    Bangkok Post : Thaksin: Govt to be a coalition

    Thaksin: Govt to be a coalition.

    The Pheu Thai Party will not form a one-party government even if it has enough votes but will invite other parties to join, former prime minister Thaksin Shinawatra said in an interview with Thai television stations from Dubai on Sunday.

    He said if Pheu Thai was victorious as projected by exit polls, his sister Yingluck Shinawatra would certainly be prime minister.

    "What is more exiting is the voter turnout is high, showing that the Thai people want to see democracy and national reconciliation," Thaksin said.

    The fugitive former prime minister believed talks between parties to form a government had begun, pending official results of the election.

    His advice was for Pheu Thai to first forge national reconciliation, then restore the economy and create good governance in the bureaucracy.

    Thaksin admitted he wanted to return to Thailand as soon as possible but everything must be based on appropriateness.

    He did not want to be a problem but part of the solution to problems.

    Thaksin said as a father he wished to attend his daughter's wedding later this year but if he could not do so his daughter could visit him instead.

    On the amnesty issue, Thaksin said the matter should be carried out by the Truth for Reconciliation Committee chaired by Kanit na Nakorn.

    "The people's decision must be respected, otherwise happiness would never return to the country," he said.

    No, but I can see a few lawsuits and legal decisions being shredded.

    Seems Pheu Thai has as much work to restore voter confidence in the South as Mr Abasit has in the North.

    The political demographic "colours" allocation that is on TV is a light blue and red chevron across the nation. Very slick presentation on Channel 3.

    As to be expected, Chi.
    History controls favoured status, as a rule.

    There are those circles out there that insist change can be brought about through the usual surface mockery of democratic infrastructure and notions. Yet, models seem to remain the same, regardless. Traditional institutions and power elites always have the upper-hand, as is the nature of Thai politics and social order.

    I recall some months ago, one of the more wiser old-hands [less dreamy pie-in-the-sky types] here had suggested a deepened cleanse of the overall corrupt system - from top to bottom. I believe the metaphor, decapitation, was used to insure that other roots would be less likely to grow as off-shoots.

    If an over-haul of the system never has it's place, nothing will change. An eclective process, rebellions, etc. become all rather moot.

    Naturally. Bollocks.
    As opposed to a dreamy state that most prefer to absorb.

    Looks like we are in for a fun year.
    The UK revoked Thaksin's visa so I wonder what he is going to do to us.
    My guess is that the military will be promptly given an enema to remove any chance of a coup.

    It's always been that way in the modern day.
