Thaksin's Speech at the UDD Rally : Naming Prem : Part 2



Thaksin's Speech at the UDD Rally : Naming Prem : Part 2

On March 27 at 8:30pm, Thaksin spoke, via video link, to the UDD Rally and for
the first time specifically named Prem as the charismatic person/person with
clout outside the constitution. Matichon has three videos of the event
("mtc-flv-window.php-newsid=1238161609.htm" video 1, video 2, and video 3).
Matichon "news_detail.php-newsid=1238161428&grpid=00&catid=00.htm" has basically
a transcript. Part 1 of the translation is
"thaksins-speech-at-udd-rally-naming.html" here. Part 2 is below:

[BP's own translation: [I] ask that why on the night of the coup did Gen. Prem
take Bung [ie Gen. Sonthi] for an audience with HM the King. It is like he is
the head of the coup group. When Surayud was PM, Prem said Gen. Surayud was like
Winston Churchill, who was one good British PM...... when Abhisit [BP Either
Thaksin misspoke or a Matichon error as it is "Prem" who said this as Abhisit
wouldn't be talking about himself!] said that Abhisit was a good person. He was
the head of the Privy Council. Then on March 26, he said he cheered Abhisit. He
was still the head of the Privy Council]

Why I speak is because I love and respect. I have previously prostrated myself
at his feet. He is a puu yai [senior respected figure]. I was a PM from a
younger generation and so respected him, but Pa [meaning father, Prem is
referred to as Father Prem] became involved as politics in his capacity as head
of the Privy Council. I don't want to see. Pa don't do like this. How Pa gets
involved and orders this way and that way in the position of a charismatic
person/person with clout outside the constitution is something whic causes
damage to the country. It means there are double standards. Injustice in society
occurs. Pa shouldn't do this.

In regards to Surayud, he has been "active".He has been wading into things with
the media and dedicated in a number of issues. We need to ask Sergeant Yak [guy
arrested in alleged car bomb incident in August 2006]. When there was a car bomb
attempt at me. He said that if it was not successful there would be a coup and
Surayud would be PM. Then, when Sondhi L in Virginia was in Virginia, Surayud
telephoned him and gave him a TV station as Sondhi was made with me as I didn't
give him one.

When I was PM. There was one Deputy PM. I didn't see clearly. Later, I
discovered that he invited one businessman to become a Minister. Then later,
Gen. Surayud requested that this person become a PM under Section 7. This
fitted.

On the EC, it is the same. [He] requested one EC member and Chamlong Srimuang
went with him. They said he should resign. If not, they would be jailed. He was
afraid. Before he resigned I went to the Privy Council and met Gen. Surayud and
asked him about this. He said he knew nothing about it. In the end, they were
jailed.

BP: This is not a complete translation. Thaksin is someone who talks for a long,
long time. He goes on to talk about corruption in coalition party politics under
Abhisit (10 million Baht an MP) and a number of other topics, but hey the focus
is on Prem so hence didn't blog on the rest.

Commentary and analysis to come in separate posts.
