Rather a lot more than that. I live in Khon Kaen and come to Bangkok once in a blue moon. It happened to be this weekend, and the roads just outside the airport were jam packed. Funnily enough, on the way back to the airport was another jam as a member of the Royal Family was passing and all traffic was stopped for some time on the expressway we were on.

The fact that this many people pitched prove that the reds are just waiting under the bed.

Why go to the Philippines for medical treatment?

To avoid a Lese Majeste charge over a speech in January 2011. The UDD aren't just going to go away.

Terrorist groups with political affiliation rarely "just go way". Like vermin.

Why didn't he chose to stay and fight in court? Oh yes, all the courts, justice system and "establishment" are biased against those freedom fighting democracy loving people's champions from the latest Thakisn owned and controlled political vehicle.

Called Terrorists by those that are in power and Freedom fighters to others

'Freedom fighters', how's that?

And they were there to specifically greet yingluck? Really?

Amazing how many foreigners think they have some kind of in built right to say what other countries laws should be.

Next it will be advocating breaking a law just because they personally don't like it. Of course, they are the arbiter of all that's fair and just. Self appointed of course.

First, I have a strong desire for social justice around the globe and as a human, I have the right to push for the human rights of others.

More to this specific point, this law affects me as an individual and it also directly impacts my family. My kids must understand that they cannot say or do certain things because in Thailand free-thinking and more importantly an honest exchange of ideas is quite literally against the law.

So you might find it amazing that I actually do have a right to say what should be done about LM in Thailand. But if you thought about it a bit longer, then maybe you would not be so surprised to see that it is actually the case.

Your lesson on democracy should have been put in the proper topic, where you defended a Minister of Education who in his new bright education for Thailand quoted a criminal fugitve as part of his philosophy on which the policy was based. It would seem that's the way to go, at least for you.

Now luckily as a human you claim the right to push for other peoples rights as you see them. Democratically of course.

please refer to my previous post.

since when is it your job to tell anyone where they should post? Especially since my post was a reply that - amazingly - did not address you in any way.

Did you really like a post in which a poster told us to skip the politics for a moment and just pay respect to k. Apiwan?

BTW welcome to the democratic world of TVF where every one can reply to every post even if not addressed directly.

So, as I wrote,

"Anyway, we pay respect to k. Apiwan. he was only 65 years of age. I hope his family didn't get upset by being pushed out of the way by those trying to make political coin out of his death."

or as member JOC wrote

"This is about recieving the body of a long time friend and colleague, not about political colours!"

A great loss, he was one of the great leaders who tirelessly led the fight for freedom and democracy. My wife and her family are also attending the funeral rites, I pray the Junta will keep their snouts out of this but highly unlikely RIP Apiwan, the fight will go on.

Apiwan a great leader. How's that?

He's the person who nominated Charupong to be the interior minister in the yingluck gov't. Charupong now also absconded abroad in relation to several criminal charges for illegal activities, and LM.

Yep no doubt apiwan the great leader.

How can that be, she is hated by the great majority of Thais.

I know it is true because I read it on Thai Visa!

Member JOC will be disappointed no one seems to heed his advise

""This is about recieving the body of a long time friend and colleague, not about political colours!""

in the UK for the last 40 or so years the British army and equipment has been used in a civil environment to support the police

there are some very stupid people posting utter nonsense on TVF that really have no clue - or they have sinister motives

poll after poll says the people like the current situation and are more than happy with the current government - if anything they are not doing enough to rid this country of those that want to live beyond the law

The only way I would believe that the redshirt leaders have a just cause is if they proved beyond any doubt that they are poor people acting for the poor, but that is not the case as we all know - power greed and money is what drives evil men - unfortunately Thailand seems to excel

The true hub of Thaialnd

[alanferdi]

Jatuporn assured the gathering and funeral rites would be non-political and we all know what a fine, truthful and upstanding pillar of society he is.

Does anyone really believe with so many reds and PTP together there will not be whispering about forbidden topics ?

Mind you it's probably the lesser of two evils considering what might have happened has the govt said no reception committee and no funeral rites .

In times like this... silence is gold!

Reflect and learn - THird party mourning!

Remember and grieve - First and second party Mourning

Rememberance - Family and Friends.

TRUTH LIES IN THE FUTURE.... NEVER HAS IT DIED AND NEVER WAS IT BURIED

It's a shame they can not receive the body of their friend without the Army interfering.

yes a crying shame

Perhaps the police and army were there to facilitate the gathering and make sure there was as little disruption to the International airport and it's customers as possible - just a wild guess

That is what the police are for. Not the Army. Army needs to get back to their barracks. So you guess wrong.

No this is a case of the Army, because they control the airport security already for decades.....

So where was the Army when the Yellow shirts took over the airport? In the barracks?

Because traffic never jams up in Bangkok unless there's a multiple indicted red shirt funeral occurring.

This could all be a rouge to smuggle him back into the country

Yet again rubl plugs away his off topic message whilst maintaining innocence with a brief mention of the subject of the thread at the end - even then he manages to accuse others of "making political coin out of his death" whilst doing exactly that himself with his implication.

Hypocrisy, thy name is rubl.

... and by the way ignoring the totally off topic discussion between baerboxer and tbthailand. Plus of course not contribution anything the topic yourself. Not even professing a certain sadness that the funeral rites are so crudely obstructed by having tens of thousands people coming only to greet Ms. Yingluck and ignore the grief the family must feel.

Hypocrisy any one?

As usual, your rematks are quite silly.......it is a rare occasion when the police do what they are supposed to do....hence the presence of the army.
