But all were possible. It might be related our own problem or related to a smuggling movement," Prayut said when reporters asked him whether the attack was related to Uighur smuggling gang.Prayut said he did not want Thailand to be a transit point of irregular movements of migrants because conflicts could later occur.Prayut added that the mass media should avoid making wild speculation about the case or they could further complicate the investigation.Source: http://www.nationmultimedia.com/breakingnews/Prayut-says-Bangkok-bombing-possibly-related-to-Ui-30267820.html-- The Nation 2015-08-31 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
uty6543 Posted August 31, 2015 Share Posted August 31, 2015 (edited) I don't get it. Why would a people smuggling gang draw attention to themselves by committing such a vile act and bring the weight of the worlds law enforcement agencies against them. Surely if there were problems moving people you would just re-think your method of moving them. Edit. IMO there has to be a better explanation than this one.

rkidlad Posted August 31, 2015 Share Posted August 31, 2015 'Prayut added that the mass media should avoid making wild speculation about the case or they could further complicate the investigation' The police and army are already doing a great job of that.

Thai at Heart Posted August 31, 2015 Share Posted August 31, 2015 It's not about the smuggling it's about the fact that Thailand in its infinite wisdom handed Uighur back to China probably to face a firing squad. It's not about the smuggling ring, but pay back for costing refugee runaways their lives. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The expectation was that Thailand would hand them over to Turkey. These people are fighting the Chinese army. Under international standard behaviour Thailand would hand them to Turkey. Why they didn't was very surprising. The strike back is fairly standard for separatists. If that's what it turns out, it will prove to have been a pathetic decision. They were asked by all their allies not to do it. But they persisted to cozy up to China and thumb their noses at the USA. These Uighur will at least be in labour camps if they haven't been executed.

oldsailor35 Posted August 31, 2015 Share Posted August 31, 2015 (edited) But i thought that they have got the guilty person and ALREADY, and they have paid out the ransome money to the RTP, so why is "Dear leader" still trying to guess who did it ?

Charlie Croker Posted August 31, 2015 Share Posted August 31, 2015 (edited) That's all settled then. Its the smugglers, or maybe not. It might be internal , but could be external. But don't whatever you do speculate or it might cause trouble, or maybe it won't? Just a passing thought, nothing ensures a trouble free smuggling operation like bombing a major city and starting a worldwide terrorist manhunt.

Briggsy Posted August 31, 2015 Share Posted August 31, 2015 I would like to speculate that this is a domestic power struggle and the Uighurs are patsies. Human trafficking in Thailand is managed by the military for profit. So they know who the participants are. Uighurs may have been coerced to get involved but factions in the military call the shots and provide the explosive. Some people in the military don't like Prayut. He is now using an armoured car as he knows the silent counter-coup has begun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wobalt Posted August 31, 2015 Share Posted August 31, 2015 Has anyone ever considered that the explosion at the shrine was not intended but an accidental explosion? The shrine would be the perfect location to deliver such stuff to potential "customers". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spleen Posted August 31, 2015 Share Posted August 31, 2015 To admit it happened because Thailand sent 100+ Uighurs back into the hands of the people the Uighur were fleeing from , would be an admission of a massive error of judgemnt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its more important to the current Thai leader, its under his watch, his decision and his choice to cosy up to China, resulting in the Thai embassy being attacked in Turkey and Thai citizens in Turkey along with Chinese both warned by their respective governments to be extra careful. So Mr P and co were well aware of the reaction of handing the Uigur back to China long before any bomb yet they failed to take security measures in their own country... and thats when people died. How can Thai government can be seen to be anything but the definitive factor behind the bomb going off ? they know this, that is what the covering up is all about. This mess is entirely at the current leaders feet and caused by decisions re China, thats why people have died and thats why the gov is hiding the stark and simple truth. What goes around comes around or karma its about as Buddhist concept as you can get,unsurprisingly Thailand never saw it coming... again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

abhaya Posted September 1, 2015 Share Posted September 1, 2015 All the so called Uighur terrorist attacks in China have been very weird primitive affairs consisting of someone driving cars into crowds or groups of people going crazy in crowded places hacking up folks with knives. The Thai bombing seemed very sophisticated. This could also be a red herring so Prayut can stay in power, because he can always play the "the country needs a strong leader during times of crisis" card or it was set up by the BIB to collect the reward money for doing their job.

abhaya Posted September 1, 2015 Share Posted September 1, 2015 (edited) Conspiracy theory 4 & 5. Prayut set this up so he can stay in power using the usual dictators excuse of the country needs a strong leader during times of crisis and the police did it to collect the reward money.

Halion Posted September 1, 2015 Share Posted September 1, 2015 Perhaps the good general and his police spokesmen could lead the way here and they themselves avoid making remarks of pure speculation.. Throughout this whole issue both the police and the Junta have flip flopped on every single issue with supposition and conjecture. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arrowsdawdle Posted September 1, 2015 Share Posted September 1, 2015 'Prayut added that the mass media should avoid making wild speculation about the case or they could further complicate the investigation' The police and army are already doing a great job of that. Prayut himself appears to be the speculator in chief, using the disinformation of smuggling spin as if conforming with trafficking countermeasures when the Uighurs were clearly pawns deported to China for political arse kissing of China.
