AlexRich Posted August 28, 2017 Share Posted August 28, 2017 They prefer her to flee rather than be banged up in a Thai prison ... a.democratically elected Prime Minister jailed by a Junta ... creates a Martyr, leads to international condemnation, and would create a build up of unrest that the military would find difficult to suppress. Who let Yingluck go? Mmmm? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cadbury Posted August 28, 2017 Share Posted August 28, 2017 1 hour ago, webfact said: He stressed that it would be “insane” if officers intentionally let her flee. In the years since 2014 there have been plenty of examples of "insanity" demonstrated by Prayut's military government so it would do him good to steer clear of that excuse. However I give him full marks for a five star performance of faux anger and indignation while defending his blameless lacky's and subordinates. A few rhetorical questions to the media were thrown in as well in a pathetic attempt to try to show them up as fools for asking reasonable questions. This man regularly demonstrates he has problems within himself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sjaak327 Posted August 28, 2017 Share Posted August 28, 2017 (edited) I think that in retrospect, things should have been done differently. I mean would a suspended jail sentence not have achieved the same desired result (Yingluck out of the political process). That way the Junta does not have to look completely incompetent for letting her escape. Even THIS they could not get right.

The only information I understand is through the speculations of media. Detailed maps with arrows, maybe this maybe that, by road, by boat, by privi jet????? Who knows? Until some FACTS of YL's whereabouts are specified, we can only yap about it. Even the 'Sydney Morning Herald' has accused her of abandoning her 15yo son. I may well be misinformed, but I have no concrete evidence that LY has even left Thailand. Nor to my knowledge, does anyone. The media is having a field day, as are many tvf posters only to speculate. Personally I really dont gafk, I would rather see that nidprick Rbull bought home for a spanking! Elvis has left the building, we think? Unless she soon show up in public, we may never know. Something far worse than a simple escape could also have happened to her.

Suphawadee Posted August 28, 2017 Share Posted August 28, 2017 Sad but true. Once I saw a company profile DVD of Chinese-Thai ran SAHA company Co. Ltd. The CEO had a pieces of wood in left and right hand and said: 'we Chinese Thai think, what can we carve from this piece of wood? Create out of it'. But normal Thais he continued: 'only think how to burn and consume this piece of wood'. It is true, the new middle class quickly uprising with often double income. Until their necks in loans, mortgages and hi-so behaviour. Burning money they did not earn. Financing cars is normal, saving is not. Banks are closing down rapidly on developments in my area. It is like Spain in 2000, the Big Bang implosion will arrive soon. I know women having 3 credit cards but no real income. Poor people upcountry, since 2014 coup they did not see any prospering perspectives. Only a Friday evening Great Pretender show. Often copying Yingluck's plans. The Bangkokian / Hua Hin elite was not happy with the self made Chinese-Thai millionaire Thaksin and this includes his sister. But one has to admit; they are clever aren't they?

webfact Posted August 28, 2017 Author Share Posted August 28, 2017 Prayut annoyed by questions about Yingluck By Chalarntorn Yothasmutra BANGKOK: -- Prime Minister Prayut Chan-o-cha was apparently annoyed when asked by news reporters to comment on allegations that former prime minister Yingluck Shinawatra might have been helped by the National Council for Peace and Order (NCPO) to flee the country. Ms Yingluck did not show up at at the Supreme Court on Friday (Aug 25) when a ruling on the rice-pledging case against her was initially set to be read out. “Who would do that? How could that happen? What made you think like this?” Gen Prayut retorted.
