appleman_thai Posted May 30, 2014 Share Posted May 30, 2014 This corruption argument has as much weight as vote buying! Name one politician that isn't corrupt. Corruption was alive and well long before Thaksin and will be around for a while more. Why? Cause it's accepted. It's endemic. Nearly everyone in Thailand is involved in it. Who hasn't paid an on the spot fine?! Neither side is innocent. But these one sided and entrenched views don't help anyone. However, at least you had a choice at elections..... And even a voice.

harrry Posted May 30, 2014 Share Posted May 30, 2014 The Shins really are something else. All that money and it's still not enough. Which would logically lead you to believe that she probably purchased the wood legally. Thanks Utley, I needed a good laugh. I guess they will be able to check the VAT records to confirm tax was paid. (or not) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which would logically lead you to believe that she probably purchased the wood legally. You would think so and they can certainly afford it. Then again Chief Shin could afford to pay his taxes, his wife could afford to buy goverrnment land honestly, his sister and her hubby didn't need to go insider trading........... so why would anyone be surprised if another family scally is on the rob again. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree with you Bigbamboo (some name!), it's mind boggling indeed, but come to think of it ... couldn't your phrase 'All that money and it's still not enough' apply to just about every billionaire in the world ? and doesn't the global economic system allow and encourage them all to think and act that way ? the more money you have and the more easily you can make more money... If you're also famous then it's even easier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Before no PTP was caught because they were protected. The protection is gone and now they are caught. Reason that democrats are not caught is not that they are so clean (i do believe in general they are cleaner but certainly there are some crooks there too), but because they have not been in a position to abuse power for a long time. But to be honest its great to see the PTP corruption being tackled because under the previous government it did not happen. They even gave the convicted criminal a passport and tried to whitewash 25.000 corruption cases with the amnesty. It does show that they are quite a bit more corrupt as the democrats who are by no means squeaky clean. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If she did purchase it legally from her nephew then he will have to prove he sourced it legally. My oh my, the plot always thickens and always seem to contain a never ending bevvy from this one family. Unfortunately, you logic is sophistry. Just because she has more than enough money to purchase the wood legally doesn't mean she would or did. BB, that's how the Shins got their money, by not paying for "the wood".

Popular Post mikemac Posted May 30, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted May 30, 2014 All of that aside, Suthep will go down in history as the man who saved Thailand.. Personally , I hope he gets a medal.. Illegal logging is part and parcel of the palm oil business from which Suthep made his fortune. I'm sure there will be no raids on his family though and there are plenty more ''medals'' in store for him. amazing .....the tenuous non logical link you tried to use to turn that round was true Shinawatra class!! Well done a true red shirt ~Thai Visa poster You mean you don't actually have an argument against what I posted so you're going to engage in childish name-calling instead. How about you do a bit of research into the link between illegal logging and the palm oil business and come back with a more adult response. How about you come back and tell us what the hell Suthep and the palm oil business has got to do with this story. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GeorgeO Posted May 30, 2014 Share Posted May 30, 2014 Don't need to say Suthep planted it. Just say it is fake wood, or pretend it didn't happen. Maybe doubt the source or demand written unattainable proof in the form of police reports on TVF until they believe it. Maybe ignore this and google something Suthep or Ahbisit did to defend these actions. Maybe……. Oh, they have a plethitude of excuses. When people say the thaksins are criminals there is a "grain" of truth in that. I am glad all of these Shin's crimes are coming out of the wood work though! They should arrests Thaksins sister for Treezun. I wonder if thaksins son, "Oak", needs to be investigated too? I think the mighty "Oak" (not) has already been cut down to size...! Seriously though, now that politics is probably not on the cards for him, I wonder what his master plan is ...?! Probably already opened up a timber merchant business..!!

Like a baby that loses its first teeth. It is painful, but the end results are a million dollars. I notice a trends here that when I present statements that really dig deep or are an inconvenient truth I am either demonized, belittled, condescended against or ignored (which is what I prefer). I love it. It means I am speaking a truth that you are uncomfortable with. Unless your a time traveler like Fryslan Boppe ( who seems to have travelled back to 2006 since we don't hear from him now) you cannot tell how the good General Preyuth will do. After seeing the violence cease and the farmers paid I am pretty confident things are looking up. At the very least on average 2 people have died and 65 people injured a month in the past 6 months. So far the general has saved 1 life and 30 people from grenade injuries. I will not condescend you. I left that in the play ground in grade 5.

icare999 Posted May 30, 2014 Share Posted May 30, 2014 lock all thieving Taksin clan up for good and well done Suphet without you they would still be bleeding country dry At last get rid of all of them and fanatic red shirt as well - I hope at last poor can find a decent champion who really cares and then while some of hiso wont like it many Thias wont mind paying extra tax if they knew it was helping country and not going into Taksins pocket Their are many here who pay no tax particularly forang owning condos and the only reason tax people dont tax is it would also hurt likes of Takin and other hisos We earn a lot from renting out and wanted to pay tax but could not and even told by tax people why no one else does but if you have apartments and unlike us have a modest rental income (in fact legal allowances would mean very little tax in our case). SO we know many forang who get 100,000 or more rental income net after expenses and many who would be happy to pay but they can't believe it or not. Yes if they have apartment blocks or let to corporates they pay some voluntary tax. I really hope (even though wed pay some) they just look at all condo blocks and anyone with more than 1 condo check and charge tax. That applies to some here who openly ask questions regarding letting condos etc and work permits and hypocritically support Taksin and red 100% theirs a small hope things can get better and fair for all not just people like us who are well off but for poor but if likes of Taksin win forget any change for poor Cone on red shirt and Taksin hypocrites answer or hard luck go home if you dont like it Thialand does not need or want you or your crook heroes and cowardly bullies (red shirts) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

seajae Posted May 30, 2014 Share Posted May 30, 2014 I have a senior police officer near by who has several large dried tree sections hidden under tarps, he has just finished building a new house and his mate is going to be building a new house on the block where these tree sections(about 2 to 3 mtrs long, 1+ mtr diameter) are stashed. Seems like there may well be a lot of ptp/police/reds that could be caught out if they keep following the tip offs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
