" #Thaksin -- a #convict who was #bedridden for 6 months -- seems to be in rude health; there are no traces whatsoever to suggest that, about 3 weeks ago, he was declared to be a gravely #sickman who could hardly help himself .. He was seen briskly walking unaided under the scorching sun .. defeated is the #justice system that has become a #farce in the eyes of average people .. He needs to walk away gracefully while there are people who still love & admire him" #Thailand

Thaksin doing better than he should be

As old saying goes; a picture is worth a thousand words, and one good picture tells the whole story and chain of events.

"Thaksin, then #primeminister, quickly branded the robbers "small-time crooks", which can't have improved things. If he had been more prudent, the #KrueSe #mosque & #TakBai #massacres in April 2004 & October of the same year, in which 32 & 85 #Thai #Muslims died, respectively, might have played out differently or even been avoided. Although he did not directly gave orders for the #military #crackdowns in those cases, #Thaksin, as head of the #government, must bear some #responsibility" #Thailand
