All they need do now is invite Thaksin's other "friend" Hun Sen and they will constitute a triumvirate of criminals.Perhaps the Burmese regime could offer Thaksin some of the large amount of space in their bizarre Capital to accomodate his Government in exile and visits by red shirt mobs.Hopefully Suu Kyi is keeping away from this get together.

Just about everything Noppadom Pattama said here is(let's put it mildly)untrue,except the availability of rooms on the Thai side. That's a pretty bad score if you ask me.
