INTERNAL SECURITY ACT

ISA lifted

BANGKOK: -- Prime Minister Yingluck Shinawatra on Monday signed an order to lift the Internal Security Act (ISA) enforced in three Bangkok districts, the government spokesman said.

Tossaporn Serirak said that ISA would be lifted with immediate effect in Phra Nakhon, Pom Prab and Dusit districts. The ISA had been enforced in the areas ahead of a mass rally held by the Pitak Siam group led by Gen Boonlert Kaewprasit.

Meanwhile, Boonlert denied that he had been paid by former PM Thaksin Shinawatra to bring the rally to an abrupt end on Saturday. He added that Thaksin did once offer him the post of defence minister under Samak Sundaravej's government, but he rejected it.

Boonlert said he chose to call off the rally because police managed to block people heading in from the provinces from joining the rally.

He did not want to see anybody killed or injured.

'Smoke, fire, no, without' rearrange ...........lol.

It really is difficult to believe anything these people say, simply no creditability in their words!

Thailand the 'hub' of lies?

"Thailand the 'hub' of lies?"

Based on 26 years in Asia, I'd say the same description would very much fit

the governments of all the countries I've lived in -- as well as the U.S. gov't.

I don't know about Oz and U.K. Are they better?...

Well in Dubai you can find both in the same set of clothes.

Don't know that much about the one in Bangkok.

But he sure put the fear of what ever Deity Yingluck believes in or pay's lip service to.

Why is constant references and comparisons to western governments? Thailand is light years away from that level of civilization and will probably never climb out of third world status. Yes, I can hear the rebuttals now. The West is corrupt etc, etc. But how do they treat their citizens.? How often is there a coup and a total change in government? The Thais are always trying to rewrite their constitution. I don't see how a society can be more corrupt than Thailand's.

And back to the ISA lifting . . . which is a good thing . . . can that be agreed upon?

Yes it is a good thing it is lifted. Not so sure however about its invoking being a good thing.

No, so you won't find a straight government there either.

Yes, and it has been that way for a long time,

Before you reply you might want to reread some of the posts. We are not all calling it a hub of liars.
