Paetongtarn Shinawatra to be Nominated as Thailand's New PM

[Dave Grant]

Next will be organised protests followed by a coup to restore peace and order.

[Enoon]

 

Excellent, it can only mean more votes for People Party when the time comes.....if she lasts that long.

Next week 

[chilli42]

57 million people played like a fiddle again.  I have to give it to Taksin he has been working devilishly hard the last 6 months getting things aligned and doling out favors and positions to bring this to pass.

That was the plan all along. They knew appointing the ex con would get Srethai disqualified. Well, let's see how long she lasts.

[YaiJung]

Good lord!  She would be selling phones at the mall if it wasn't for her dad.   You have to be kidding me! 

[nobodysfriend]

Nobody voted for her .

Nobody wants her to become PM outside her circle .

Thailand is a twisted , ridiculous , country .

Thaksin , the liar , enforces his preferences to all of the country .

The party that won the elections is dissolved , it's main politicians banned .

 

Why not make big Joke the PM ?

At least his name would fit the position .

And the country that has a democracy that is a  ( bad )  joke as well ...

"The most powerful position in the country of Thailand" resides in Germany. I also think it's fair to say that the PM if not military royalist establishment, which PTP is not, will only be tolerated if they serve a purpose for the aforementioned  military royalist establishment.

Well said and spot on.

Indeed, barely back in Thailand and he is PM already even if his daughter has the title, one must admit Thaksin is a political genius.

 

In the end , he is a loser .

The next elections will prove that .

Now he has 3 more years to undermine democracy in a way that suits HIM .

He will place more of his muppets in sensible positions to ensure that corruption and nepotism have a secured place in Thailand's political landscape .

Cannot call this democracy anymore ...

If People Party last that long you mean.

[ikke1959]

No experience and father will rule in the end behind the scenes.. That is not constitutional I think and should be stopped

[Kerryd]

Countdown until she tries to have the charges against Auntie Yingluck dropped so she can return to Thailand as well ?

The corruption just doesn't stop. It just gets more and more blatant.

Impeccable portfolio.

Very strange that her impeccable portfolio included shareholdings in media and telecom companies. Isn't this that precluded Pitta from holding office and eventually the dissolution of the Move Forward Party. I presume that I have to use the usual TIT. Sad days for Thailand.

[Task Master]

It's a family business

[ChrisY1]

The next PM has already been selected....the CC and of course one more, have decided....

Whosoever is selected PM, makes no difference....that person is the puppet.

[Shocked farang]

Now, who is going to take care of the silk family business in Chiang Mai? 

I'm worried, the store needs a retrofit! 

[TheFishman1]

Let us think about this whole family matter so he leaves the country for 15 years living the life of a billionaire from all the money is talking the country. His sister get selected Prime Minister and a day or two before the verdict is out and by the way, our house is heavily guarded by Police. She suddenly does it disappearing Houdini and ends up with her brother living the life of billionaires now. The fixes and he comes back I think you’re supposed to serve eight years in prison. I think he spent wet like 45 minutes after lunch. I flew by helicopter to his private suite in the hospital, then gets totally reduced parole back being the puppet master what a perfect plan, let’s not forget his daughter he wants to put in his Prime Minister. I mean she does have a mass in hotel management. You couldn’t make this stuff up it’s unbelievable. TIT.

[HammerGuy]

And so it begins again another shin in the "Big Dogs" job again 

[Ironmike]

Hasn't this country had enough of Taksin and his criminal efforts to pack as much money into his pockets as he can,, it's time for some fresh blood and ideas in Thailand

So, like Pita, she had shares in media companies, but unlike Pita insofar as his were in a defunct company, her's were no doubt in active companies. Where's the constitutional court when you need it?

I'm sure you will move the country somewhere...

This is like a "Pattaya police crack down on noisy Kuwaiti motorcyclists", things never ever change.

Be positive. She studied International Hotel Management. She could be a receptionist at a family friendly guest house in Pattaya, or at least a maid at one....

[Shocked farang]

Taksin is the original "walking ATM" man, 

this is his glory. It only shows that in Thailand money will always come first!

This will be interesting???I hope it will not make unrest and political instability we have witnessed before in LOS!!!!

I'm hoping it does, as long as nobody gets hurt.  TH needs a new Constitution, or an amended one.  Need to get rid of military appointed Senate.

 

Instability is always good for the exchange rate, since the USD continues to lose value  Need to squeeze as much out of it a possible as fast as possible, before the digital USD is instituted ... ME ME ME
