government,” Chhun alleged. The investigation resumed following the men’s acquittal. Government spokesman Phay Siphan refused to discuss the case and hung up when asked about the government’s alleged connection to Vichea’s murder. https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2019/1/22/15-years-on-justice-elusive-in-cambodia-union-leaders-murder I not only weaken the opposition, I’m going to make them dead ... and if anyone is strong enough to try to hold a demonstration, I will beat all those dogs and put them in a cage. —Hun Sen, January 20, 2011, responding to the suggestion that he should be worried about the overthrow of a dictator in Tunisia at the time of the “Arab Spring.” https://www.hrw.org/report/2015/01/12/30-years-hun-sen/violence-repression-and-corruption-cambodia 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
