AleG Posted February 3, 2013 Share Posted February 3, 2013 By the same logic Obama is not the President of the USA because he couldn't go around committing crimes without being impeached. 473geo, you've been trotting this brain-dead argument for some days, it's entirely worthless but you seem to be amused by it, bless your heart. Are you saying the USA is a dictatorship, I had no idea.........because we are being told Taksin controls, runs, Thailand, we are told on this forum the Shinawatras run Thailand, sorry guys.......if he is ever allowed to return he will be told how and when, he is allowed to dabble and influence politics at the moment nothing more....(and those with an element of understanding will know why this is)........others will carry on in their confused state totally accepting that a man who is supposedly controlling the country is still living in Dubai......

Popular Post Skywalker69 Posted February 3, 2013 Popular Post Share Posted February 3, 2013 (edited) Oh right,so you just point the finger where it can go, rather than where it should go, demand charges, trials, and 'justice' against one individual only..who according to some is only involved through 'circumstantial' evidence...some admission...as I have said previously Thaksin is a convenient patsy, possibly also for the keyboard warriors who dare not venture further. I take it you haven't heard the old joke, to Auditor, what is 1+1 answer 2, to economist, what is 1+1 answer 2 maybe 2.5, to accountant, what is 1+1 answer, what do you want it to be? I said none of those things - but a convenient diversion for you to say so, as is the 1+1 red herring. Let's simplify things - one step at a time. What is your take on the assets concealment case - seems a simple enough question? Didn't he thank the government for being kind enough to give him back 30 billion baht? Mustn't have been as serious as they first thought Do you mean this case? This is not the first time that Thailand's beleaguered PM has faced judgement from the court, nor may it be the last. In 2001 the court acquitted Thaksin by an even closer 8-7 vote. The charge in that case was concealment of assets. Or this case? Thailand's highest court has ruled that ousted prime minister Thaksin Shinawatra concealed his assets while in office and abused his power for personal gain, and ordered the seizure of 46bn baht (£923m) of his £1.5bn in frozen assets. The supreme court ruled today that "to seize all the money would be unfair since some of it was made before Thaksin became prime minister" Or maybe you are quoting Thaksin? Thaksin said to his supporters as ”he had 84,000 billion baht before entered to political sphere and Thieves (Court) stole his money” but if compared the officail data of National Anti Corruption Committee (NACC) which all thai politicians must delear asset to NACC before/after be minister. it’s not times when Thaksin and family had money nearly 84,000 billions. And less than two weeks later the red shirts invaded Bangkok. Coincidence? I think not. Edited February 3, 2013 by Skywalker69 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Geo can you stop confabulating or is it a compulsion? Firstly nobody is saying Thaksin runs Thailand, but he does run the PTP party and by proxy the Thai Government. Secondly there is no reason why Thaksin cant return to Thailand, its entirely his choice. However, If he ruturns he would have to submit to Thailands laws and regulations. thirdly the only group who accepts that a convicted criminal living in Dubai controls the Thai government, are his supporters.

maidu Posted February 4, 2013 Share Posted February 4, 2013 So has Thaksin, or any of his spokesmen, here or in the USA, yet denied the article's claim that he makes major government decisions and communicates them by Skype, and is therefore effectively running the country from offshore ? If not ... that's quite a big silence, isn't it ? Why should he deny anything, strokes the ego you all insist he carries....and doesn't impact the actuality of the situation, I'm sure Thaksin is as aware as anybody that even a denial would make no impression on those that believe what they will......are you expecting a denial? Of course T would deny it. He has no choice but to deny he controls government appointments, policies and decisions. What do expect him to say, "Ok, you found me out. I not only heavily influence my sister and all her minions, I essentially direct what they do and say."? Along with that is T's credibility factor. He's got zero credibility. If you look at every public statement he's made during and after his PM post, you'll see that none are true. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post siampolee Posted February 4, 2013 Popular Post Share Posted February 4, 2013 (edited) I am curious as to why Thaksin himself and also and the assorted marionettes led by Yingluck under her brothers orders have not threatened a libel action against the N.Y. Times ? Thaksin was and still is as we are all well aware a great proponent of libel actions against his detractors yet no sabre rattling threats of legal actions are to be seen or heard from Thaksin, One can only but presume that the inaction is an admittance of truth of the article in the N.Y.Times This being the case does it not send a clear signal to all that the report in question is indeed a factual matter thus if a libel action was undertaken the evidence presented by the defence in favour of the N.Y. Times would clearly demonstrate the truth of the matter and Thaksin and his associates as the plaintiffs would lose their case.. The fact being that it is entirely indisputable that this current mladministration is in fact totally under the control of a bail jumping convicted criminal who has a number of non Thai passports and lives in a foreign country. The control factor is surely proved by the fact that a large number of the current maladministration openly admit to meeting with their puppet master on a regular basis outside of Thailand to receive their orders and rewards, this is of course common knowledge. Again the matter of Thaksin controlling the current maladministration is proved beyond reasonable doubt. All those facts combined would indeed render the defense offered by Thaksin totally useless. Coupled with that fact is why isn't the N..Y.Times subject to internet censorship by the Thai authorities if the report is incorrect which has happened to other publications that have published articles deemed t be hostile to Thailand and its peoples ?

Reading through the thread, your ramblings and obfuscation make it very difficult to clearly understand what you are trying to say with regards to whether Thaksin is running or controlling or influencing the Govt. So how about some yes or no answers please to these questions (no explanations, just a yes or no answer): Is Thaksin a convicted criminal? Is Thaksin advising members of the Govt, including his sister? Was he elected to be part of this current Govt? Did Thaksin incite or encourage the last round of rioting which resulted in many deaths? Did Thaksin phone in to the Red shirt stage during said riots on a daily basis? Was his aim to create chaos and force a change in Govt by painting the Democrats in a bad light for their handling of the situation? Is Yiingluck a competent businesswoman? Is Yingluck a competent PM? Do you believe Thaksin has an undue detrimental influence on the running of the country? Do you believe that Thaksin will return to fight his conviction legally through the Courts and face up to the other charges or will he wait until "amnesty" is forced through? Should a criminal convicted of "financial irregularities" be able to influence ANY part of Govt? Do you believe that Thaksin has any interests at heart other than his own? Lastly this one is not a yes or no: Who else is exerting influence over the current Govt if it's not Thaksin? I look forward to your replies 473geo. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hellodolly Posted February 5, 2013 Share Posted February 5, 2013 (edited) 327 replies and I see geo is still rambeling to be expected. Has any opne ever heard of a Thaksinite excepting reality. After 327 replies I wonder if Yingluck is still saying she is the real Prime Minister. She knows she is not but as she is a clone of a proven speaker of false facts it comes easy for her to claim it. It is in her genes. edit An example of reality I can not spell very well and some time I forget to check my spell checkker. As I obviousley have done here.
