percy2 Posted September 12, 2008 Share Posted September 12, 2008 (edited) Thai party 'drops Samak for PMThailand's ruling party has dropped ousted PM Samak Sundaravej as its nominee for the job, say party sources. The decision marks an apparent U-turn by the People's Power Party (PPP), which earlier seemed determined to re-nominate him to the post. Protesters have been demanding for weeks that Mr Samak should resign. The apparent confirmation that he is no longer in contention for the post may pave the way for a settlement of the political crisis, analysts say.

doctormann Posted September 12, 2008 Share Posted September 12, 2008 (edited) So, Samak won't be going to the UN on 23rd September? So, he'll be able to attend his court hearing on the 25th? So, he'll be off to the monkey house when his conviction for defamation is confirmed? Or maybe not! Ah well, if it comes to the crunch I'm sure that he will be able to improve on the cuilinary standards at the Bangkok Hilton! DM B*gger, I'll have to redo my avatar again!

missismiggins Posted September 12, 2008 Share Posted September 12, 2008 Where is there any report that Samak has given up? All the reports I saw were that the vote has been postponed (probably while he gives them a good thrashing to tow the line). Any links? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
