The message here is: I have been traveling soooo much that my passport is full now. I can just renew it and travel more. I am welcome everywhere. I don't need my Thai passport. You can't stop me.

Clearly a message for his gullible followers. To show them that what the army did is bad because on the other-side of the world you can just buy another passport.

"na nana nah nah - You can't stop me ! You cancelled my Thai passports but other countries don't care that I'm a convicted criminal on the run so I can go ANYWHERE! na nana nah nah"

"Paethongtarn said his father will be visiting Germany"

Transgender?

[alocacoc]

I guess his new passport contains 48 pages like mine. Good decision Khun Thaksin.

You are also on the run?

[alocacoc]

No, but i travel a lot. So, a 48 page passport is more convenient.

[arthurboy]

And, of course, this is all completely true, and Thaksin is really in Montenegro. Because it's on Facebook.

It's got absolutely nothing to do with someone having a laugh at the expense of the junta. Or nothing to do with someone saying it doesn't matter one jot if you take away my Thai passports.

Or whatever.

And there was me thinking his daughter's nick name was 'Ming-ing' ...

Edit - Actually, I'm being unfair - having just checked Google, she's really rather pretty - shame about her old man though ...

Transgender?

It's sometimes confusing as to who is who. Here's some facts you really don't need to know.

Panthongtae aka "Oak" the only son.. 2/12/1979

Pinthongta (Kunakornwong) aka "Aim" the older daughter 17/4/1982

Paethongtarn aka "Ink" the younger daughter 21/8/1986 U.S. citizen

I think it's the "thongs" that confuse people.

[krisb]

So what? Should start a shinawatra sub forum. Mushrooms and Montenegro.

[theguyfromanotherforum]

Yeah... I'm from one of those ex-Yugo republics and I can vouch that Montenegro passport is completely useless.

Why doesn't he just buy an investor visa to Canada or something.

[krisb]

Well Jingthing gave me a like, hopefully means he's not to angry at me which is great.

[trogers]

How much larger can a passport be, A4 size?

[worgeordie]

It will be a lot more expensive than a Thai Passport,more pages so he is expecting

not to be coming home anytime soon.

Thaksin Derangement Syndrome continues.

Where is Thaksin today? How many pages did he get added to his passport? Inquiring minds want to know all the details. And Thai PBS is happy to oblige.

[alex88]

Montenegro passport is useless? It's in the EU so you can go anywhere you want in Europe. With his money where else would you need to go?

[alex88]

If I had thaksin's money and could go wherever I want in Europe I'd feel pretty free

[wow64]

This guy is funny. Hahahaha

Show your passport up your junta he is saying.

No, Montenegro is not a member of the EU.

[alex88]

But Montenegro is in the schengen zone right? So you can go to France, Germany, Italy, Switzerland... Right?

[alocacoc]

No, it's not a Schengen Member.

But;

Western Balkan states

Citizens of Albania, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Macedonia, Montenegro, and Serbia can enter the Schengen Area without a visa. On 30 November 2009, the EU Council of Ministers for Interior and Justice abolished visa requirements for citizens of the Republic of Macedonia, Montenegro, and Serbia,^[193] while on 8 November 2010 it did the same for Albania and Bosnia and Herzegovina.^[194] The former took effect on 19 December 2009,^[152] while the latter on 15 December 2010.^[195]

Since when?

Not part of the Schengen area, not EU member

Edited June 6, 2015 by Fab5BKK

[alex88]

Actually I see it's not in schengen either. However I looked it up and it says you can go visa free anywhere in Europe. Can also go to Caribbean and parts of South America plus Cambodia and Laos. Where else would you want to go?

Don't be so sure.
