Publicus Posted May 23, 2014 Share Posted May 23, 2014 (edited) They've got her RT @OiChutima: Former PM Yingluck Shinawatra arrived to report as ordered at the Army Club in Bangkok. Nobody's got anybody. She walked in of her own accord. The former prime minister is a courageous person to walk in to the Lion's Den as she has, rather than to flee Thailand. We'll see the civility of the Boyz in Uniform now as the whole world watches. So are the reds and all of Thailand watching and taking notes. You wish you had the balls Yingluck has, and she has more balls than her brother ever had. It is also clear what course of action her brother has advised. Carry on.

She turned up of her own free will - it's not as if they captured her. If you're a Brit I suspect you would have been a Sun reader. "She turned up of her own free will" Yes but she will have to stay longer than she did at the NACC don't you think. Any one know what sort of overnight accommodation Fab4's VIP guests will be getting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KarenBravo Posted May 23, 2014 Share Posted May 23, 2014 I've always found Dutch uncles to be overbearing and bloated in their erroneous notions of self-importance and self-supposed savvy. I recall New York was originally New Amsterdam until a British Naval fleet suddenly arrived one fine and fortuitous day (Jan Kees). Much to the chagrin of many Dutch uncles, the Brits and the locals together dismantled the larger territory of New Netherlands into the new colonies, now states, of New York State, New Jersey, Connecticut, Delaware. Sorry 'bout that. (Not really ) It was the Dutch who had bought Manhattan island from the unsuspecting natives for $26.00. The Brits and the locals took a lesson from that. It's a lesson Yankees have carried forward to the present wherever money, fairness, values are in play. The island of Manhattan was swapped for the island of Run in the Spice Islands. It wasn't taken by the British. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Piichai Posted May 23, 2014 Share Posted May 23, 2014 Military had shown a sign of change over the past 7 months. I truly thought the military would provide the security, force political parties to negotiate, find a happy medium set of reforms, and quickly implement an election. Unfortunately, the Army chose the path of old, outdated methods to deal with its people. I guess you missed it when Prayuth held meetings for two days, and Thaksin forbid the PTP & UDD to compromise. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
inutil Posted May 23, 2014 Share Posted May 23, 2014 And the army were so ready to immediately head back into their barracks had they only agreed to being completely overthrown. Its not a coup! its not a coup! Look! they VOLUNTEERED to give up civil power, we're just filling in the space with a new guy selected by us! But its not a coup!

Taksin was NOT A billionaire until after he entered politics, even police corruption does not get them into that league. Are you really that dumb? Are YOU that dumb? Did I say anything about him being a "billionaire" before entering politics? No! But YOUR statement of "..he was a lowly police officer stealing tea money before" is rather ignorant of the facts. Thaksin, while in the police, started his telecom business, making him a millionaire, and if I remember correctly, he left the police as a Lt Col. Hardly a "lowly police officer". You know, Google and Wikipedia are wonderful sources of information. You might try using them sometime to get the FACTUAL TRUTH before running your mouth about things for which you are illinformed (read: IGNORANT) . But then again, far too often people such as yourself really hate for the truth and actually facts to get in the way of your personal rant. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Check the link. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thaksin_Shinawatra Apology accepted. Thaksin was a self made man. He was a billionaire. Thailand's economy grew at the fastest pace in 25 yrs. His only error was in supporting the more poor majority party in Thailand and trying to uplift the poorer communities in Thailand. Of course, the minority Dems/PDRC/Elite/Military hate this fact. The only illegal act that Thaksin is even accused/found guilty of is a relatively small land deal that his wife signed for. They bid on a land and used his wife's name. This was deemed a conflict of interest. So lets not be misleading. He has never been found to be stealing money from the Thai People. It was a simply conflict of interest. He failed to report that his wife was the buyer of the land. If anyone has any other illegal acts that he has been charged/found guilty of, please show me. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
