                             You don't want Laos to interfering your political problems also . As we know you have your own economical problem since former PM Thaksin was out of the office. Thailand owe a lot of money and in debt since the yellow shirt shut down the airport there are less tourists and less income in the Thailand as well.

Cambodia: the dream is a bit far - maybe after the death of Hun Xen. Prime minister Hun Sen is the king of corruption and can be ranked no. 1 in Asia in this particular matter. He sold almost everything in Cambodia. He collects almost all the money in Cambodia. From the corruption for over 3 decades, his own at least 10 billions USD. 

For some reasons, Cambodia's government is also the slave of Vietnam and that's why many Cambodian people hate Vietnam government. But they don't hate Vietnam people. They just hate the communist gov't.

Laos: No sign to be the tiger in the region. Lack of human resource. Corruption is widespread all over the country. The gov't is the Slave of Vietnam. Poor Laos people. The dream is a bit far - maybe hundred years.

Vietnam: Maybe. But wait and see.

Ok Thai boy I know you are here to promote Thailand and no need to accuse Cambodia and you don't like someone else to interfering your country affair. Thaksin is very good PM but was knocked out of the Thailand because he is popular among the poor . He was wrongly accused to corrupt and not loyal to the king and Cambodia asks him to be an economy adviser and the Lao Esan and Lao people like him and you could not stand it and come to Lao web try to insult Laos and Cambodia. And Thai boy , Thailand used to look down and said the same thing to Singaporean that Singapore was nothing but tiny island and swam and the Singaporean people are low class people living live the animal such as 10 to 15 people were living in one room and living in the slum of the sea port. Now look at Singapore today much develop and much richer and more well educated people than Thailand. So Cambodia , Vietnam and Laos are human being such like Singaporean so nothing that is impossible. Don't under estimated the power of the human mind. O K Thai boy. Stop be racist one day you will be regretted.

Hun Sen & Thaksin are the best friend for each other just for one reason is to protect their money. Hun Xen uses Thasin and so does Thaksin. They are both the billionaire. I think you don't know, Hun Xen is even far richer than Thaksin. Go to Cambodia and you will see.

Big of small, the problem in Thailand nowadays also cause from Hun Xen. He gave bad advice to Thaksin to do bad thing for Thailand. The demonstration of the red, I think is somehow the idea of Hun Xen as he used to do the same thing for his own people.

I don't think Thaksin is good economic advisor. He will give advice to corrupt at the advance level, I think. Cambodian people, please stop dreaming of accumulating the benefit from the oil that just discovered. from Thaksin's advice, Hun Xen will get it all for his family.

For Laos, the most laziest country, you are still in asleep. I don't when you can get up.

I tell you the truth. Vietnam is not good like what think. They want to get your countries (Cambodia & Laos). It was the dream of Ho Chi Minh to create the Indochina. Even he died so long time, but the vision is still alive. You know what Indochina mean? It means 3 countries belong to Vietnam.

Maybe you need to wake up from a long dream or otherwise you will become the minority in your own countries.

        Wrongly accused someone without evidences to prove that Thaksin corrupted , today he earns more money than he was Thai PM. Enough Thai boy stop insulting the other . Someone might throw some back to you that you don't like any one to insult your country. You know that Thai economy was worst and Thailand has a lot of debt because of the yellow shirt shut down the airport and force the military over throw Thaksin government. When Thaksin was PM Thailand economy was good and had no debt. For 60 years there ware 16 coups in Thailand . So Thailand is pretending to be democracy country but it is not but dictatorship country. Soon and later the Muslim will called for independent and what next but blood shed in Thailand. Al Qaeda , Malaysia and Indonesia will support the people from the south so you should focus how too deal and to solve your own problem better than insulting your neighbor countries.

For the 4th comment, this low IQ did not even understand where is the word Indochina came from and tried to distort the history. What a laugh, the word INDOCHINA came from the french word INDOCHINE, during the time french colonists occupied the 3 countries there were no Cambodia, Lao, Vietnam but INDOCHINE, go and do more research about history before trying to spread rubbish in here, there were 18 chapters about Ho Chi Minh done by thai and showed on Thai National tv long ago.....American document done by american ' Dien Bien Phu The Legacy' in youtube and you will be wiser......otherwise go and malaka.

         Hey Thai boy or girl what would you get out of this by insulting Laos in Lao web site and what do you want to prove that You are smarter and better person ? There is no point to show off that your country is richer and more developed than Laos and insulting Lao people. As I said why don't you mind your own business . Your country has a lot of problems also. Go to Thai website and discuss your country problem and try to resolve your problems OK Thai boy . Earn to respect your neighbor.

Thaksin is business man ,he will make friend with all neighbor countries and the world community such Laos, Cambodia . Myanmar . Vietnam and Malaysia , Singapore and Indonesia that is how he became successful in marketing . Today it  is 21st century and it is not the time to kill each other any more but to live in peace but some stupid yellow shirt still want war and kill and take neighbor land instead of working together .

 

 

---

Not that I'm either pro or anti Thaksin.  But I still think he shouldn't have align himself with Cambodia.  He should have further consolidate his power base in Thailand as top priority.

He has now given his enemies excuse to stir up the nationalist sentiment.

After oil drilling and stock market open and the Hyundai finish building auto assembly factory , and south Korea finish build electronic assembly as such samsung cell phone and plastic and tire factories and garment factories and agriculture which will produce to rice in about 5 to 10 years. Cambodia will be in their feet that what the yellow shirt in Thailand are afraid of because Thaksin is Cambodia economy adviser.























Cambodia is in progress of developing and soon Cambodia will reach their gaol that is why the yellow shirt in Thailand would like to destroy Cambodia.

Oil can be a true curse for Cambodia, I think. It will not benefit to normal people. With the current corruption situation in Cambodia, for sure the issue will repeat like what happened in Nigeria... Big oil...big money to corrupted leader but none to normal people. People even poorer because of the oil. This is the FACT and it is NO different from Cambodia.

[New tiger economic countries in Asia] What the heck does this mean in English?

You know why?: The answer are: There are many factors that can bring Lao not only out of poverty or under developed but also can bring Laos to be like Simgapore or Dubai.]

Oh! Lord Buddha! Please enlighten me; how the hell in this world of delusion can possibly blind the person to the point of a complete darkness? It is really beyond my mental capacity to comprehend this unthinkable hypothesis and even if a professed astrologer would not dare to predict something like this as well as any professed economists would not have a reasoning process to these comparisons.

I understand your good intention for our motherland but you lack the basic knowledge of Microeconomics. Let us hope for Laos to get out of the category of the most underdeveloped country by 2020 first before stacking up ourselves to Thailand and leave Singapore and Dubai out of this illusion simply they are too far ahead. Our GDP is barely $14 billion dollars primarily composed of agriculture and services and employment still heavy relies on subsistence agriculture indeed. The government would not have much capital investment for the heavy dependency upon foreign aid donors. Don’t get me wrong though. I have read some significant economic progress in Laos recently especially from foreign investment in hydropower, mining and other construction, but these are not guaranteed without further reforms or adaptation of certain selective policies to ensure adequate accommodation to all interest-entrepreneurs such as simplifying investment procedures, allow greater competition among domestic and foreign banking institutions which I am sure Lao PDR is doing that if not already done it.

I am also very pleased to learn that Laos had gain normal trade relations status with the United States that would help reduce its tariffs on its exports. Undeniably, Laos will be economically in a better position 20 years from now and removing itself from poverty is achievable based on its empirical performance for the last 10 years. Yes, we should all be proud of our motherland but let’s not have the premature ejaculation yet. You should know Laos has more room to grow due to its prolonged poverty and the 6% or 7% percent economic growth is not anything near a miracle just like filling water in two buckets one is nearly full and the other is quite empty, so it does not take a brain of rocket scientists to figure out why Laos grow rate is highly than her neighboring Thailand.

BruceLaoMan

I don't believe when they said most Thai people are bad in English language. But when I come here I can see it is true. I wish the admin of this forum erase/delete all posts in Thai language. It makes no sense to let them here. We are from different countries in SEA, English must be mean of our communication. Why this person persist to post in Thai? If you don't know English, simply don't post your bull**** language. It wastes other people's time and energy. Please learn to think about others by using your common sense.

In Cambodia, even the motor-taxi drivers can communicate well in English. If they could visit this site, I bet they would write in English.

So, write in English.

1)  Thaksin is not loyal to the KING. He did a lot of bad things to the KING.  Even A lot of his projects are good, but he did a lot of Corruption too.  This times, he can not go into UK, USA, Japan , China and Europe.  His money in UK has been freezed by the UK government because of hie money laundering.  This proves that he is not a good guy.

2) Even Thailand has an unstable politics, there are still more than 12  millions tourists to Thailand this years.  Moreover, Bangkok and Chiang Mai are still voted to be ones of the most favorite cities in the woorld.

3) Even Cambodia and Laos join WTO and ........   But from this statistics. 
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Corruption_perception_index
it says theat the two countries stil have severe corruption problem.  this situation really hard to be improved.

4) Congratulation for Vietnam to have the factory for Airplane Parts. but thius project can not make Vietnam moredeveloped than Thailand.

Look at the per capita GDP. Thailand per capita GDP is 4 times higher than Vietnam's.  It is really hard for Vietnam to catch up Thailand.  Moreover, Not a university from Vietnam is listed as one of the top 200 best asian university, but Thailand has more than 7 universities in the list.  Moreover, thailand has better health care system, we have 5 hospital in the best 100 Asian hospitals.

5) Look at the international reserve, Thailand has 135 billion US dollars, but Vietnam has only 20 Billion US dollars.  Moreover, this times, the situation in Exchange Rate in Vietnam is really problematic.  Blomberg indicate that there is gonna be the balance of payment crisis in Vietnam soon. then Vietnam need another dong devaluation, then the ability to import capital good from aboard to develop country like metro or subway is less.  Then it 's gonna take more times for vietnam to catch up Thailand.

6) I learn that Cambodian and Laotian like to cheer up Vietnam to beat Thai, because they know that their country, Cambodia and Laos can not compete with Thai in any aspects.  Then the best strategy for Cambodian and Laotian is to support Vietnam to pass Thailand. ...........  that's is so shameful for you guys Laotian and Cambodian.

The UK government has frozen Thaksin's US$4.2 billion assets
.................................................

THE STRAITS TIMES

 

Breaking News  SE Asia
December 26, 2008 Friday  10:58 AM

 

 

 

----------------------------------------

 

 

 

Down to his last US$500m 
Former PM hit by global slowdown, so US$2 billion frozen in Thai banks is now more important 

 

EX-PRIME minister Thaksin Shinawatra was believed to have $5 billion (S$7.2 billion) of overseas assets in nominal value as stock markets were peaking, oil was trading at US$140 a barrel and Middle East real estate was going up every day.
But with the collapse of the global financial markets and the commodity prices, Thaksin's core money is now believed to be worth not more than US$500 million.

 

′By my calculations, the core money is not worth much more than US$500 million at today′s liquidation value, and Thaksin′s capacity to hold on to the debt is diminishing fast, by the day. So, in brief, his net worth has declined from a notional figure of US$5 billion to the present value of US$500 million,′ said the international financier, who asked not to be named.

 

 

 

Much worse, the UK government has frozen about US$4.2 billion in assets believed to belong to ex-prime minister Thaksin shortly after it revoked his and Ms Khunying Potjaman Shinawatra′s visas in November, according to local and international money managers.

 

The UK authorities normally give the ′beneficiary owners′ of the frozen assets six months to step forward to declare ownership. If the authorities are satisfied with the evidence, they release the assets back to the beneficiary owners.

 

 

 

Earlier, Arabian-business.com reported that the UK has frozen US$4 billion of Thaksin′s assets.

 

 

 

′The UK froze his reputed US$4 billion of assets, forcing him to sell Manchester City to Abu Dhabi′s Sheikh Mansour. To add to his troubles, his UK visa was revoked - oh, and his wife divorced him last week,′ the Arabian Business report said.

 

 

 

Yet so far nobody has come out to confirm or deny this report.

 

 

 

Of the US$4.2 billion being frozen by the UK authorities, US$1.4 billion represents Thaksin′s core money, plus US$40 million in futures trading margin, US$300 million in Swiss bank core money excluding margin money and US$300 million core money in Dubai. The rest is debt.

 

 

 

Thaksin′s real problem, however, is to prove that the source of money in the UK and Switzerland is credible, without which a big chunk of his assets will be frozen for quite a while. Having too many offshore companies with bearer shares is not helping matters in an environment where he has been convicted and jumped bail.

 

 

 

′At the moment, the situation is rather complicated for Thaksin because all the frozen assets are under nominee names. He has been using 20 to 25 offshore companies for financial transactions, including two major Swiss banks and three private banks in Geneva,′ said the international money manager, who has followed the Manchester City Football Club deal closely.

 

 

 

Parts of Thaksin′s frozen money also represent margin loans provided by the Swiss banks, which are also trying to sort out the legal problems to get the money back, he added.

 

Other assets are invested in oil, rice and gold futures trading, in new condo buildings in Dubai and other portfolio investments. The total contracts of his oil, rice and gold future trading exceeded US$450 million in face value. They are now at risk of being liquidated because of the adverse market conditions.

 

 

 

′Also, I was told by Adnan Khashoggi′s people in Dubai and Abu Dhabi that the huge investment in new condo buildings in the Gulf is at risk of being wiped out since it was loaded with bank debt. Total outlay is in excess of US$1.2 billion, though the loss (if materialised) will probably be about US$250-US$300 million,′ said the international financier.

 

 

 

Another US$550-million portfolio believed to belong to Thaksin is being managed by the two major Swiss banks and three private banks in Geneva and is also doing badly. Without proper risk-insurance coverage, the value of this portfolio has declined significantly, he added.

 

 

 

He said: ′I believe Thaksin now has only US$500 million left. So the Thai assets are now very critical to him. Khunying Potjaman′s return to Thailand is primarily aimed at protecting this final piece of their assets. Thaksin is also weighing the possibility of returning to Thailand himself to reclaim the Thai assets, which have become very critical to him.′

 

A Thai businessman by the name of ′Phairoj P′ has been acting as a front man on Thaksin′s behalf in making the dubious money transfers into the UK.

 

 

 

′Phairoj was a surrogate in helping Thaksin to acquire the football club. When only 10,000 pounds of (S$21,300) was transferred into Phairoj′s bank account, the UK authorities asked him where the money came from but he could not give a satisfactory answer. That led the UK authorities to mount a series of assets freezes. Phairoj, too, is facing trouble with the UK authorities,′ said a local banker, who asked not to be named.

 

 

 

′But I have not heard anything much beyond that. I only know that he has lots of money overseas.′

 

 

 

The UK authorities started to focus their attention on the high-profile Thaksin when he announced his buy-out of Manchester City in 2007. Since Thaksin was from Thailand and had taken refuge in London after being ousted from office by a military coup in September 2006, his money transferred into the UK should have come from Thai banks or Thai companies.

 

 

 

As it turned out, the UK authorities found out that Thaksin′s money - virtually all under other nominee names - came from offshore companies located in such places as Guernsey or Isle of Man and directly from the Swiss banks. Thaksin altogether invested more than 200 million pounds, including the cost of buying the players, in the football club.

 

That huge investment prompted the UK authorities to launch an investigation into the trail of the money transfers and eventually nail Thaksin and his wife with the revocation of their visas.

 

 

 

Much worse, over the past two years, Thaksin has been actively making business deals that have turned sour to the extent that he is now desperate to reclaim his frozen assets in Thailand.

 

 

 

′Before Thaksin had more money in the overseas than his 76 billion baht frozen in Thailand. He could just easily walk away from his Thai assets. But now most of his overseas investment has been blown away. He has lost his money badly in the futures trading. My good guess is that he has only in the 10 billion baht range left. So he is rather desperate to try to get hold of his frozen assets in Thailand. But that will not be easy now,′ said a local money manager who has extensive experience in international finance.

 

′Thaksin is bound to lose money in his investment because he only looks at the upside gains and never knows when to stop,′ he added.

 

 

 

On Wednesday, Thai Rath, a local mass daily, hinted that Thaksin might decide to fly into Thailand soon in order to salvage his sagging political base, with the defection of Newin Chidchob, the political kingmaker, and the possibility of the breaking apart of the Pheu Thai Party.

 

 

 

Thaksin′s whereabouts has been kept secret. But he is now believed to be operating out of Delhi as his headquarters.

 

 

 

′Interestingly, Thaksin appears to have strong links with India via a powerful agent in Delhi. He has established a base there and, in my view, that connection will prove his strongest international connection. It is close to Thailand, it is where he has the freedom to operate politically, it is a free-wheeling money market/investment climate and I guess no extradition treaty with Thailand,′ the international financier said.

In thailand, people vote to elect the members of the parliament, and the member of the parliament vote to elect the prime minister.  Thaksin was voted by most members of the parliament in his period and so was Abhisit last year.  then I can say that Abhisit took his position of Prime Minister consistently with the consititution.

Accusing Abhisit of being supported by the dictator is unfair.

That was not what you said., member of the parliaments who were elected by the people were over throw and only selected members of parliament who are selected by the dictators voted for Abhisit. Abhisit is puppet who would follow the instruction of the dictator what him to do behind the scene. Thaksin was only truly democracy and was elected prime minister  by the people and he is the only one who  won the poor people heart.
