Baseless optimism. 


Optimism? Absolutely.

 

Baseless. Not so much.

 

Cares what you think. Not at all.

Great.

 

So point out one thing thst indicates they are rolling this back. One instance where peu Thai has indicated it plans on reversing its own policy.

 

The manged to duck out of the digital wallet scheme by throwing srettha under the bus, but that was simply convenient. They had no intention of following up on hollow promises. 

 

Thst is not the case here, there is only upside in the tax.

Why is he in uniform

Thaksin is a nobody and a convicted criminal, yet here he is in that photo all dressed up in the official white  suit. Why? Is he even entitled to wear such a  suit, seeing as he is NOT a Thai official of any kind? Should he not be arrested and prosecuted for impersonating a government official?

Echoed my thoughts when I saw the news. I asked two Thai people who looking at the same and you'll never guess what they said to me...TIT. Ha, I had to laugh. They also said that they didn't know why he was allowed to do this. I'll keep an eye open to see if any news programme explains it.

The royal pardon does not absolve Thaskin from his crimes he is still a convicted felon all it does is release him from his parole,   his conviction still stands, so i ask again why is a convicted criminal in uniform

While I agree with you it seems that Thailand doesn't agree with our view. Aagain from The Nation yesyerday apparently during an interview quote; 'When asked if he would assist in a political capacity, Thaksin replied, “No, I’m too old for that. I’m 75.”

So it seems that The Nation has assumed that he would be allowed to take office. Incredible!

Would not believe anything that comes out of his mouth, in another article she says she would like him to be a government advisor but would have to be within the law. i think they are well aware of the ruling on Srettha  need to let it die down and do later
