BREAKING NEWS Thai Court Orders Ex-PM Yingluck to Pay 10 Billion Baht in Rice Scheme
You are of course right: "On Monday, 23 January 2006, three days after new Thai Telecommunication Act (2006) passed on Friday, 20 January, his family sold all stake in Shin Corporation, a leading communication company in Thailand, to Temasek Holdings with tax liability exemption. The families of Thaksin and his wife netted about 73 billion baht (about US$1.88 billion) tax-free from the buyout, using a regulation that individuals (as opposed to corporations) who sell shares on the stock exchange pay no capital gains tax." But before that: Sunthorn Kongsompong, the general that ousted democratically elected PM Chatchai Chunhawan in the 1991 coup handed Thaksin not just a concession, but a monopoly on satellite communications. He made his billions by using his wife's family patronage network to gain a monopoly in providing computer services to the police (while he was still a policeman), then by getting a cell phone monopoy from a military junta, and then the satellite monopoly. Old fashioned cronysm, not by some fabled business genious and very much by seeking and paying back favours. Sunthon had 150 million dollars to his name when he died, not bad for someone on a general's salary. -

Relocating to Chiang Mai, worried about burning season
True, I track locations in Yunnan as well as I lived there for a while. Marginally better. Anyone who has visited Singapore has experienced Indonesia's burning pollution affecting it's neighbor. Other countries are bad yet leadership begins at home. Thailand can do much more. I have spent ~2 months in different Thai locations over the past 2 years. Thailand has much work to do. I did see fire inspectors at a cafe in a remote Nan location with fires burning all around. ? In this case accountability is not there. All along the management chain the mission appears to be failing. Much like road enforcement reducing the perennial road deaths per Capita. But then again I am imposing my view of "a better" condition of life for those whose culture I don't understand. Yup. -
