Changian Posted November 25, 2009 Share Posted November 25, 2009 Wonder how long it will be before this story is shown to be just another sad PR stunt by the Foreign Ministry, as they know no Thai journalists will bother to fact check before printing it. Seeing as the report mentions 'several African countries' having given him a new passport and then lists Nicaragua, Uganda and Montenegro as the countries in question, I have my doubts about it's accuracy.

groovyc Posted November 25, 2009 Share Posted November 25, 2009 So this means, and I never knew it was this easy; "original name" has was a warrant for his/her arrest. By changing name tags, we don't recognize the person because we can't get past the name tag? And therefore, they become invisible, or can't legally be arrested, because no one is anything more than a name? Thai politics, aka ludicrous, that doesn't make sense either I gather. oy! Reminds me of an article on the Bangkok Post last weekend by the title "Catch me if you want, but you don't want to, do you?" or something to that effect. The author provides reasonable arguments toward the claim that the Thai govt (the one that calls itself the govt now) deliberately avoids catching him. This story is in favour of that view...why didn't I ever think of it now?? makes a lot of sense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jingthing Posted November 25, 2009 Share Posted November 25, 2009 Shinegra does sound vaguely pan-African/pan-Latino. Maybe he just wants to fit in. it is common for immigrants to change their names in order to assimilate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This story is in favour of that view...why didn't I ever think of it now?? makes a lot of sense. I think ultimately Thai Gov DOES NOT want Takki in Thailand. Why? Because even he is not in Thailand, he can create such a damage in the Thai society already. If he is captured, put in jail, I can see a riot between the Red, yellow and other groups. That's why Thai Gov. never pursue him, but keep him far away from Thailand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
backsoon Posted November 25, 2009 Share Posted November 25, 2009 'Takki/Tacky' by nature now by name. The global media presents him as a fool in the global media, and the Thai government appears equally helpless in its clueless attempt to capture him. On the international stage Thailand is portrayed as a weak and ineffectual regime; which is not true. However, unless Khun Abhisit acts decisively the portrayal will persist and the country's repuation will be damaged forever. When did you leave this stage? Who said 'weak and ineffective'? (if this is what you mean) Who said this is not true? What reputation? (if this is what you mean) Wake up, buddy...

h90 Posted November 25, 2009 Share Posted November 25, 2009 I would like an official moderator ruling on whether we are allowed now to refer to Thaksin as Takki Shinegra or Takki as it is against forum rules to refer to politicians in anything other than their actual names (nicknames are verbotten). As he has named himself Takki Shinegra or Takki it seems reasonable now for us to be allowed to do the same here on this forum. Ruling please? As it is his passport name is should be allowed. or maybe call him "The Thakki formerly known as Shinawatra" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jingthing Posted November 25, 2009 Share Posted November 25, 2009 i agree the most peaceful outcome of this is for Takki to give up the ghost and live quietly in exile enjoying the money he still will have after the court ruling. That is what a normal disgraced corrupt Thai ex-PM would do. Somehow I don't think he will ever accept his defeat, it is a shame because the result is so destructive.

I mean, he was allowed to leave initially. Added to this any protests or civil disobedience that pops up only strenghtens the current govt and military's hand as they can invoke the ISA.
