    PT runs the current government. It is normal that every nominee for cabinet ministerial post is a friend or relative or supporter of Thaksin. Envy is also a normal reaction from Thaksin haters.

    "Jatuporn Prompan for the posts of Social Development and Human Security miniister or Labour minister"
    According to his experience, Jatuporn should get the Ministry of Tourism (Red Villages as new amazing destination)or the Ministry of Commerce (promotion and export of Red products).

    "Chaturon Chaisaeng for the education portfolio"
    What did Taksin do about Education during 6 years of ruling ? NOTHING... He open only the Shinawatra University for the rich, that all... So please no former TRT MP for the Ministry of Education !!!

    This situation goes from bad to worse.It just so happens that a public servant has been caught with his pants down going to see the fugitive Mr T and not apprehending him now gets a plush job in the government. Another Muppet or puppet make your own mind up.Even the government supporters must be cringing at this blatant abuse of power.Do they think he is capable of the job because the excuses he made about his meeting with Mt T and doing nothing to try and apprehend a convicted man would belittle a child inelegance.

    "Pol Gen Priewpan for the Deputy Prime Minister's post"
    Why to bring another policeman (the other is Chalerm)? Does Mrs PM need to two bodyguards to protect her ?

    "Yaowapa Wongsawan for an important cabinet post"
    The man of Dubai doesn't care about qualification, he wants only to reinforce the Shinawatra web !

    Yongyuth had not resigned on the 20th, he was still wiggling and squiggling with the clemency issue. Even with Noppadon controlling this PR exercise they needed at least a day or two to organize themselves. What a load of buffalo droppings. The only thing certain about this poll is who issued it.

    BTW : Jautporn has just been found guilty as a felon , if Yongyuth is cast out so should he be ditched.
