Popular Post iancnx Posted July 21, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted July 21, 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. To liken a stateswoman like Aung San Suu Kyi to the puppet Yingluck just demonstrates your total lack of knowledge in geo-political matters. Best to say nothing if you are so ill informed! 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yann55 Posted July 21, 2014 Share Posted July 21, 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. You are sooooo right. Personally I always send telegrams to the Kings and Queens around the world to tell them I will totally understand if they're too busy to attend my birthday, and I'm pleased to say they consistently acknowledge my messages by not showing up. How considerate and royal indeed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pick one. How about Oscar Shinawatra or Thaksin Wilde? On the subject of who 'owns' a joke ... George Bernard Shaw once made a very funny comment in some social gathering, and Oscar Wilde was within earshot. Oscar Wilde : That is extremely funny, I wish I'd said that ! George B. Shaw : Oh but you will, Oscar, you will ! So... If Noël Coward 'stole' one of Wilde's bons mots, it's just kind of karma material ... and I bet the great O.W. wouldn't mind anyway.

Bernard Flint 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. So you are saying the junta are making deals with a known fugitive criminal?

I feel sad for them as they clearly have little else to do other than wish misery on people they don't know (but think they do) and feel some strange need to say so publicly here. Are you hoping your views will some how make you popular on TV? Just what is your motivation for spewing out such hatred? Get a life guys I feel the same way. Such anger and judgement from a bunch of hateful people. I feel like I'm tuned into Fox News in the U. S. The rhetoric sounds very nasty, biased, and divisive. All is not as it seems and I would caution against taking sides in this unfortunate THAI situation. Most of us are here as guests and, I believe, as guests we should try to keep a positive attitude and not promote more of the same anger and accusations that have been a major part of the dialogue over the past couple of years. Seek the truth, if you can find the time between negative posts. I think you'll be more than a bit surprised.

I will grant you may have just got off the bannana boat in Thailand, and are not fully aware of what he and his family have been upto over so many years, but yes one hope the Junta does seek the true and it reveals the extent what a lying cheating family the shins are.. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
webfact Posted July 21, 2014 Share Posted July 21, 2014 Red Politicians Barred From Thaksin's Birthday Bash By Khaosod English BANGKOK — Former Prime Minister Thaksin Shinawatra has reportedly told political aides to stay away from his 64th birthday party, which is expected to take place in France on 26 July. Sources inside the Thaksin-allied Pheu Thai Party say the former leader has made it clear that Redshirt leaders and Pheu Thai politicians are not welcome to the birthday party in Paris; Mr. Thaksin has reportedly requested that only family members attend the celebration."He did not want any trouble and did not want [Redshirt politicians] to draw attention from the NCPO," a source explained, referring to the military junta's National Council for Peace and Order, which overthrew the government allied to Mr. Thaksin on 22 May.Mr. Thaksin's birthday has traditionally been marked with much fanfare by Redshirt supporters, who organised religious ceremonies at local temples on his behalf, and Pheu Thai politicians, who flew to attend his birthday party in whichever country he was residing in at the time.The former leader was deposed in a 2006 military coup and has been living in a self-imposed exile since 2009 to avoid corruption convictions. Nevertheless, Mr. Thaksin retained much influence over the successive governments led by his trusted proxies, including his younger sister Former Prime Minister Yingluck Shinawatra.Yingluck free to leaveThe military junta recently approved Ms. Yingluck's request to travel abroad, presumably to attend her brother's birthday party this Saturday.However, there are speculations that Ms. Yingluck intends to leave Thailand for good — following her brother's footsteps — after the National Anti-Corruption Commission (NACC) found her guilty of negligence in regards to her government’s controversial rice-pledging scheme last week.The NACC claims that corruption associated with the program has cost the state more than 500 billion baht in damages and that Ms. Yingluck did nothing to stop the malfeasance. The case will now be sent to the Office of the Attorney-General, who will pursue charges under Article 157 of the Criminal Codes against Ms. Yingluck in Criminal Court. If convicted, Ms. Yingluck could face a maximum prison term of 10 years and a fine of 20,000 baht.A recent opinion survey reveals that a majority of Thais believe Ms. Yingluck will not return from her trip to Europe, although Ms. Yingluck insisted that she would be back to fight her case in court.Sources close to Ms. Yingluck say that the former Prime Minister and her 13-year-old son are due to leave Thailand at 1 am on 23 July. Her itinerary includes a visit to Germany, Belgium, France, the United Kingdom, and the United States, according to the sources.Some of Ms. Yingluck's critics have criticised the NCPO for allowing her to leave while she faces a trial in Thailand.But Gen. Teeradech Meepian, former deputy of the now-dissolved Senate, defended the decision and said the NCPO is certain Ms. Yingluck is merely going on a vacation trip."Both the NCPO and the NACC have considered [Ms. Yingluck's permission to travel] to be appropriate," Gen. Teeradeth said, "I believe it's not a plan to free the tiger into the forest as many people have criticised or speculated."Source: http://en.khaosod.co.th/detail.php?newsid=1405928797 -- Khaosod English 2014-07-21 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Get a life guys Tell you what somo, if you can explain Thaksin's motivation for blatantly breaking so many laws, conducting underhanded and dodgy deals, trying to lie his way out of it, making a mockery of Thai law, absconding from so many criminal charges, and then sicking his red dogs onto his own country, even though he was so wealthy and powerful, then I will tell you my motivation for hating this hi-so scumbag so much.
