What more does govt want from my family? Thaksin’s son asks

By The Nation

 

 

Panthongtae Shinawatra, the son of fugitive former premier Thaksin, on Thursday bemoaned the attempts being made by the junta to collect back taxes from his father over the controversial sale of Shin Corp in 2006.

 

Last Tuesday, the Prayut Cabinet asked the Revenue Department to seek back taxes, which could amount to Bt16 billion, from Thaksin .

 

“Oak” Panthongtae Shinawatra posted on his Facebook that the case had already ended eight years ago and the court had ruled that his father had not sold the shares to him and his sister Pinthongta and that Thaksin remained the owner of the shares. 

 

He said Bt46 billion worth of his father’s assets had already been confiscated. That amount was enough to compensate for his guilt, according to the court ruling, he said. 

 

“What more the government wants from my family?” he asked.

 

“In this government’s point of view, does reconciliation mean a complete destruction of its opponents and stomp them to death so only their associates are left and conflicts will disappear?” he asked.

 

“Or does it [reconciliation] mean giving justice to all groups so everybody can live peacefully together?”

Err......Yes

[samsensam]

 

return and pay his debt to society?

 

which, by the way, if he had done in the first place and not scurried off to avoid taking responsibility for his actions he would now be a free man living comfortably in his home land.

Well I don't care if you disagree with me liking Thaksin but I bet you Thais will always remember him for introducing 30 baht health coverage program.

"Look, this is a glass half empty or glass half full kind of thing.

The system is certainly not without flaws and problems, but it is also certainly a vast improvement over the past situation" end quot

He isn't a fugitive. You can't be a fugitive if you are not being chased. For the millionth time.

Yes but I didn't want to argue with him simply because I'm a fool , then I will eventually drag him down to my level and beat him with my experience. 

[wakeupplease]

For heavens sake you know what they want and that is to eradicate the name for ever as so scared,

 

Look back in history and see the frauds by the PMs in green then you may see the light, but I doubt it as propaganda rules here and those who have very little upstairs believe every word, So much empty space sat on shoulders in this neck of the woods, too many trees I guess

I think that may be a bit above the heads of some on here..

A troll post has been removed. 

 

Referring to Thailand or the government as a dictatorship, military dictatorship or other such terms will be removed.

The billions that were stolen

[Kasset Tak]

Hmm, an easy answer. Thaksin pays his taxes and he does his 2 years in prison and if there is anything else after that then they can start complaining!

He is a fugitive, running from the law so he should have forfeited all chances for retrial and any belongings still in his name in Thailand should be seized and frankly they should send out a seizure order of all his assets world wide with Interpol just like US and other countries do... even for pirating like with Kim Dotcom!

[rkidlad]

I despise the junta, but Thaksin should be in jail and made to pay all the money he stole from his 'beloved people' back. 

 

Saying that, he's not the only politician or important person who's stolen/stealing from the country they pretend to love. They should all be in jail and made penniless.

99.9% of sheep who expressed an opinion in the latest XXXX poll said, as long as Article 44 remains in force, I will support the Junta.

 

This poll excludes 14 year olds carrying posters, as at the present they are unavailable for comment.

You took the words right out of my mouth. That is exactly what they want.

For those who just like to jump into the swimming pool of posting here is something you don't know about him;
Thaksin was the first democratically elected prime minister to serve a full term in office before being re-elected in a 2005 landslide victory.   A former telecommunications billionaire, the business tycoon-turned-politician drew his support from Thailand's rural poor, with his populist healthcare programmes and assistance for farmers schemes, winning him great levels of support.

I have to say I felt safer in this neck of the woods then, more than now, thats why I got out after seeing the light, best thing I ever did, seem to be happy every day now, wonderful this freedom thing is, makes you feel warm and cosy even if its cold outside

Kindly explain what a fugitive from justice is

 

also

 

He went to a country that does not have any extradition agreements with Thailand so he is in effect "A Fugitive"

 

But hey call it whatever you like, one thing is for sure - he will never set foot in Thailand again
