webfact Posted July 15, 2016 Share Posted July 15, 2016 Thais warned: Don't go to Thaksin's birthday party - we might not let you back homeImage ThairathBANGKOK: -- Former prime minister Thaksin Shinawatra has cancelled a lavish birthday bash in Hong Kong after potential guests were warned by the military junta - go to the party and we might not let you back into Thailand.Hundreds of Pheu Thai officials and associates of the former premier were set to attend his 66th birthday celebration, reported Thairath. Flights were booked and big hotels reserved. A previous travel ban had been lifted and the guests were ready to give their leader their blessings in Hong Kong.But word got round through senior Pheu Thai officials that the military were not happy that such a large number of people were going and that it would create political instability especially with the upcoming charter referendum on August 7th. And they intimated that people who went might not be allowed to return to Thailand.Many potential guests started to change their mind prompting Taksin to pull the plug on he party altogether. Instead he will have a small gathering in Beijing for close family members. Source: Thairath -- 2016-07-15 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Confuscious Posted July 15, 2016 Share Posted July 15, 2016 Keep making such statements as "If you go to Thaksin's birthday party, we will not let you come back to Thailand".The ONLY thing that you achieve with spreading such warnings is making Thaksin and PTP stronger.

The ONLY thing that you achieve with spreading such warnings is making Thaksin and PTP stronger. On the other hand, the only reason for the remaining support they still get is the hatred for Thaksin by some people. This forum provides a good example of this phenomenon. They need to maintain a certain level of Thaksin's visibility to go on using him as a bogeyman. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
baboon Posted July 15, 2016 Share Posted July 15, 2016 hey it's easy - the system cancels their passports whilst abroad A passport is not citizenship. Were I a Thai in that position I would simply tell the guy on the desk to go #### himself and keep walking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
baboon Posted July 15, 2016 Share Posted July 15, 2016 Excellent news. Once this arrogant, self-centred, vile, pathetic, inbred scumbag is nailed and brought back to stand trial, then this abortion can throw all the lavish parties he wants in jail. Excellent news! Apart from the fact it isn't going to happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GAZZPA Posted July 15, 2016 Share Posted July 15, 2016 It seems a little petty, even for Thailand. I wouldn't want Cameron or Blair saying who I could visit on holiday. You're right, as always he went to far. Saying that the politicians should not be visiting a former politician and wanted criminal in their home country. They should be supporting the country and respecting the countries laws. So, all the PM had to do was simply say "by visiting this man, you are representing your country abroad and as such it is inappropriate as he is a fugitive, if you decide to do this you are jeopardising your position for behaving inappropriately as a member of the current lending party" Simple as that,, threatening that they cannot even enter their own country is just ridiculous. But like so may issues, no thinking it through. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Strangebrew Posted July 15, 2016 Share Posted July 15, 2016 What strikes me as stupid is this Knucklehead is hiding in plain sight in a country that Thailand is kissing there butt for what? Oh yeah all that extra baht there going to loan Thailand then when they fail to repay take over the country. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
impulse Posted July 15, 2016 Share Posted July 15, 2016 (edited) Can't they see that they're just solidifying people's alliance to Thaksin by making such threats? Who made what threat? Could just as easily been the PTP treasurer didn't want to admit they don't have the funds to sponsor 1,000 followers to HK for a wild shindig, especially with Thai Airlines cutting back on free seats for the well connected. Or a PTP leader just trying to drive another wedge between the good guys and the bad guys.

hawker9000 Posted July 15, 2016 Share Posted July 15, 2016 (edited) hey it's easy - the system cancels their passports whilst abroad What, and try to make them stateless persons?? How does cancelling a passport enable an IO to deny a Thai citizen re-entry to his own country, even if the passport gets confiscated in the process? 'Seems like that would actually precipitate human rights issues. You can cancel the passport, but it's still proof of nationality/citizenship.Something got lost or added in translation here...

Bikoboogie Posted July 15, 2016 Share Posted July 15, 2016 (edited) Are there any official warning issued by the government warning supporters of this, as if there isn't..this could just be a case of someone in the PTP making things up to cause trouble , as the PTP are not beyond lying about things if if forwards their agenda, after all there is the matter of the lies told about the rice scheme..
