Thaksin is becoming a bit of a liability... Paetongtarn has to protect him, but in doing so is showing a corrupt system.

A corrupt system is THE SYSTEM. Thaksin was only using his god given right for a wealthy man in Thailand, it's just one case out of thousands but due to his political profile he is a legitimate target, no opposition worth its salt is going lo let an opportunity like this slip by, its all part of the game and no doubt Thaksin has anticipated the faux shock and outrage and has a suitable defense at hand.

If I was Tony.....I would get a conflict going with another country, like Cambodia as a diversion to take some of the heat off me.......O-Wait....

Problem with that is that you are bringing in the military and allowing it to gear up

It looks very much like US politics. money and corruption.

I was thinking exactly the same - with particular focus on the current US embarrassment, not to mention the other squalids from various countries worldwide.

Funny how there's never a poll on whether people think the coup masterminds should be in prison - init.

I would rather see the coup masterminds in prison rather than Thaksin, Thaksin certainly is not innocent but the coup masterminds were much worse.
