It's all about: "turning a crisis into an opportunity" http://www.bangkokpo...-to-worry-about Question remains: Will again the Shinawatra clan need to profit from it ?
"Thelatestflooddamagewouldhavebeen one fith ofthecurrent levelhadmyprojectbeenimplementedasplanned" wow and wow again! Wonder how he calculated that and really would love to see his old plan/ideas which were so strange since he was in power
2001 never ever implemented. Only the bad bad "coup" in 2006 prevented him, from implementing it; right!
Wonder since when Thaksin ever thought about any water projects? Can't remember of anything similar ex him!
Any link to any Thaksin water management tries? Or just another blatant lie ex him?
And why is he choosing Korea or China now as a solution and not takes the offered help from the Netherlands
or USA serious? Is it perhaps more easy to make MEGA-PROJECT-commissions more easy with Asian countries?
Also since when is he the water expert? Thought the current gov. was/is setting up a commission for that? And all those Korean or Chinese pumps he promised to buy during these floods? Where are they? And didn't he had already another Chinese solution announced a view weeks before.?Apparently where he knew the exact the price for it? What went wrong in China? Did the commission deal not work, now trying again in Korea?
First royal pardon dished up, then after the righteous Thai folks bashing now change to Plan B, via Chalerm with an "Act of parliament" and now the water god Thaksin soon commanding the new "gov. water commission" how to proceed with the next silly short-minded Thaksin politics and ideas?
Mr. Thaksin please....
"Amending laws to enrich himself firstly, then amend laws to pardon himself! ups...."
Let me get this right:
you (Thaksin) firstly amend laws to get riches for your companies (AIS/SHIN etc.), then you don't confess and "deny any wrong-doings", then you "apparently" retire various times from the political scene, then you let your self-declared clone sister run for PM on your behalf, then you lure the country to vote for your sister, by acting as you will come back soon; to take national interest in your own hands, and tell your fans:
We'll all get rich very soon!
... then you basically more or less ignore the whole floods in your own beloved country, but before you plan to return, you ask someone most respected in our country, to give you amnesty or pardon for something you've denied doing in the 1st place by amending again yourself (always via proxies of course) the laws?
And now you can't wait to get your hands on the coming "World Banks Loan, foreign aid money and Budget 2012"?
For any MEGA-Project which will make you and your cronies even more healthy? Why are you always lying to us and telling you are doing things for Thailand?
You think we are so stupid and blind?
OMG/OMB ..Mr. Thaksin! Where are you heading for?
Where will this lead too Dr. Thaksin? More division and street problems/protests in TH perhaps? Is this a good PR for yourself and Thailand?
What are you trying to achieve Mr. Thaksin? Thailand really would be better off without you, believe me/us!
Let's try to tackle this claim serious. Anyone knows when the Chao Phraya river tides actually are (low and high)?
...passing by the river date, might post some photos later
typical post-active Thai mentality mixed with Thaksin clan mentality / Low IQ tactics. Why not plan for once a bit ahead for next year? Each year the same silly story, with Thai companies already having their donation bags with photo-op and logo on the bag prepared, for the poor float victims photos adds/op outside the flooded city.
Despite living here in the capital, one day I wish Bangkok would be hit so hard, that the snobs and politicians in the city finally wake up and move their asses to get finally a decent water management going for this country.
Think ahead for once and not each time wait until the people are deep sunk in this yearly water mess.
Also the priority of this current gov. seems strange. Meetings in Cambodia to play football and to listen to Thaksin talk, going so speedy for car- (more pollution) and house- buying schemes with sales commission corruption; trying to implement silly populist ideas (to be sure to get voted for next time), instead of really planning for once ahead for the country, which is sinking deeper and deeper into corruption and low-education man-made problems.
