Thaksin's son Panthongtae slams Democrats in Facebook posting

[mrtoad]

Oak, can't really be compared to Chelsea Clinton. the revolting Mark Thatcher is a closer comparison, although his Father thought his son was an idiot.

[Thai at Heart]

Not the brightest Shinawat in the box is he? But then we knew that already.

Of course all politicians are concerned they will lose any political 'game'......... that's the essence of politics after all.

Could you imagine any grown up country giving 2 hoots what the son of someone has to say about something like this?

Shall we interview Tony Blair's son on tax policy in the UK, or bush's daughters on where they think the fed maybe going wrong with qe ?

Grow up Thailand and stop this dynastic political style on all sides of the spectrum.

Maybe Oak should meet Chelsea Clinton. Two of a kind.

Except that Chelsea Clinton is extremely intelligent.

And knows more or less to keep her opinions to herself about politics.

[marcusd]

Dear boy, I dont think POLITICS is a GAME - especially when you have over 66 MILLION of your countrymen depending on YOU and services GOVERNMENT run by your CLAN are supposed to provide not take away.. Further to this, Denegrading EVERYTHING the government does should be DENEGRADING EVERYTHING THE GOVERNMENT SAYS they WILL DO but NEVER DOES.

And Every child loves his parents. Even Hitlers Dogs loved him. Even Stalins Children loved him. Even Idi Amin was loved by his family.

Your father has RAPED this country, pillaged the coffers of the people for HIS benefit and benefit YOU and your kin and thieving clans have attained is all from STEALING not BRAINS or work or skill.

In our "WESTERN" countries (Forgive me But I will include Koreas and Japan I with us as we think more alike) this BENEFIT by DECEPTION is punishable by GAOL PRISON... But it should be DEATH to your father for the crimes against his people he has committed. FORGET Thai justice. A 10000 baht "GIFT" gets most jobs done here..... The AMOUNT - the SHEER AUDACIOUS AMOUNTS and GROTESQUELY large fiscal sums siphoned off from GENEROUS OVERSEAS Governments wanting to HELP YOUR COUNTRY which your father and cohorts and obviously you have benefitted from is scandallous! Dont take me back to the PHUKET SUNAMI where I was there after helping and your Fathers team of gansters were pilfering every dime from Gernerous people overseas cvoncerned aboiut your peoples sufering. I would GLADLY thump sense in to your empty head and leave this land knowing I had done something to help where YOU SHOULD and have not. SHOVE YOUR FACEBOOK up your empty rear passage!

Look anywhere in Bangkok and see the signs "Donated by The People (yes the bloody peopel) of BELGIUM AUSTRALIA USA GERMANY FRANCE and so forth and this young man is why YOUR FATHER is limited to nations harbouring him which are nations we visit to laugh at NOT TO LIVE IN.

It seems evident to me that WE THE FARRANG of Thailand are uptight anbouty all this because we LOVE your country, the peopel and things within - moreso than you gangs of murderous thieves who should LOVE the amazing land you have!

Is there any BRIGHT one in any box?

[yoshiwara]

Maybe he would like to tell us what he thinks now about the funds Thaksin laundered through his son's and other family members' bank accounts.

[marcusd]

No they're doing the right thing and opposing letting your crook of a father return a free man and also get back the billions he's conned.

Every coin has two heads. The Red idiots just one the side with the Dubai criminal on it.

Neither Thaksin or his son know anything about coins, all their money is in notes. Billions and billions, and where exactly did it all come from ????

One of the poorest countries in the world with so FEW getting to be amonsgt the richest. How might that be Mr Oak?

[petedk]

He is an odious individual, much like his father. Also known for cheating in exams, certainly not someone that people should respect or trust.

I remember that but I can't remember the outcome. I guess I don't have to ask.

Let me think "Uhm it was an honest mistake. I was revising last night and I forgot that I put the notes in my pocket. They slipped out when I took a tissue to wipe the sweat off my head/"

"No problem son. We believe you."

How can anyone respect people like this?

[Arkady]

Is The Nation really so naive that they believe Oak writes his FB page himself?

Get serious.

[LuckyLew]

What an a hole

Guess he forgot his father paid for a huge rally and protest that shut down the center of Bkk in 2010

Just another shinawatra who is clueless

Thailand isn't poor, not even close.

And please check which are the richest families/clans here. They've been raping and pillaging the country a lot longer than the Shinawatras, yet posters here are so obsessed with Thaksin you'd think they didn't exist.

[FarangTalk]

What is not to admire about young Pangtongtae?

He's incredibly rich, has never done a hard day's work in his life, is a proven cheat and a liar, and is young, light skinned and effeminate looking.

He's everything that these people aspire to be.

The Shinawatras have been raping and pillaging the people for several generations. Thaksin just moved up from raping and pillaging Chiang Mai to raping and pillaging the country.

Wow Kinden Garden kids are interested in politics. Boy they start early these days

His father lost all his wealth and had to start from next to nothing, which makes this dynastic rise even more fascinating and compelling.

Does "raping and pillaging" mean having a successful businesses such as 'Shinawatra Silk'?

Or do you have evidence that scholars such as Pasuk and Baker have missed when researching the Shinawatra clan history that points to pre-Thaksin era corruption in the family businesses?

You could have added, batting for the other side as well.

"they are afraid that their opponents will win the political game."

If someone remember what he told about his, when they took him once drunk will be afraid what happens if they win that game.

What? Speaking of boozing...

"What? Speaking of boozing..."

Is that my que to post?

Just another political hit piece from The Nation. The FOX News of Thailand

The mouthpiece for the Democrats, Army Generals and the "invisible hand."

The minority.

I'm astounded at the comments above.

People read The Nation and think they are informed?

Why, are you impressed with the boy?

Think about his achievements and what he has done for Thailand, well, at least on his little Facebook page.

Or is Alzheimer's setting in?

So from now on we can assume all your comments are based on a balanced assessment of the news from many different sources including both English & Thai language. We are all entitled to opinions, no matter where our information comes from. BTW The Nation was just reporting what was posted on FB, it was not an opinion piece.

[UncleJ]

Picking on the rich kid.

his Facebook comments. BFD

This is news or is part of the anti Thaksin crap the this unethical "newspaper" puts out on a daily basis?

You know, like FOX does for the Republicans in the USA.

24 hours spewing hate against the opposition.

[whybother]

Thaksin's family made their fortune through tax farming.

Tax Farming

a system for collecting taxes and other state revenues from the population. Under this system, the state transfers the right of collection to private individuals called tax farmers in exchange for a certain fee. Tax farmers accumulated great wealth since the taxes and charges they collected exceeded by two or three times the amount deposited in the treasury.

That sounds like raping and pillaging.

THEN they started their silk business.

Thaksin's father was a politician, with the family being one the richest in Chiang Mai when Thaksin was born. Thaksin then married into another rich Chiang Mai family.

Pasuk and Baker had this to say about Thaksin:

While in reality Thaksin was born with a whole set of silver spoons in his mouth, the story presents him as a poor lad from the backwoods who makes good by hard work and entrepreneurial daring.

After losing a lot of money on several business ventures, Thaksin made money on a computer deal with the police (which he also happened to be), and then made his fortune with a monopoly telecom deal given to him by one of his mates.

The family may not have been corrupt (although being rich in Thailand usually goes along with corruption), but Thaksin has certainly made up for it.

The Nation prints nonsence.

Their mission is to promote the opposition. That's not obvious?

There is lots of valuable information that is not able to be published in Thailand.

Can't even mention the sources here.

Is Thaksins side banning the books?

I guess you support book banning and propaganda disguised as news.

"Panthongtae" what sort of a stupid name is that anyway?

Oh, really. So just how many generations have been "raping and pillaging the people"?

Was it the 1st Generation that was in the cattlebusiness? Or the 2nd Generation who moved over to the Silk business in the 30's and changed their family name to Shinawatra. Or was it Lert from the 3rd generation who diversified into orchards, theatre and petrol stations and then become an MP in Chiang Mai. Or was it the 4th Generation, when the evil one known as Thaksin arose?

You must have the details of all this "raping and pillaging" that was going on, surely, why not share?

The first generation were "tax farmers". See my post above.

Princess Jantip Na Chiangmai, Thaksin's grandmother does not have a usual cattle ranchers name now does she?
