Popular Post rametindallas Posted July 20, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted July 20, 2014 I would be curious to see a list of Thaksin's family, the ones whose travel is not restricted, who will be attending. I would also like to know how many 'close' friends, and who they are, that will be attending, also. I want to know if Pol. Capt. Chalerm is restricted from traveling abroad and a list of all the people on the 'restricted travel' list. Really, we get such a small view of what is happening in Thailand that all our opinions are based more on 'hunches' of 'feelings' than facts. I want to know if Potjamarn, Thaksin's kids, sister Yaowapan and husband, Dr. Plodprasop, Gen. Yuthasak, and others are restricted or attending. Has anyone seen this reported? Seems like it would be worth reporting if it hasn't been. The only persons, that I know for sure, who will be at Thaksin's birthday party are Dr. Thaksin, himself, Yingluck, and Yingluck's young son. Is Yingluck's common-law husband going with her or not? 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pedro01 Posted July 20, 2014 Share Posted July 20, 2014 (edited) Could be a face save for the red leaders that are in Thailand for the general wont let them go anyway.My thought exactly.Telling a bunch of people that cannot go to his birthday party to errrr... Not go to his birthday party. Guess if that makes him feel like he is still in control...

than Posted July 20, 2014 Share Posted July 20, 2014 French authorities have asked Taksin to not make politic comment on Thailand on their soil...... In 2010 the French order him to shut is mouth until he leave France....... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wordchild Posted July 20, 2014 Share Posted July 20, 2014 Well, I think something completely obvious might happen. Yingluck will come back, face the music she orchestrated, and become the Thai Aung San Suu Kyi in prison...you can't kill a martyr....and if she died in prison -- WORSE. The fat lady is not singing yet. No kidding. Expect it. If Yingluck ever dreamed of being the Aung San Suu Kyi of Thailand, perhaps on her return (?) the junta could oblige by placing her under house arrest at her Lad Phrao house and tell her to emerge 20 years later with a flower in her hair.Of course, 20 years without internet, Facebook, Skype or phones.I can see it now. and no dave lee travis on the bbc world service anymore!

northernjohn Posted July 20, 2014 Share Posted July 20, 2014 lets be honest he couldnt give a fidge about these lowly yobs..they were only his foot soldiers .do you think he wants loso,s hanging around in paris..he has dumped them big style now..games over.. Or he could be sulking now that he is out on his ear and doesn't want to listen to any phony so sorry. He has lost face and prefers to hide.

northernjohn Posted July 20, 2014 Share Posted July 20, 2014 Actually this could have been a deal brokered between the Junta and thaksin.... Don't invite PTP or any Reds Shirts and we will let your sister leave the country. So you are saying the junta are making deals with a known fugitive criminal? (insert many more descriptive nasty words here) The democratically elected government seem to have done that so why not. To be honest there are so any possibilities but at the moment we don't really know. It's possible Thaksin really is worried it would upset the junta and he still has many family members here some of whom would have a lot of inside information which he'd rather they didn't tell. I had to laugh at him making a deal with the government until I read your idea. It has a lot of merit in it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
northernjohn Posted July 20, 2014 Share Posted July 20, 2014 Well saying publicly he does not want them to go saves losing face when he is Billy No Mates at his own party with just him and Yingluck playing musical chairs. Do people even celebrate birthdays anymore after about 10 years old? Only those who have to try to prove they are something special by throwing lavish doo's for photo op's, an attention getting thing by the insecure. You two obviously don't have any kids.

webfact Posted July 20, 2014 Share Posted July 20, 2014 Prominent Thaksin backers told not to attend his partyOLAN LERTRUDTANADUMRONGKULKHANITTHA THEPPHAJORNTHE NATION BANGKOK: -- FUGITIVE ex-prime minister Thaksin Shinawatra advised red shirt leaders and former Pheu Thai Party MPs not to attend his 65th birthday celebration in Paris on Saturday, saying he did not want them to be subjected to junta scrutiny. A party source said Thaksin said he wanted to mark the occasion with close family members only.Thaksin's younger sisters Yaowapa Wongsawat, and Yingluck are expected to attend the party, along with Khunying Potjaman Na Pombejra, his ex-wife. Yingluck's chance of attending the event got a boost when she got a green light from the junta to leave the country.The National Anti-Corruption Commission (NACC) has requested that the Office of the Attorney-General indict her for dereliction of duty after it ruled that she had failed to stop huge losses in the rice-pledging scheme.Anti-corruption networks have thrown their weight behind a |proposal to issue a law that would prevent people being investigated for corruption from escaping prosecution by leaving the country, but others fear it may violate international human rights laws.National Anti-Corruption Commissioner Vicha Mahakun proposed the idea at a reform panel at Thammasat University.Mana Nimimongkol, director of the Anti Corruption Network, sat on the reform panel and expressed confidence the law would help prevent corrupt officials from escaping justice.The proposal follows Yingluck's request to the National Council for Peace and Order that she be allowed to take her son on a European trip from yesterday until August 10.Yingluck's request sparked hot debate when the NACC subsequently requested that the Office of the Attorney-General indict her.The NCPO initially said she could leave the country because she had co-operated with it by refraining from activities she was barred from doing.However, after the NACC ruled that she must be indicted for her role in the rice-pledging scheme, the NCPO said the decision on whether she could leave the country would rest with the Attorney General and the courts.There are concerns Yingluck would follow in the footsteps of Thaksin, who fled the country to avoid a two-year jail term for abuse of power relating to an illegal land purchase.National Human Rights Commission member Dr Nirand Pitakwatchara said several politicians had escaped prosecution by fleeing the country.Human rights activist Somchai Homlaor believed the proposed ban would create more adverse impacts than advantages because in 1997 the country signed International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights agreements in which it gave an undertaking that citizens had the right to relocate and leave the country."Even though the 2007 Constitution has been cancelled, the country is bound to comply with the ICCPR regulations," he said.He said the decision on who could leave the country should rest with the courts and not the NACC.Source: http://www.nationmultimedia.com/politics/Prominent-Thaksin-backers-told-not-to-attend-his-p-30239021.html-- The Nation 2014-07-21 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EricBerg Posted July 21, 2014 Share Posted July 21, 2014 Actually this could have been a deal brokered between the Junta and thaksin.... Don't invite PTP or any Reds Shirts and we will let your sister leave the country. Also, had they all got together, the media would have been all over it, and the Junta would have likely rejected all applications to travel seeing as almost everyone in that clan need to seek permission from the Junta to leave. I think that's too much conspiracy theory. The guy at 65 knows he lost his powergame to return to Thailand as the long lost champion of the masses. All his strategies failed. Even the terror thing and burning BKK threat. Now he seems to be taking his big losses. He will continue living the rich life and he will be missing Thailand till his last breath. I cannot imagine he wil be a happy person, despite his billions. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I cannot imagine he wil be a happy person, despite his billions. I'd bet it was a deal worked out with the junta. Makes perfect sense. Pretty much what they've been doing lately anyway with the various red shirt leaders and politicians. Thaksin will never give up. It's all about "face". He's just laying low until a new government is elected. Then he'll be back full force. Causing as much mayhem as he can. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I cannot imagine he wil be a happy person, despite his billions. I'm not so sure, IIRC there were strong rumours a year-or-so-ago that he was talking to the military, via back-channels ? On a separate angle, wonder why he's holding the party in Paris, rather than where his home is in Dubai ? Could those rumours, of the welcome-mat being rolled-up, have had some substance ? Lastly I wonder how many red-shirt leaders would have gone, could low numbers have been part of the problem, a ticket to Paris costs more than to Singapore or Hong Kong? Whatever, the former-PM has now reached normal retirement-age, time for him to spend more time with his family & looking after his other business interests, rather than trying to regain his former job ?
