webfact Posted February 10, 2012 Share Posted February 10, 2012 PM denies misconduct at Bangkok hotel The Nation BANGKOK: -- Prime Minister Yingluck Shinawatra said yesterday that she had not done anything morally questionable while she was at a Bangkok hotel earlier this week. "I did not have a meeting there. But as prime minister, I can meet anybody at a public place. It is not damaging," she said. "I am a woman, and I insist I did not do anything wrong." When asked if she would take legal action against outspoken businessman Akeyuth Anchanbutr for suggesting that she may have been party to misconduct, Yingluck said: "I will be patient. I believe people will carefully consider what he says." On Thursday, Akeyuth told the press that he happened to run into the prime minister while he was at the Four Seasons Hotel on Wednesday afternoon. He said that he had only seen the premier from a distance and 10 minutes after she left the premises he was attacked by a man. "It could be because I was in the wrong place at the wrong time and saw something I should not have," he said. Deputy government spokesman Anusorn Iamsa-ard said yesterday that he was suspicious about Akeyuth's claim that someone from Yingluck's security detail had attacked him, adding that there was a "hidden agenda" behind this allegation. At the press conference, Akeyuth described his alleged assailant as an armed officer in plainclothes. Akeyuth claimed that the man was about to draw a handgun before his bodyguards came to his rescue. He added that the assailant fled after his bodyguards intervened. "The assailant knows and is close to former prime minister Thaksin Shinawatra," Akeyuth said, adding that he would not file a police complaint. Anusorn said Akeyuth had "plotted a good story", adding that his decision against filing a police complaint aroused suspicion. "If the attack was not a set up, maybe he was attacked because many people dislike him," the spokesman said. He also rejected Akeyuth's theory that the alleged assailant was a man in uniform. Akeyuth, a businessman who runs the politically oriented website Thai Insider, is well known for his staunch criticism of Thaksin - Yingluck's older brother. He has also recently said that Yingluck was unsuitable for the premier's post and has also made comments about her that could be considered sexist against women from the North. Meanwhile, national police chief General Priewpan Damapong yesterday urged Akeyuth to file a police complaint so his case can be investigated and the authorities can obtain pertinent information such as the examination of his wounds. Priewpan said he did not think the alleged attack had anything to do with the prime minister's security detail. "The prime minister is a woman, so I don't think she would allow the use of violence," he said. Deputy Prime Minister Chalerm Yoobamrung also rejected the claim that someone in the PM's security team was involved in the attack, adding that Akeyuth should not have tried to link Yingluck to this matter or tried to politicise it. Meanwhile, opposition leader Abhisit Vejjajiva called on the government to explain what happened in order to quell any suspicion that this matter has something to do with the premier. -- The Nation 2012-02-11 related topic: Activist Claims He Was Hit By Thai Pm's Security Guard http://www.thaivisa....security-guard/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Siam Simon Posted February 10, 2012 Share Posted February 10, 2012 ".....Akeyuth said, adding that he would not file a police complaint." This guy has already established that he has a both mouth and brain that come from somewhere below the sewers. He should either put up or shut up. What a gobsh1te!.

ThaiOats Posted February 10, 2012 Share Posted February 10, 2012 Yeah if he indeed set up a scene where he gets someone to beat him up to discredit Yingluck, that's pretty low. Let's see if they follow up on this beyond the weekend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FOODLOVER Posted February 10, 2012 Share Posted February 10, 2012 Where's the video? His bodyguards let an armed assailant flee? Not filing a police report? The Four Seasons has an excellent security detail as well, so what gives? But when the PM comes out with this ridiculous statement, "I did not have a meeting there. But as prime minister, I can meet anybody at a public place. It is not damaging," she said. "I am a woman, and I insist I did not do anything wrong." Besides sounding naive and foolish, what was she doing upstairs in the guest rooms? Married, right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm so sorry but i'm married but yes, physically a legal adult and i am glad that you are wise enough to look for moral guidance through my posts on Thai Visa. Slap and Tickle a-ok in my book! But with the PMs assumption that she can meet anyone in public because she woman is just stupid. The Thai PM can not meet Mugabe at the Four Seasons even though it is quite lovely for obvious reasons. Nor could she meet Osama at Hotel St. Nisa( Customer service sucks) but her logic in her statement appears to say something like lets pull a sentence out of my rectum and see if it works here. I used to have these books that my mom would give me to travel. They were call MAD Libs. Well, seems like someones taken this idea and started governing a country with it. They were quite hilarious when you inserted random words in the sentences. Sort of like in example, The parrot says_________. One would think" Polly want a cracker", but noooo, she inserted " Rule of Law". Quite humorous, really. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Siam Simon Posted February 11, 2012 Share Posted February 11, 2012 She has tried to project herself as living a happily married life, during the canvassing for the election last year her nine year son Nong Pipe was constantly at her side, presumably it was the holidays for his international school, and on her spouse, Khun Anusorn's birthday, the family posed for pictures together for the press. To be honest for most Thais her marital status is a mystery but in Thailand that's not unusual. I remember when Khun Chuan was the PM and one of my more conservative colleagues was complaining it was a disgrace that he was living with a woman and not married to her. But he had no choice, her husband refused to grant her a divorce. But how can she project herself as happily married when she's apparently not married? Anyway, trying to make political capital out of this (not that I'm accusing you personally of doing this Siripon) stinks to high heaven, as much as it would capitalising on Prem's sexual activities.

waza Posted February 11, 2012 Share Posted February 11, 2012 I read the report in a publication that cant be mentioned, Akeyuth Anchanbutr alleges he spotted Yingluck enter the hotel with a guy they went to a room and came back two hours later and left the hotel. Then he was assulted and his bodyguards came to his rescue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
draftvader Posted February 11, 2012 Share Posted February 11, 2012 "The prime minister is a woman, so I don't think she would allow the use of violence," Really? How many stories on Thai Visa are about Thai women attacking people? The back-stabbing of Thai politics (and Pattaya hotel rooms) continues.

pimay11 Posted February 11, 2012 Share Posted February 11, 2012 (edited) Nothing is stronger than the truth. All Yingluck has to do is state the reason she went to the hotel and who she met with. If it was innocent there is no reason for her not to do so. This would put an end to the entire "why was she there" episode. I wonder why she has not already done this? On the other side of the coin if it was not so innocent then I can understand her silence on the matter.
