Yingluck to NCPO: I'll be back

[BigBadGeordie]

And I had £5,000 @ 200/1 at William Hill that she would return on time, bugger!

[Local Drunk]

Take this for what it is......I spoke to someone in Thai Gov't, no names, and they said that a deal is being brokered by Thaksin

and junta for his return in 5 or less years. Yingluck will be admitted back and a whitewash of the rice scheme will happen. Just stuff

I've heard from a reliable source. Don't ask.

 

The military doesn't need either of them back in to this country... They hold all the cards and there's no need to negotiate anything. 

[iReason]

"If found guilty by the court, Ms. Yingluck could face a maximum ... fine of 20,000 baht."

 

Just a suggestion; perhaps increase current fines for such offenses?

 

 

 

[goldmonky]

have her assets been frozen yet ? or were they in the luggage she took with her ? LOL.

[BillyBobThai]

If found guilty by the court, Ms. Yingluck could face a maximum prison term of 10 years and a fine of 20,000 baht.

 

She has shoes worth more than that.

I don't know whether I can call it funny, as it might be the insiduous work of a virus of some kind attacking the memory of most of the TV contributors writing about this one... Just a single question as a test: is anyone in his right mind honestly believing that, when and if, Mrs/Ms Yingluck would indeed come back to Thailand on Sunday, she would have made the decision on her own and by herself? It's only Pinocchio (whose nickname might that have been among Bkk students...?), in the fairy tale, you know, who was 'transmutated' from a puppet to become alive as a little boy (nothing about his nose here, please), but, hello, wake up, it's not for real, it's a story, for the kids, do you understand? Snap, snap! OK guys, you're awake now? And do you now also have a clue about who would be masterminding all of such a 'strategic operation', down to the tiniest details (hint: he just became 65)? Allright then, let's just move on and wait for the sun to go down next Sunday! Thank you!

(Once a ..., always a ...,  )

A lot of egg on faces if she does?

 

That is a lot of posters I'll admit.   But what about you, your thoughts ??   did you expect her to return ?? forget the others for once.

 

Anyone with some brain was/is confident that she comes back, you don't think so ?

NCPO: Yingluck May Extend Her Stay Abroad
 

By Khaosod Eng. 

 

 

BANGKOK - Former Prime Minister Yingluck Shinawatra can ask the military junta for a permission to extend her stay abroad, a top military officer said.
 

 

 

And the military expects to be taken serious on their plans by the outside world ?

I suggest you cut down on the caffeine.

 

To be a little unkind I have the impression you believe you are making a perceptive observation when it is in fact just a common place.When does any very senior person take a decision (say hypothetically to launch a military coup) all by him or herself?

Wrote it before, but I'm not carrying 2kg of stars, stripes and medals, I'm not even Thai actually: just make it easy for yourself, guys, just change the fines from the Baht money unit to the Baht gold weight unit, end of problem, now we speak about a serious financial deterrent, no inflation either, and it would also allow the Judges to 'tailor' their sentences to the offense.

[Old Man River]

I think she will be back, but flight cases will be packed to do the midnight flit if need be.

Near all her stuff she took out will not return to home soil.------Another large stack of luggage will be getting ready for the next trip.... but it is my forward thought.

Did you mean luggage or "luggage"?

Does Thailand have a current government? Maybe you should ask but  don't think too hard about it.

Sorry for you, I had hoped the guys taking the time to read me would have some sense of humour. Anything to say about the 'common place' I wrote itself, a 'perceptive' personal comment maybe, instead of attempting to create a, quite 'dangerous', diversion? It's about the idol-of-the-north, here, you know, so please, focus on the topic, the topic!

of course she will be back... and at the next election get will back also her job of PM

Prayuth who granted permission for Yingluck to travel abroad a few days prior to the National Anti-corruptions Commission's ruling to file a lawsuits against her on the rice pledging scheme corruption case.

AFTER COUP
Yingluck 'will return on Sunday' as scheduled, will fight charges
The Nation 

 

BANGKOK: -- FORMER PREMIER Yingluck Shinawatra will "definitely" return from an overseas trip as scheduled on Sunday to face her court cases, sources said yesterday.

A source from the National Council for Peace and Order (NCPO) said Yingluck had informally contacted the junta about keeping to her itinerary.

This matches information from a Pheu Thai Party source, who is close to Yingluck, that she would indeed come back by Sunday.

Yingluck is visiting France, the UK and the US since July 23 after getting permission from the NCPO to travel abroad and is scheduled to return on Sunday.

The NCPO source said the junta would not interfere in any of Yingluck's legal cases. The responsible agencies would be allowed to process them. No agency would be set up to follow up on them like the Assets Examination Committee that was formed following the 2006 military coup to investigate corruption cases related to the Thaksin Shinawatra government.

Lt-General Kampanart Ruddit, director of the Reconciliation for Reform Centre, said Yingluck could delay her return if necessary. The NCPO has always been flexible with the people it has summoned. They could explain the reason and would be allowed to report later, he said.

NCPO chief General Prayuth Chan-ocha did not stop Yingluck from leaving the country, as she had not been convicted of any crime. She had also showed her travel plans and air tickets as proof of her sincerity, he said.

Meanwhile, another national security source said that even if Yingluck changes her mind and does not return to Thailand, it would have no effect on the NCPO's work and foreign countries already understand the NCPO.

The NCPO allowed Yingluck to travel as it wanted the country to go towards reconciliation. It also believed Yingluck would not choose the same path as her fugitive brother Thaksin."If Yingluck decides to seek asylum in the UK, it's her choice. The NCPO is unlikely to be affected. Foreign countries now understand the roles of the NCPO in solving the problems. They know that the NCPO is not doing this to seek benefits as some politicians have accused," he said.

NACC findings challenged

Yingluck's attorney, Norawit Lalaeng, filed a petition for a reinvestigation to the Office of the Attorney-General, claiming the probe by the National Anti-Corruption Commission (NACC) was incomplete.

The NACC on Tuesday submitted its case report to pubic prosecutors and recommended her indictment in Criminal Court for dereliction of duty, resulting in a Bt500-billion loss to the state from the rice-pledging scheme. If the state attorneys find the evidence compelling, the case will be forwarded to the Supreme Court's Criminal Division for Political Office Holders within 30 days.

Yingluck also faces an impeachment motion over the huge damage caused by the rice scheme.

Norawit, her attorney, said the NACC's decision was based on incomplete information derived from its rushed investigation, which declined to hear the testimonies of important witnesses.

There are also many outstanding issues that are disputable and inconclusive, for example, the rice depreciation rate used to calculate the loss and the quantity of the remaining rice stocks, he said.

It's amusing to watch people praise a person for doing something they're supposed to do: "She's so brave" etc.," Watch Chris Rock's "Blacks vs NIggas" stand up routine and you'll get what I mean.  I wish I got praised every time I paid my electricity bill - perhaps the ladies at the counter could roll out the red carpet and cheer every time I entered the office.

[shirtless]

Yingluck yells loudly she will be back then whispers in 10 years.

[SteveFong]

Yingluck,

 

you can stay with me in the USA,

 

no need to return to Thailand,

 

I have a room set up for you now, with servants

 

give me a call and I will pick you up at the aiport

[GAZZPA]

A lot of egg on faces if she does?

Brain hasn't kicked in yet, it's still early morning.

[GAZZPA]

If she does come back and face her accusers, she'll gain a moral standing that her brother and all the other festering cowards will never, ever achieve.

Erm, not really. You are setting the standards very low, her brother is/was a coward. YL coming back is just what someone should do when facing charges, no moral standing really.

[ginjag]

Yingluck,

Why didn't you ask on facebook ??    looking at this post she already has your phone number.  is that JFK--or LA ????

[soalbundy]

I wonder how long before someone does a Seh Deng on her

[mike324]

If found guilty by the court, Ms. Yingluck could face a maximum prison term of 10 years and a fine of 20,000 baht.

 

She has shoes worth more than that.

 

She will admit guilt so the court will cut her sentence in half to 5 years, she will point out the corrupt millers and what went wrong, the court will give her a suspended 3-4 year sentence as long as she pay her enormous 20,000 baht fine. While the country remains in debt hundreds of billions baht from the rice scheme.

[Krataiboy]

A dilemma faces the generals if Yingluck keeps her promise to return.

 

Pursuing the alleged misdeeds of Thailand's first-ever woman Prime Minister through the courts would certainly help divert public attention away from some of the unpopular moves now being made by the generals (not least their failure to give women more than a token role on the NLA and other un-elected bodies running the country}.

 

On the other hand, putting her on trial might well act as a catalyst for those Red Shirts who - with many of their leaders either detained or exiled - are waiting eagerly in the wings for their chance to spoil the Happiness Show.

[greenchair]

She will come back because she has done nothing wrong. Poor policy decision, yes. Government all over the world do that. They don't put them in prison for it, They vote them out. Not one iota of corruption has been found on her. like her or not. She has stood with honor and poise throughout this time and never shirked her responsibilities. A fine woman and admire her a great deal. Edited August 7, 2014 by greenchair

Did she forget her favourite  hand bag

[Old Man River]

A fine woman and admire her a great deal.

Time will tell, but as it relates to corruption, they don't have to prove that she herself was corrupt, only that corruption existed, she knew about it, knew how to stop it and turned the other way. There are a number of people who were in her government that have cases pending as it relates to corruption in the rice program.

There is a lot yet still not known.
