Link Here. Simple question. Do you believe anything he says? Soundman. Spam comes from inside an oval shaped tin and, for the life of me, I can't draw a parallel to the ex chairman and the drivel that comes from his mouth to keep his personal circus / charade full of momentum.

Chang_paarp Posted February 28, 2008 Share Posted February 28, 2008 In a word..... NO. The man could not lie straight in bed. Even my girlfriend from Issan does not believe him, although most of her colleagues in the government office still think he is the best thing since sliced bread. Bloke in the bar next door put 30K on the event he will be in power by April next year. I think he may be out by a little but not that much.

Ricardo Posted February 28, 2008 Share Posted February 28, 2008 Unfortunately, NO. He says things like this, while at the same time he finances & pulls-the-strings of the PPP, how is that not getting involved in politics ? He says, boarding the plane in Hong Kong, that he doesn't expect a big crowd to meet him in Bangkok, while at the same time his web-site Hi-Thaksin exhorts fans to gather to greet him on-arrival. You simply cannot believe anything he says. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jandajoy Posted February 28, 2008 Share Posted February 28, 2008 Seemed to be a pretty poor turn out really. The boss thinks he's great! 300BHT for voting..... money for nothing. It doesn't really matter whether he returns to politics or not. He owns them all already. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
midas Posted February 28, 2008 Share Posted February 28, 2008 I believe he will not take the " lead position " again but remain in the background and very much in control behind the scenes. In some ways it can be better for him because he can do deals on the side without being under the spotlight as PM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

traveller5000 Posted February 28, 2008 Share Posted February 28, 2008 sometimes I really want to believe what he says, but he has disappointed me so many times I have learned this man can not be trusted. give it some time and he will be back....

Jingthing Posted February 28, 2008 Share Posted February 28, 2008 I believe. I believe. He has an honest face.

Beardog Posted February 28, 2008 Share Posted February 28, 2008 (edited) Taksin........Gohok mai? He can't even believe the bull that he spews out. He probably just came to collect the missing pipes of baht they never found or mentioned again. Besides he would most likely get exonerated as most lying political figures get pardoned in the end.
