webfact Posted May 2, 2016 Share Posted May 2, 2016 Yingluck tells Prayut to follow his own advicesBANGKOK: -- Former prime minister Yingluck Shinawatra asked her successor Gen Prayut Chan-o-cha to have patience and open his minds to listen to all criticisms, saying she had faced the same situation and understood how he felt when was criticised. She said as a public figure, she had to stay patient all the time for both positive and negative criticism against her.Writing on her Facebook yesterday, Ms Yingluck recalled the time when Gen Prayut was working with her and advised her that when the country was reeling under national division, enforcing law to dismiss unresponsive officials to government policies or forcing them to follow orders, would only deteriorate the situation.She then reminded Gen Prayut to follow his words, adding that people with different opinions do not mean they would cause divisions in the country.Instead different opinions might help to develop the country, she said.Source: http://englishnews.thaipbs.or.th/content/161820 -- Thai PBS 2016-05-02 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kimamey Posted May 2, 2016 Share Posted May 2, 2016 Too bad she didn't use this logic when she was PM. Instead different opinions might help to develop the country, she said. To be fair to her I think that might have been her only good point. Even during the protests after the failed election she said that the proposals put forward by Abhisit should at least be looked at and discussed to try to find a way forward. Maybe if her advice had been followed thing may have turned out differently but that didn't seem to happen. But then she wasn't in charge was she.

eggers Posted May 2, 2016 Share Posted May 2, 2016 Don't recall the Statements attributed to PM Prayut being publicly reported on at the time. So now Yingluck is commenting on a conversation between her & PM Prayut some time ago, that was a private conversation. As other have observed, obviously the "Puppeteer from Dubai" is sticking his oar in once again, to stir the pot & create dissent. The man is a megalomaniac; time Gov't took a strong stance against Thaksin & have him extradited & jailed as any other common criminal would be.

chainarong Posted May 2, 2016 Share Posted May 2, 2016 I have been waiting for Prayut to be reminded to follow his own advise , he also wasn't to honest when he kept harping on that there wouldn't be a Coup either..........................

How can you and others say The Puppeteer is saying or telling her to speak? That's is one hell of an assumption! What she is saying is very reasonable and probably said 65million times already by Thai people let alone us FOREIGN UPSTARTS! What she is saying nicely is Practice what you preach and Good on her, as she already cannot leave and has attitude adjustment lessons. Someone even if it is her - needs to start standing up or forever and i mean FOREVER hold their piece. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There has been much reported + public interviews given by the Puppeteer to verify his control/ influence over Yingluck & her Gov't, both spoken & body mannerisms. Wouldn't say or suggest if didn't have knowledge of what has occurred. The concern as to what she saying is more to do with context in which Yingluck had conversation with PM Prayut, i.e. originally, was private conversation; not in the public arena ! To now, come out & make public is somewhat questionable, for I'm sure if you had a private conversation, you wouldn't be happy with someone broadcasting it later?? Haven't seen any report suggesting Yingluck has under-gone "Attitude Adjustment"sessions, but more likely such sessions from Bro, than Gov't!!

The man is a megalomaniac; time Gov't took a strong stance against Thaksin & have him extradited & jailed as any other common criminal would be. Extradite him. Well, let us try and imagine the paperwork explaining why they want him arrested and sent to Thailand..... " Dear foreign government, could you please detain one Thaksin Shinawatra, and send him back to us. He used to be the (twice elected) Prime Minister of Thailand. When it looked very much like he would win election a third time we staged a coup and took over. He was convicted of abuse of power (his wife bought a piece of land in a sealed bid auction, and she actually paid over the official valuation to win the auction). Guilty of this heinous crime he left the country. At the subsequent elections his party won, but over a year or so we managed to engineer the dismissal of that government and install one we preferred. At the next election Thaksin's party again won convincingly, and his younger sister became Prime Minister. We obviously couldn't have that, apart from anything else she was a mere woman(!) so we managed to force her dismissal. It took some doing but eventually we managed it. As it looked very much as if she (and Thaksin's party) would win the election which our then constitution required be held, some understanding acquaintances blocked it. Obviously as the countries military we were powerless to step in to ensure that the constitutional democratic process was followed, so we staged another coup. To avoid the embarrassment of breaking the constitution (which we had introduced a few years previously) we tore it up, and now rule by decree. Please ignore reports of people in detention mysteriously contracting sudden fatal blood disorders, or people being prosecuted for "liking" posts on facebook. We certainly would not do a "Benigno Aquino Job" on Thaksin if you send him back to us (not in public anyway). If you want to discuss anything don't hesitate to call. It may take a while before we answer, we're busy tracking down some red plastic bowls we suspect he's been distributing right now, we managed to put a stop to the calenders with his picture on them and jars of jam with his face on them last year but this is proving a bit more difficult!

jesimps Posted May 2, 2016 Share Posted May 2, 2016 Too bad she didn't use this logic when she was PM. Instead different opinions might help to develop the country, she said. To be fair to her I think that might have been her only good point. Even during the protests after the failed election she said that the proposals put forward by Abhisit should at least be looked at and discussed to try to find a way forward. Maybe if her advice had been followed thing may have turned out differently but that didn't seem to happen. But then she wasn't in charge was she. Maybe if she listened to outsiders about the rice scam, or even insiders. Maybe if she listened to others about not trying to push forward the amnesty. Maybe.... She wasn't known for listening to those with opposing views. If I remember correctly, in recent years, some other lot granted themselves amnesty without the parliamentary checks and balances of Yingluck's failed attempt. Any comment you'd like to make on that?

Think it has little to do about what some other country would or wouldn't do, more about what the Puppeteer knows & potential to create problems.
