No plans to shuffle Cabinet: Pheu Thai spokesman

BANGKOK: -- Prime Minister Yingluck Shinawatra has not signalled for shuffling the Cabinet, Pheu Thai spokesman Prompong Nopparit said on Thursday.

Cabinet change is just a rumour designed to cause divisiveness within the ruling party," he said.

Prompong was commenting on today's news reports quoting unidentified sources that former prime minister Thaksin Shinawatra had hinted at changing key portfolios within this month.

Interior Minister Charupong Ruangsuwan, Natural Resources and Environment Minister Vichet Kasemthongsri and Deputy Education Minister Sermsak Pongpanit are among those about to lose their job.

Idle speculation on the inevitable next cabinet reshuffle is never good for the country.

I think it's far better that we wait for word from Dubai and the real PM to announce any decision himself .

High time for a reshuffle!! Almost a month ago since the last one.

What surprises me, is that there still are familymembers and hardcore Thaksians without a ministerial post?

Maybe time to bring in the next generation? The daughter of the Dear leader, who donated 9M of her own ( ) money to the warchest, no doubt will have a bright future in Thai politics!!

[Baerboxer]

Didn't she keep say there were no plans before the last re-shuffle? Literally right up to the last minute figuratively speaking?

What she should say is that big brother has not informed her of any yet.

If the Minister for Fluids, Controlled Floodings and Propellers is sent home for good in the next reshuffle I will make a positive statement about this Government.

This is great. PTP announces that there are no plans for a cabinet reshuffle and these rumors are..."designed to cause divisiveness...." Then, two sentences later, we get the names of three cabinet members designated to lose their jobs. Amazing how government pronouncements have this infinite capacity to become more and more bizarre, and how commonplace the bizarre has become.

Interior Minister Charupong Ruangsuwan, Natural Resources and Environment Minister Vichet Kasemthongsri and Deputy Education Minister Sermsak Pongpanit are among those about to lose their job.

However in Thaksinspeak there is no upcoming cabinet reshuffle scheduled.

Indeed the duplicity of this puppet government is one of the best comedy turns one could wish to both see and hear if only it wasn't so pathetic and damaging to the country .

The requisite trip to meet and put in requests to the leader of the Pheu Thai Party occurred last weekend when several key Cabinet ministers and PTP MP's met with Thaksin in Hong Kong.

The "Thaksin thinks, Pheu Thai acts" clown parade rolls on.

Further details, such as his instructing the visitors to prepare for a general election this year and the likely addition of yet another red shirt leader, Apiwan, to the new Cabinet, are in the other paper.

because there are not many choices left,are there? may the last solution is to anounce super chalerm as ultimate PM in charge of everything and Thailand will be on his way forward in 90 days?

Oh well, guaranteed reshuffle then...out with the old (newish ones) and in with some even newer ones (that don't know diddly...but can deny any knowledge of previous laws/wrongdoing etc)

[Thai at Heart]

Well this is obviously a fib

Pheu Thai party sources say Thaksin pushing for cabinet reshuffle

Looks like a new set of puppies have been taught to sit up and beg.

This sort of instruction from the convicted bail jumping felon is inclined to make one ask, is he losing control over his puppets as they see the writing on the wall as to their role in any Thaksin dictatorship and also the public's eye.

The cauldron of discontent is bubbling gently away on the fire that Thaksin has lit perhaps it may soon start to boil over and the consequences of that boil over may not be pleasant.

A burning branch snatched from the fire may well be come a funeral pyre for the aims of Thaksin and his ilk hence Thaksin feels a need to build a firewall
