Moonrakers Posted March 1, 2010 Share Posted March 1, 2010 Don't be silly. It is only farangs and the 'elite' who don't like Thaksin. Don't be silly. That is incorrect. At least in Bangkok. Do I need to explain sarcasm for you or can you find out yourself? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
britmaveric Posted March 1, 2010 Share Posted March 1, 2010 Well done - contributions are always welcome. Hope they collect 76B worth of donations for Khun T. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
somtampet Posted March 1, 2010 Share Posted March 1, 2010 If there is a civil war,the Bangkok elite will be stripped of their assets,as many of them have done a Thaksin and stolen the dosh. While I'd rather not see a civil war whilst living here, such an outcome would be desirable. I agree with your view here. They're filthy rich and their gains and their power are just as ill-begotten as that of Mr T. If it is a non-violent civil war then i would be all for wealth distribution,maybe the country would benefit from the vultures of the thai society Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chaimai Posted March 1, 2010 Share Posted March 1, 2010 More likely is that the money is to fund the protests; You need buses, food, water, facilities, a stage, dancing girls, etc. I don't mind chipping in for the dancing girls. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
savepak Posted March 1, 2010 Share Posted March 1, 2010 eat rats,bugs,dogs,green stuff in nature,The young once go Bangkok and earn 100 or 200 bath a day and send the most back home to their family . Well done - contributions are always welcome. Hope they collect 76B worth of donations for Khun T. Clearly these villagers are the perfect source for a billionaire to regain billions. They obviously have plenty so they should be very willing to part with a large part of that excess in order to help a nearly starving man. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
savepak Posted March 1, 2010 Share Posted March 1, 2010 (edited) By the way.Jingthing is actually Hitting that nail with the hammer,and he do not "miss" much! Thank you for your post above this one that indicates Jingthing's concerns are the right ones. I've also seen how things work in Roi-Et and it's very similar as to how you describe and how Jingthing wonders about.

ovenman Posted March 1, 2010 Share Posted March 1, 2010 Well done - contributions are always welcome. Hope they collect 76B worth of donations for Khun T. I'm sure he'd welcome some monetary donations from London if you wanna pass the hat 'round the office some morning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
britmaveric Posted March 1, 2010 Share Posted March 1, 2010 ^nah I'd rather keep my dosh, safe/sound in Thailand. Besides think he took enough with the MAN CITY sale. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
surayu Posted March 1, 2010 Share Posted March 1, 2010 from what i can see first hand in my area, talking to the reds about "possible past faults" of their leader is a "tabu"(one of the many in this country), they will categorically refuse to talk about their responsabilities, every now and then a few locals dare to wear a yellow shirt they get lots of "big mouths" going on, now, i don't like either of them but that doesn't really matter, just reporting what i see in my neighbourood....

But then, he says following that post that he keeps his money in Thailand? I don't understand that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eldar1 Posted March 1, 2010 Share Posted March 1, 2010 I'll give a donation to poor khun thaksin, only question though can it be in origami birds ? i still have a ton left from 2004, they're a bit miffy but still very nice! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ricardo Posted March 2, 2010 Share Posted March 2, 2010 ^nah I'd rather keep my dosh, safe/sound in Thailand. I suspect this is more a comment, about the relative strength of the Thai economy and currency, compared to what remains of the UK after a dozen years of socialist-leadership.

craigt3365 Posted March 2, 2010 Share Posted March 2, 2010 Here is the latest from the coconut wire. In the village, rumors abound that when HE returns everyone will get one million baht.

sawadeeken Posted March 2, 2010 Share Posted March 2, 2010 POOR "Mr. T"................. Now a few of his "die-hard" supporters are passing the hat for him..............

Remember Mao's "cultural" revolution? The experienced doctors were sent to the sticks to work the fields by hands and when you went to the doctor you got a 16 year old medical student.

They're loaded. I can just see you explining this to the Chalerm (the PM in waiting should the reds have theri way) family. Does the phrase "bullet in the head" come to mnd?

britmaveric Posted March 2, 2010 Share Posted March 2, 2010 If you say so. Anyways if they want to donate the little dosh they have to Khun T then so be it, but I think at the end of the day it wont be much and prob better use for the little guy. I think more a gesture of support than anything else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neverdie Posted March 2, 2010 Share Posted March 2, 2010 Reminds me of Ferdinand and Imelda Marcos showing videos of friends bringing donations of food to them. Ohh I remember that.......what is this world coming to? As someone said, if Mr thaksin was any sort of fellow he would immediately stop this sort of thing from happening, surely he isnt going to rob these people again.
