Yingluck calls for practical and acceptable charter

[LannaGuy]

Thailand's first female PM should be justifiably proud and continues to display calmness and dignity amidst the 'noise' of the baying elite pack and, moreover, she is loved by millions of Thais

What exactly has she to be proud of?

Being a puppet proxy for her criminal brother?

Being removed by a court for abusing her power?

Being caught lying on many occasions?

Being caught laughing after pretending to cry when giving a speech?

Being out of the country more than any other PM?

Being absent from parliament more than any other PM?

Being unable to debate with other political leaders?

Who says she's loved by millions? Maybe your wishful thinking. She's loved as long as brother's money keeps flowing.

Do you really still believe she was actually the PM or even the DM?

It must be nice living in Shinaworld as opposed to reality.

foolish post

being voted by the electorate and if you don't fear she is loved by millions then support ELECTIONS but, of course, you DO fear this above all else and so you loudly support a Military Junta who's whole edifice is imposed by guns

Calling posters foolish is against forum rules. Ah, but as a Shin supporter you won't bother with rules, or even common courtesy will you. Those that resort to such tactics simply demonstrate their inability to debate in an adult fashion.

I can understand that. Must be hard to try and present how Yingluck could possibly feel proud of her time in office; or even defend her position as the "real" PM.

But do try. Come on, tell us all what she should be proud of. And confirm, that you really do believe she was the PM, made all her own decisions and was not simply Thaksin's little puppet.

I don't think she's loved by millions - I think many who put their faith in her were bitterly disappointed and many are sick of the Shin lies and corruption.

I don't support the Junta. But nor do I accept the blatant nonsense trotted out by the Shin PR machine.

So come on then - please answer

1. Was Yingluck really the PM and in total control?
2. What can she be proud of?
3. Is Thaksin totally innocent and never ever done anything wrong, as he claimed on CNN?

ah lack of engaging brain yet again? nothing unexpected there

when did i call the poster "foolish" or was it the POST

read again and as for me being a 'Shin' supporter you are 100% wrong and seek to obfuscate AGAIN and history will show her in a much kinder light than your Junta Leader

You really do seem to have a problem with word definitions.

You seem to think your in some sort of position to judge others - foolish, a disgrace, or comment on their posts rather than actually answering them. Seems your a bit rattled - things not going the Shin way? Looking a bit grim for Yingluck at the first day of her court appearance? Amnesty for the boss slipping away?

Perhaps if Thaksin came back and faced those 15 + court cases we might get to see some evidence of corruption. Like in the recent Krungthai Bank case where he's number 1 defendant?

anyone who does not support the Junta is................ a 'Shin supporter'

bet you love the arrest of Pravit Rojanaphruk, the nation Journalist for 'attitude adjustment' is he a 'Shin Supporter' too????????? foolish POST

Besides the negative criticism so far here on TV Forum , former Prime Minister Yingluck is just as entitled to put forward her and those views by her P.T. Party as anybody else and if the critic' s of the former P.M. here in the Forum want to ,through their Thai partners or friends , they can offer up constructive views also , for a better constitution for Thailand.

She can say what she likes but she is so dumb that she doesn't realise that no one would accept anything she says due to her track record

The very same party that subsequently gained 265 seats out of 500 with her as the number one on the party list. JAG is quite right. The current PM on the other hand was chosen by the NLA, whose members in turn were appointed by.. the PM and his NCPO buddies.

Nobody disputes that PTP were elected. But Yingluck, or any PM for that matter is not chosen by the electorate but by MP's.

Yingluck was the number 1 party list candidate for PTP so no one voted for her as an individual but voted for the party in the expectation she would be chosen if they won. The did and she was. That was a reasonable expectation seeing as her brother own that political party. At no time was she the PTP leader btw.

Ignoring factual detail is a habit of those who support the Shins. Like ignoring the fact she was removed by a court for abuse of power; or trying to pretend that and all other charges against her and her family are all political.

It has nothing to do with ignorning factual detail, the details are that she received 299 votes to become the PM of Thailand, the people that voted for her, were either voted in via the constituency or via the party list, it doesn't get any more direct than that to be honest, and was the perferred system of the day.

Do you honestly believe that she wouldn't have become the PM IF the electorate would have to cast a third vote for the PM directly ?

In any case, the remark "The last person that the Thai electorate decided should be prime minister." is pretty factual, if the thai electorate wanted another person as PM, they would not have voted for PT in the numbers they did.

And I do not support the Shinawatras at all, but get a bit sick and tired of people trying to explain away their electoral success with irrelevant remarks, certainly in line with the current bunch of "leaders" who have not received any electoral support at all.
