Baerboxer Posted February 13, 2015 Share Posted February 13, 2015 Just when it looked as though he might be leaning towards a bit of tact and diplomacy in the wake of the Japan visit, he shoots himself in the foot with this nonsense. Whoever is providing his PR advice should sacked, pronto. This is an AFP release. They have been somewhat partisan and a tad supportive of the Shins in the past.

Baerboxer Posted February 13, 2015 Share Posted February 13, 2015 Today he will be quoted as saying that he was only joking and it was just his grest sense of humor that he was showing to the people. The thing was it actually was kinda a joke .. Yingluck's people complained that they got stopped at a check point (and got checked) and they also complained that there were army and police guards at here house .. the comment was in reference to the fact that on TV straight after the complaint she was videoed by the press eating noodles ... hence the army don't need to keep an eye on her the press is already following her every move! Which she of course has absolutely no problem with! Yingluck's lawyers claimed she was under house arrest and then claimed the police and army were following her. Wonder if they see the irony. All part of the show, more like a pantomime. that she Shins like to create. Poor Amply Rich billionaire Yingluck - don't they know who she is? That she's above the law? Totally innocent of everything for ever? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Manbing Posted February 13, 2015 Share Posted February 13, 2015 Whilst on the face of it, many of the comments seem justified. I would like to suggest a different opinion. Given the recent posturing of the Shins and the red shirts, perhaps this is a reminder that if you mess with the bull, you get the horns. The rice scam legal process is heating up. The belief that the Ex-PM would never be held responsible for abuse of power under her government is seemingly unfounded. However naive and inexperienced she was. What are the Shins doing in the background to protect Yingsy? I would guess they are not sitting around with their thumbs stuck somewhere unsavory. This statement is a clear public and overtly tactless confirmation that the government have a very precious card in their hand. If the Shins continue to instigate civil disorder they will take severe action. If nothing else, this current PM has tried hard to address a large insidious and seemingly intractable problem of corruption in Thailand. Reconciliation was on the table for all parties last year. Some parties have accepted that, pulled back and given the regime time to work. Other parties are clearly unwilling to sit back and reconcile. It seems clear that the threats made last year, which could have been avoided, are now being enacted. The more combative people get, the more reactive the government gets. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

soalbundy Posted February 13, 2015 Share Posted February 13, 2015 Classy stuff. What kind of leader says such a thing, either in private or worse, publicly?

Been There Posted February 13, 2015 Share Posted February 13, 2015 from just a couple weeks ago, ... "Today, have I ever restricted anyone's rights? Have I ever done that?" asked Gen. Prayuth, It looks like the General is "outing" himself... Toppled Thai PM 'can't eat noodles' without our say: junta chief Yes but he is not restricting her movements. Just watching them. So I guess he isn't "outing" himself after all. daft lad ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
casualbiker Posted February 13, 2015 Share Posted February 13, 2015 Casualbiker. Ask any Thai why tuey were never colonized and they will probably tell you because of the strength of the people. I tend not to take much of what Thai's say very seriously considering they are brought up to lie and cheat. Bit that's my opinion and I'm entitled to it as you are your. Btw Happy Valentine's weekend everybody. I ask different Thais that question about colonization and yes a few will answer like that. Others will tell me about the clever king who realised that France and Britain didn't really like each other so played them off against each other!

aimbc Posted February 13, 2015 Share Posted February 13, 2015 I think YS should speak up for her self and appear in person when she is called upon to show her sincerity, instead of opting to have her statement made through her lawyers. This shows she is 100% in control of herself. Answer some of the hard questions with some thoughtful analysis rather than just spout out there was nothing wrong with the policies. Like she couldn't stop the rice policy because it would be against the law. No such irresponsible policy was already designed to be a criminal intent to buy votes and to siphon money out of, all by hiding behind the poor. If how to win election by seeing who can give out the most money, Thailand would be in a debt that it can never dig it self out of. And who would end up flipping the bill? Surely not Thaksin, he managed to avoid a lot of taxes. As far as her innocence is concern. She is innocent only because of her ignorance to her role as a prime minister or as the chairperson. She is only innocent because her brother and party made her the scape goat for all their ill intentions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surely they can catch him or make a deal with the countries he resides in to capture him for them. They got Bin laden. They are still trying to work out where Dubai actually is.
