Pheu Thai Denies Grooming Yaowapa As Pm's Standin

[Bellweather]

... should Yingluck meet with a political accident... ??? What is this supposed to mean? Could there be a brother/sister rift? What a weird statement.

I have to wonder hat they could fall out over since she's only a puppet and I doubt she has the gonads to disagree with him

[otherstuff1957]

I can just picture the headlines in 2020: "PM Oak denies being high during speach, offers to take of sunglasses as proof."

The Nation is improving in its descriptive terminology.

.

.

Pheu Thai Party Spokesman Prompong Nopparit said Kasem resigned because of health issues and he is also interested in local elections.

.

.

Why was the reason for the resignation of Kasem AKA Santa Claus not stipulated for days and days? Why was it allowed to go on unexplained for an abnormally long time? When they did finally decide on a made-up cover story for his resignation, is that the best they come up with? Something that doesn't make sense. "He's not healthy enough to continue as MP, but he's healthy enough to become district chief".... "He's not interested in the power that accompanies being a Member of Parliament, he'd rather be the Amphur Dog Catcher"...

.

.

Pheu Thai Party Spokesman Prompong... said the party would announce the party candidate to run in the by-election after the Election Commission had announced the by-election day.

.

.

When Santa Claus resigned, why did he fail to notify the Election Commission? They didn't even know about it until yesterday, even though the resignation took effect 4 days ago. If they had been informed properly, the Election Commission would have already announced the by-election date.

Isn't it just that it's Yaowapa's turn to be the stand in PM next?

I would imagine one of his kids would be groomed for the job afterwards if Mr T decides he prefers to run the country from Dubai.

This is the start of the Thaksin dynasty so everyone in the family will be groomed in one way or another for a seamless handover no matter what happens

.

Before Yingluck's name was mentioned for PM, it was all about Thaksin's brother, Payup, becoming PTP's candidate for Prime Minister... but he was such a misfit, he was dropped and Yingluck was pulled out of her figure-head position at her brother's company, SC Asset, and thrust into politics.

Payup, meanwhile, became a monk recently and as is typical of the Shinawatra Klan, still managed to stir up controversy.

Seems he was unrealistically advanced to the position of Deputy Abbot at the temple he was at in an inordinately brief amount of time.

Well maybe not so weird. Accident = honest mistake? What goes around comes around.

The real PM is being investigated by the NACC over allegations she lent 30

million baht to a company in which her common law husband, Anusorn Amornchat, was a

shareholder. The NACC is looking at whether asset concealment was involved.

.

Perhaps she'll go with the "white lie" mitigating defense, that worked so well for her Finance Minister, as to how the US$ 1 Million ended up being transferred from her account to another.

Kasem Nimmoirat,

Health problems ?

Invokes memories of the days of dear old Joe Stalin and a number of his Duma mates who died from blood infections and heart attacks

All such ailments were in many case induced by a Colt 45 or the local Soviet equivalent.

Political life is it seems rather stressful here as well in the old days of Stalins Soviet Russia.

[animatic]

Yaowapa, Oak or the two girls...

Not much of a choice. Witch queen vs glitter or twitter fests.

Pay-Up or Else is a non-starter, ex Mrs. S. doesn't want the job.

Since their cronies in general can't be trusted any more than Samak,

the gene pool is too small for dynasitc success at present.

....credibility is zero for any important issue...event...development....situation or circumstance....

(.....actually, whatever is denied is usually the case....)

.....see the corruption poll in a different post.....

(.....so maybe the Thai people do now have the government they want....)

I think you've got that wrong...

The "real" PM is a guy living in Dubai.

The fake PM is a woman living in Thailand.

Oops, my bad. I stand corrected.

Today, Pheu Thai Party Spokesman Prompong Nopparit said the Party Executive Committee (minus Yingluck, who is not a member of her Party's Executive Committee) had met today and chosen Yaowapa Wongsawat as the Pheu Thai Party candidate to contest the by-election for the MP seat vacated by the resignation of her aide who had taken over the MP seat from her daughter following her disqualification due to lying about her asset declaration.

The by-election will be held for Chiang Mai's constituency district three on April 21st.

Party Spokesman Prompong elaborated that only person nominated to the Party Executive Committee for consideration was Yaowapa.

Actually he was ..........

"Kasem Nimmolrat, Chinnicha's aide and "chauffeur" for Yaowapa, won the by-election last year."

Kasem can you stand in an election for me

Yes M'Lady

[rubl]

Pheu Thai denies something or another

BTW Party Spokesman Prompong elaborated that only person nominated to the Party Executive Committee for consideration was Yaowapa. Please join us in an applause to this lady who already prepared her election victory speech and asset declaration

Jesus......H.......Christ......... Is this the fate of Thailand, just an endless succession of Thaksin puppets?? Would be interesting if Yingluck ended up being a sort of throw away PM, meaning being the lightning rod for the incredible corruption that has occurred in the last year, with charges sure to follow. With of course the rice pledging scheme being the poster child for grandiose looting of the national treasury.. Sometimes I feel sorry for Thai people... :-(

If Yingluck or Yaowapa don't work out, there's more of them just waiting in the wings.... that could take Thailand into the next decade like, amongst others, sister Yaowares.

Here, we will just put all the Shinawatra "ammo" in one pic. I am assuming all the little ones not identified are all possible, future, PM's as well

This is a very good photo of Shinawatra Family. It seems to be Yingluck’s wedding ceremony. Who’s who:

1. Lert
2. Thaksin
3. Potjaman
4. Yaowares
5. Yaowapa
6. Somchai Wongsawat
7. Payap
8. Yingluck
9. Anusorn Amornchat, Yingluck’s husband
10. Panthongtae
11. Pinthongta
12. (seems to be) Paethongtarn

The Henry Ford option for Thailand's Prime Minister - any colour you like so long as its got the right genes.

No strings attached of course.
