Thaksin Loses Thai Passport
Wednesday, April 15th, 2009The government has issued an arrest warrant and revoked the passport of the indicted former premier Thaksin Shinawatra which they can do anytime they determine that someone has damaged the country. With incitement to riot that left two people dead, an annual ASEAN conference in shambles and the loss of a couple billion of tourist dollars they had good reason. But big deal. He is already in exile to avoid a two-year prison sentence for corruption. He doesn’t give a damn about saving democracy….or his passport. He just wants his couple billion back that the country froze and saw a public uprising as his only last best hope. IMHO, of course. He is not done yet. Sad.
