eddie61 Posted November 30, 2014 Share Posted November 30, 2014 (edited) Not a chance, but no doubt plenty here will believe its all about cleaning up corruption. Its cleaning up corruption and neutering the Shins 2 noble causes. Now if the Shins were to release what they know about corruption of the army we might be getting somewhere. I hate corruption so its good he goes down and would applaud corrupt guys being taken down on the side that i support too.Too bad this will probably not happen. The side that is in power usually goes after those that are corrupt on the other side. But at least some get caught. "There is none so blind as those who will not see" Agree with your sentiment on corruption, but the real story is written between the lines!! I think everything about this whole story must be read between the lines. I think the shins in this case are but a small part of the story Edited November 30, 2014 by eddie61 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peecee Posted November 30, 2014 Share Posted November 30, 2014 For those who still think this is a crackdown on corruption consider the original source of the news. Don't you think the NCPO and the PM would want to take credit for this if it was primarily about removing corruption? I have done a little independent reading myself. It is one of those occasions I am grateful my passport has 'United Kingdom' on the cover. To be able to give the incumbents of No 10 the boot every now and then (even if the other lot leave a lot to be desired) does give me some satisfaction. An option the Thai's have never really had.

Jasun Posted November 30, 2014 Share Posted November 30, 2014 Sincerely hoping that what he is wearing is not his own, and that the orange Thai prison uniform comes in a lovely gradient with a palm tree pattern. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dogmatix Posted December 1, 2014 Share Posted December 1, 2014 Pongpat looks like he might have been roughed up. I guess he knew what to expect. Must be an interesting new cell mate for the inmates in the remand prison. A chance for a reunion with former customers perhaps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robby nz Posted December 1, 2014 Share Posted December 1, 2014 Such a cancer in Thailand corruption from the very top to the lowest of the low, and as for locking up a frail weak sick old thief it would be better if he was sent to Singapore or Dubai to recuperate for a few years before spending the next 60 years behind bars in Thailand the metal ones that is. A frail sick old thief??? Is that your take on this character who has accumulated billions ripping off others and the country. For a start he is not old, not even to police retirement age. He would have to be the epitome of a bully using his position in the police for crime and corruption. How weak and sick would he have been last month sitting high and mighty giving orders for all the corrupt and violent actions we now see being uncovered. He may well be feeling sick now contemplating his future for with a bit of luck he will never again get the opportunity of a repeat performance. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slapout Posted December 1, 2014 Share Posted December 1, 2014 He was probably undecided which direction to go, become a monk, become sick and spend time in hospital, leave the country, plastic surgery, or just go into hiding. But up jumped the devil and I doubt that purgatory was on offer. nor a sucide watch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ratcatcher Posted December 1, 2014 Share Posted December 1, 2014 He may be feeling extremely sick soon since he has involved The Family in his misdeeds. Shame on him and all his accomplices. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spidermike007 Posted December 2, 2014 Share Posted December 2, 2014 The fact that bail was denied is a very positive step. It may be an indication that they have found an honest judge who refuses to budge. That would be a huge step in the right direction. We are all hoping that this punk is tried and sentenced for a very long time. The fact that he would misuse the name of the Royal Family is a travesty. One can only hope he gets heavily punished for this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CarlTyson Posted December 3, 2014 Share Posted December 3, 2014 There was a monk in the papers recently that had a Lear Jet and was depositing 20 million dollars a day into various accounts. What are the chances he was laundering money for this guy? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
