Master Chief Posted June 17, 2008 Share Posted June 17, 2008 Star Gazing Former prime minister Thaksin Shinawatra on Monday urged Thais to put their faith in astrology, and blamed the alignment of plants for the current economic and political troubles. Street protests against the Thaksin government have been rumbling since May 25, while soaring oil prices and inflation have shaken investors and prompted farmers and transport workers to threaten strikes. This is because Mars and Saturn are close together, Mr Thaksin claimed on Monday. He added that the troublres will ease soon. "Be patient until July 2," he said. "When Mars leaves, the situation will improve." Mr Thaksin has put great stock in predictions of fortune tellers and astrologers. When he was prime minister, Mr Thaksin ordered the first plane at the new Suvarnabhumi airport to land t precisely 9:19am because a seer had convinced him it was an auspicious moment. For a while, he cancelled weekly press conferences, claiming that Mercury was not in a favourable alignment. For all his faith in fortune tellers, he was completely taken by surprise when the army overthrew him in a coup on Sept 19, 2006.
