Deputy Interior Minister Chuchart Hansawat has denied any knowledge about a ministry committee's assertion that Deputy Prime Minister and Interior Minister Yongyuth Wichaidit is qualified for absolution under the 2007 Exoneration Act.

Mr Chuchart, in his capacity as chairman of the Ministry's Civil Service Committee, said the 2007 Exoneration Act had not been raised for discussion during a recent meeting of the committee.

"The committee did not consider the 2007 Act [in connection with Mr Yongyuth's status]. This story is unfounded. I am not aware of it," he said. "What I know is that it [the committee] has expelled a former [interior] permanent secretary. "

The longer that Thaksin is out of the country the less control he has over his allies and supporters and at some point they may decide that they no longer need him and will go their own way.
That will be an interesting thing to see.

It is no wonder that Thaksin wants to reduce the powers of the courts and to change the law about parties being dissolved when their leaders are found to be corrupt. He can't seem to run a government without there being massive corruption. Doesn't that say something about the party's leader, which the people should be concerned about? Would you choose a corrupt person to run your company?
