Popular Post roiethome Posted July 22, 2013 Popular Post Share Posted July 22, 2013 Make the most of not celebrating this day while you still can. IMHO in a couple of years time, all will be forced to dress up, sing and dance NK style to celebrate the glorious occasion of our eternal brave leaders birthday. On death he will be embalmed, put in a glass mausoleum, should that be nauseleum, on public display in Chiang Mai. Foreigners and Democrats to pay double for admission. I guess it would be worth paying double to be able to spit on him. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jingthing Posted July 22, 2013 Share Posted July 22, 2013 (edited) It seems to me they are deifying him.

Probably motivated by a knowledge and awareness of the man's many misdeeds and crimes, I should think. It is quite possible to despise Thaksin with neither resentment nor jealousy coming into the equation. I, for one, don't care for self-centered megalomaniac thieves. A lot of people feel the same way. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or maybe political satire. Is your comment made out of a strong belief that Dr. Thaksin is innocent, framed for the crime he was convicted of and unlikely to be convicted of the outstanding more serious charges? Or is it simply an expression of your latent feelings of class and social oppression aggravated by a total disdain for the democrats and Hiso elite which causes a inner will to want to believe the PTP propoganda machine and their version of history? Perhaps you could share your idea of Dr, Thaksin's achivements? 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baerboxer Posted July 22, 2013 Share Posted July 22, 2013 I am starting to get the impression that soon there may be a national holiday declared, with prayers at all wats, fireworks displays in major cities (no, not arson), parades by the miltary and processions of boats on the Chao Phraya river lead by Chief Waterman Plodprasop himself. All in the name of The Great Leader, Brother Number One, He Who Must Be Obeyed. Dr.Thaksin Shinawatra. Thaksin_Shinawatra_2.jpg Come on home Thaksin let the games begin. Is your impression motivated by a secret desire to bestow such a celebration on the former PM? Please note that as wonderful a suggestion as it may be, the former PM is a humble man, a man of the people. He would never agree to such a national holiday. Although, I could see his welcoming prayers at the wat for the benefit of the nation such is his love of Thailand. Good one GK Who say's you don't have a sense of humor. I hope you're right Dolly. If his comment is serious then he really is beyond help (and hope). !! Nah, must be joke,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, no could think that......................... could they ??

Popular Post tominbkk Posted July 22, 2013 Popular Post Share Posted July 22, 2013 FUGITIVE FORMER PREMIER Fans prepare for Thaksin's birthday The Nation BANGKOK: -- Supporters of ex-prime minister Thaksin Shinawatra are preparing celebrations across the country for his 64th birthday on Friday. "Some provinces may hold a merit-making ceremony and a prayer for Thaksin's long life and prosperity. Some will stage exhibitions of his achievements,'' deputy Pheu Thai Party spokesman Anusorn Iamsa-ard said yesterday. The events, which have been held every year, would continue this year and vary according to the region. Anusorn said he would join the festivities in Sakhon Nakhon, Nakhon Phanom and Mukdahan. Pheu Thai member Singthong Buachum said last week he is organising activities at Kaew Fah Temple in Nonthaburi. Thaksin is expected to phone in at the event and members of his family would be invited to participate. -- The Nation 2013-07-22 May it be his last! 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post DLock Posted July 22, 2013 Popular Post Share Posted July 22, 2013 I will think of Thaksin on Friday. I will take great personal joy in knowing that he is getting older and is far away from his home and family with little chance of coming back anytime soon as a free man. I hope the only way he comes back home is in a plywood box via Fedex, marked "This way Up". 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
h90 Posted July 22, 2013 Share Posted July 22, 2013 I expect there would be even more of the population who would like to celebrate his death day. And even more wouldn't care what the celebrate as long as there is a party. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Misterwhisper Posted July 22, 2013 Share Posted July 22, 2013 Maybe they should just erect a temple for him somewhere, so they can worship their saintly idol all year round - and gain merit points from him by making generous donations, because by his own admission last year to a Korean newspaper, he is now "down to a few million" (although he cleverly 'forgot' to mention whether that was dollars or baht). It would have to be deep in a jungle. He tends to steer clear away from Thais in large numbers if they are not on his payroll. Could have been Euros but he forgot to mention his diamond mines. Does any one know where he has hidden the money he is making of the rice scam. Buying more property to grow more rice on to sell to the government at over valued prices and process at over priced costs in his other holdings. Well, obviously they could install a lavishly decorated sign at the main entrance reading: "Only if thou are a faithful believer and have seen the good deeds of thy Lord as He hath replenished your earthly possessions with generous gifts may thou enter these hallowed halls and worship thy Saviour in this world and beyond." That should help keeping out the unworthy riff-raff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Torrens54 Posted July 22, 2013 Share Posted July 22, 2013 His family members are invited ! By my last count that will be about 3 million ..........wow busy party That's a large part of the government on a piss up then. How can they have a Piss-up, I thought we were in LENT? (maybe I'll lend you a bottle and you'll lend me a bottle, then we can say it was "Special LENT Alcohol.)
