webfact Posted May 31, 2012 Share Posted May 31, 2012 Thaksin Apologizes to Red-Shirt People BANGKOK: -- Ousted prime minister Thaksin Shinawatra has apologized to red-shirt supporters for confusing them about his stance. Fugitive former prime minister Thaksin Shinawatra delivered his apology during yesterday's phone-in speech to a group of former Thai Rak Thai executives, to mark the end of their political ban. In his video conference call, Thaksin maintained that he has neither forgotten the favors of red-shirt people nor only paid attention to his gains. His statement was in regard to his previous video-link speech during a recent red-shirt rally, asking his supporters to support the reconciliation bill that includes amnesty for state officials involved in the crackdown on its 2010's demonstrations. His remark has sparked discontent among many red-shirt people. -- Tan Network 2012-05-31 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Robby nz Posted May 31, 2012 Popular Post Share Posted May 31, 2012 How about appologising to the rest of the country for organising and funding the red shirts who caused so much death and dastruction. Or for all the millions (billions) he got away with. Now heres a thought; not about to look back but didnt the Cambodian attacks into Thailand over a so called border dispute start not long after the reds had been dispersed? I know they stopped as soon as the election was won by the PT. Could this have been some sort of plan B to disrupt the country proposed by a (former?) advisor to Hun Sen. If so wouldnt that be the ultimate in treason , arranging for another country to attack your own? 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post carra Posted May 31, 2012 Popular Post Share Posted May 31, 2012 another none story, blown out of all proportion by the forum thaksin haters, even to the extent of accusing him of orchestrating a conflict with Cambodia. Why was it a 'so called' border dispute?? i don't think this is in question, the dispute is in relation to the border area around a certain temple, also a lot of people will dispute that was started by the cambodians, but anyway this is off topic for the thread. the amount of hyperbole thrown around by his haters every time his name is mentioned is embarrassing really, how about before you sling some mud you get your story straight and aligned with any evidence you may have, some of the less educated might start to believe your lies haha, sorry let me just laugh again HAHAHAHA, 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Siripon Posted May 31, 2012 Popular Post Share Posted May 31, 2012 Thaksin let the truth slip out the other day at Rachaprasong when he told the red shirts to forget the deaths and there was no need to demonstrate there again. Now he's trying to backpedal, claiming a bad line and a lack of concentration! Pathetic. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skywalker69 Posted May 31, 2012 Share Posted May 31, 2012 He also said. "I might not have spoken clearly that day. The signal was very bad and was cut off. I could not concentrate and so I believe my message might have been incomplete" Mabye the realitty hit him on the head. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's almost enough to make you sympathise with the Thaksin supporters on this forum when the feel the need to say "I'm no fan of Thaksin, but..." Almost.

Now he's trying to backpedal, claiming a bad line and a lack of concentration! Pathetic. He seems to losing weight in recent photos. Perhaps his lack of concentration is similar in origin to his explanation of those that died at Tak Bai, "because they were already weak from fasting". .

Thaksin and Hun Sen have big time energy business together, it serves both of their interests if he controls Thailand, even if behind the scenes. You can carp "Thaksin haters" all you like, but that doesn't affect the reality his act, nor change the validity of their disliking his actions, based on observations. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

h90 Posted May 31, 2012 Share Posted May 31, 2012 Thaksin makes a habit of saying things that he later regrets. But actions speak louder than words, and they aren't back-pedalling. Actions can be back-pedalling with enough money..... Like you speed in Bangkok, and for 200 Baht it never happened in the mind of the policemen. For 200 Million Baht many actions can be forgotten, or actually never happened.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using Thaivisa Connect App Well, my guess is: First Thaksin thought these red-idiots did their job, I don't need them anymore. Than the PAD came out in respectable shape for someone dead already...... Than Thaksin thought, maybe I need the red-idiots again, lets speak some kind words that will save me millions when I need to hire them again. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
