Thaksin's brother-in-law for Prime Minister?

Surprise, surprise

Thailand's ruling party endorsed the brother-in-law of a controversial former leader on Monday as its nominee to become the next prime minister, paving the way for more strife with anti-government protesters

Thank god they lifted the state of emergency :compress:

I havenтАЩt the foggiest idea of what тАЬHтАЭ posted (guess why), so donтАЩt consider this a response.

All these years I have smiled at futile hopes Thailand will ever be rid of Taksin. He is more durable than Dracula who can, at least, be dispatched by having a wooden stake driven through his heart.

Taksin has an infinite network of relatives to succeed him.

No need to guess - I have those I consider the Board fools on {Ignore}, only fools would have me on {Ignore} :bounce:

This is he - if all goes to plan.

One of the Mem'sahibs from Isaan, incredibly an anti-Thaksinite, has just been telling me how corrupt it all is. Oh, and for the record (I know how deeply disturbing this will be for all those who keep insisting on the need to learn Thai) the conversation was in English

A new face on the tshirt. I think this will all be going on for a very long time.

Yes, I'd say that I'm good at what I do. Mostly because I ENJOY doing it. It helps that it turns me on as well. Also I've tried to get better - ask him what he likes, what I can do better, etc. Then it's practice, practice

Taskin ( may be wrong spelling) was the only one in the recent past has taken the country in the right direction. His socio-economic plans were well suited given the global economy and the country was taking good turn around. However, if those stories were correct, his wealth and it's accumulation is questionalble. Then it is bad. If they can deliver the goods and turn this beautiful country around and give economic properity that's what the poor Thai masses deserve

Taksin's policies were bankrupting the country. He was manipulating the law to enrich himself and his family.

You're wasting your time with steve - his grasp on reality is almost non-existent.

Thanks for your constructive contributions. Let us ignore the loosers
