Taksins Interview

[Squigy]

Since when can a conivcted criminal in Thailand hold high office..From a policeman to a failed convicted PM.. Thailand does not want that.

The police being the biggest legal gang in Thailand founded on corruption.. they all (well just about all) are in the same boat.

well, it is affecting my TV watching habits;

my favourite TV programmes are being interrupted by Ministers, Army, Police Force giving speeches;

ooops not speeches, but explanations on why some people are dead

[Squigy]

BTW how is the fishing ? I might join you...

Hey Squigy, second to none, this morning from 5.50 am until 8 caught about 30 mainly Talapia up to about a pound with a few small silver fish, of course being i,m English i give em a kiss and throw them back to fight another day, but i do take an occasional one for my wife , great sport and for me it what makes me tick, yeah i suppose i,ve 2 obsessions in life # 1 is to see Thaksin put were he belongs, the slammer,the second love in my life is of course fishing,LOL.

[Squigy]

Fishing is wonderful to get away from the wife...where do you go?

NAB

The vid is common knowledge and 100% sure the reference to 500 baht was about the 500 baht /month = senior citizen policy.
However he looked like he had made a mistake in the way it would sound. This is why there were references to his drinking too much before his video calls

I can aggree with the drinking, he had to have had a few to slip up lke that.

your "100% sure" is a little shakey, lets see why?

"if you all say "Taksin do it""

"I am ready"

"i would sacrifice myself at the age of 60"

"dont line up to pick up 500 baht"

Embarraseed pause

"everyone"

Now where is that talking about "the 500 baht /month = senior citizen policy"?

If you are correct, he went from telling everyone he is ready to come back to help, he will do it even though he is 60 years old, then .......talks about a 500 / month seriour citizen policy?

nice try, no cigar.

What NAB, no answer to this, or is thr reason for no answer is that you cant dispute it?

In A well stocked lake 30 minutes from Prakonchai in Buriram province, by the way the guy who owns it is a Thai but for some reason do,s not allow Thai,s to fish it, cos they was taking fish away under their motorcycle seats and telling the old guy they had caught nothing, now i,ve got the lake to myself.

Here is official transcript of latest Thaksin interview with Aljazeera.

Again he refuses to directly answer questions regarding how his many actions may be inciting violence on the streets of Bangkok. After reviewing other recent interviews on CNN, BBC, etc., & now this one, seems to be pattern of making himself seem guilty by avoiding to address the issues raised. Perhaps he should shut-up for a while (or preferably forever) to come up with a more credible communication strategy. His comments & the situation on the ground do not match. He certainly does not seem to be "Walking the Talk".

[Squigy]

Maybe we should all meet up at the Lake.. (No more than 5 ppl under the SOE) and chew over the issues whilst enjoying ourselves...

Cheers
