The Medical Council of Thailand is scrutinising Police General Hospital over the former Prime Minister Thaksin Shinawatra's prolonged stay post-conviction, sparking questions about potential preferential treatment. A special sub-committee, led by former council president Dr Amorn Leelarasamee, is delving into the conduct of medical professionals involved in his care, inspecting whether ethical guidelines were compromised.

 

The council recently dispatched a letter to the hospital’s director-general, demanding comprehensive documentation of Thaksin’s illness and the reasoning behind his extended hospital stay.

 

Specifically, they have requested all medical records, the identities of the doctors involved, and their assessments during his six-month hospitalisation] - the period marked from his admission until February 2023. The deadline for furnishing this information is set for January 15th.

Further amplifying the spotlight, political activists congregated at the National Anti-Corruption Commission this week, urging a timely investigation into Thaksin’s controversial hospitalisation, which needs completion within three months. Their scepticism grows from Thaksin's visibly active lifestyle post-release, which starkly contrasts the earlier narrative of his deteriorating health.

 

Thaksin bore the expenses for his prolonged hospital stay, which amounted to a nightly 8,500 Thai Baht (£188) for a VIP suite on the 14th floor, as confirmed during a parliamentary session last month.

 

Thaksin, who ventured from a career in the police force to becoming a business mogul and later a political leader, returned to Thailand on August 22nd the previous year after spending 15 years in self-induced exile.

 

On his return, Thaksin was promptly detained by authorities and sentenced to eight years in prison due to charges of power abuse and conflict of interest during his tenure before 2006 - later reduced to a single year following royal clemency.

 

His immediate transfer to the hospital was due to health concerns including chest pains and abnormal blood readings noted during his first night in custody.

 

According to legal allowances, Thaksin’s treatment outside prison was initially sanctioned for 120 days; however, the Department of Corrections extended this to 180 days, citing life-threatening jail conditions.

 

Thaksin, aged 75, was ultimately paroled on February 18th, described as "elderly and seriously ill" at the time, despite recent active public appearances without apparent ailments.

 

This unfolding examination throws the duration of his unsupervised activities and implied ailments into contrast as Thaksin recently completed his prison term last August, while vigorously campaigning for the Pheu Thai Party, which is now spearheaded by his daughter, currently serving as Prime Minister, reported Bangkok Post.

Smoke and mirrors

This is all just a big charade if anyone hasn't figured it out yet, He surrendered his heart, soul and the leadership of his party to the Army for a promise for absolute immunity upon his return.

The sub-committee will probe all it likes, all the officials that have involvement have been paid-off for silence.

If receipts/invoices are required as evidence they will be manufactured, dated and signed.

Thaksin is above their pay grade.

All a charade which they hoped the Thai people would swallow... more like it was rammed down their throats as it was all planned out before his return.

I think the military is sending him signals “slow it down or we’ll come after you and your clan ….again”. 

I think he would have gotten better much faster if they told him that any time spent in a hospital would not be counted as time served.

If he only stayed out of the limelight for at least a year afterwards he probably wouldn’t have gotten into such a situation. Sure, nothing will come out of any of these investigations and it just a waste of time and money, but it’s a game that they want to play to get funding from him. 

Changing a brain pacemaker should not take months!!

will tony get a tony award for his acting?

What took so long❓ "The Farce" is strong with this one. Typical continuing BS charade in the Land of Charades. 

This is a report on what a sub-committee are doing, What then, is the main committee doing?

Plus well over a year gone by and they have made no progress on dispersing their election promise of 10,000Baht to every adult (all to come from taxpayers funds). Plus the fact the country can't afford it.
