george Posted August 26, 2009 Share Posted August 26, 2009 Thaksin banished from Dubai, fleeing to Montenegro: Thepthai BANGKOK: -- Ex-premier Thaksin Shinawatra has been expelled from Dubai and is presently living in exile in Montenegro since Tuesday, Democrat MP Thepthai Senpong said on Wednesday. Theptai quoted a report from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs to back up his claim. He said United Arab Emeriates authorities asked Thaksin to leave after he continued to use Dubai as base for his anti-government activities. Thaksin made a phone-in on August 13 at the red-shirt rally to submit the pardon petition. -- The Nation 2009-08-26 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

webfact Posted August 26, 2009 Share Posted August 26, 2009 (edited) that story smells fishy... He was always welcomed with open arms in Dubai as he seems to have large investments in that country. I am wondering why he was "expelled" abruptly... He's a fox on the run but he can't hide and run forever... I believe something in Taskins logistics went dead wrong!

baht&sold Posted August 26, 2009 Share Posted August 26, 2009 Aide: Thakskin not ejected from UAE Noppadon Pattama, legal adviser for former premier Thaksin Shinawatra said it was incorrect that the UAE requested the fugitive politician to leave the country because it does not want to be a base for his political activities. Mr Noppadon said the UAE has never requested Thaksin to leave, as claimed by Prime Minister Abhisit Vejjajiva's spokesman Thepthai Senpong. "What Mr Thepthai said is a lie," Mr Noppadon said. "The UAE has never asked him (Thaksin) to leave the country." He also said that Thaksin holds a Montenegro passport and had spent a few nights in the UAE before travelling to Africa to look at diamond mines. ''He is visiting three countries in Africa, but I won't reveal what they are because I don't want Foreign Minister Kasit Piromya to cause him any problems," he said. article: http://www.bangkokpost.com/breakingnews/15...ant-thaksin-out -- Bangkok Post 26 Aug 2009 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hammered Posted August 26, 2009 Share Posted August 26, 2009 Lets await the denial. Without a doubt Thaksin has business deals in Dubai. And with their economy in tatters even by other countries standards they probably wont want to lose anyone with a bit of money. Weird if Thaksin voices concern for safety. Stuff like that reduces numbers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

george Posted August 26, 2009 Author Share Posted August 26, 2009 Update: Thaksin not banished from UAE BANGKOK: -- Fugitive ex-Thai PM Thaksin Shinawatra left the United Arab Emirates because he is invited to make official visits to three countries in Africa, Thaksin's former legal advisor Noppadon Pattama said Wednesday. Noppadon said he already telephoned Thaksin to check accuracy of a report that the UAE banished Thaksin because the country did not want him to use the country as a base to attack Thailand. "Khun Thaksin dismissed the report as groundless. The UAE government did not ask him to leave the country. He left the country recently for Montenegro to do some business, returned to the UAE and stayed there for two nights." "Khun Thaksin is now visiting three African countries as guest of those governments. He plans to give consultation on poverty alleviation and introduce the economy sufficiency farms." -- The Nation 2009-08-26 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plus Posted August 26, 2009 Share Posted August 26, 2009 Pity Nation's archives do not stretch very far, and no chance of retrieving those old images, but here is what search came up with: http://www.nationmultimedia.com/search/ads...gabe&page=6 From January 2002: President Robert Mugabe of Zimbabwe is back in Bangkok for his second visit in three months. Mugabe has expressed his delight with the warm reception he has received. It is not surprising he is back considering there are not too many countries in the world that would allow such a brutal, ruthless leader to set foot within their borders. Perhaps the Thai government has discovered an undeveloped tourist market. Who will be next to enjoy our fair country, perhaps Saddam Hussein, Slobodan Milosevic, Osama bin Laden? For a thugfree Thailand Bangkok >>> And from a couple of months earlier - the days when Thaksin forged the ring of Democracy in Thailand Unsavoury companion in a Thai tuk tuk It disgusts me to see pictures of our prime minister riding a tuk tuk with Robert Mugabe, the president of Zimbabwe. Next to Osama bin Laden, Mugabe is probably the most despicable person on the planet. Is our PM unaware of the misery Mugabe has inflicted on Zimbabwe, or doesn't he care? Why is he willing to sell our country's soul to such a devil just for a little more trade? Somwang Charthong BANGKOK Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
