I find happiness among my loved ones as my health improves : Thaksin

Thaksin Shinawatra, convict on parole, said in his first interview today after returning to Thailand that ‘Happiness is at home’.”

 

He was speaking during his visit to a cemetery in Mae Tha sub-district in Chiang Mai to pay respects to his late parents.

 

Thaksin was accompanied during the visit by his children, grandchildren, younger sisters and close relatives, among them Yaowapa Wongsawat, Monthathip Kowitcharoenkul and Yaowaret Shinawatra.

 

The former prime minister said he had not had chances to visit the cemetery for many years, because he was abroad, but, from now on, he will come every year.

 

Asked whether he is happy among his family, Thaksin said with a smile that he has found happiness among his loved ones, unlike the past six months in the Police General Hospital, when he felt depressed.

 

He said that his health has been improving, but he occasionally feels some pain in his back if he moves too much, adding that he needs to wear neck support, but not all the time.

    "adding that he needs to wear neck support, but not all the time."   Whenever he cannot be seen by the people that believe in him.

Was P'Thaskin convicted of writing something ?

 

If not... double standards how exactly ?

Ive no doubt he wrote the order making it open season on suspected drug dealers, leading to nearly three thousand extrajudicial killings.

No, I think if you wish harm on others you bring it onto yourself. Basic principle of buddhism.

Thaksin's improvement in health reminds me of Alan Bond's memory loss during cross-examination. Quite remarkable how he recovered fully after getting out of jail.

Kleenex doing good business on this thread.

So not convicted of writing something.

 

Good that we got that cleared up.

I expect a visit to Bangkok's finest soapie massage in short order to show us all his health is indeed back to normal!!
