Yingluck Blames Kowit In Transferring Thawil

Caretaker Prime Minister Yingluck Shinawatra today blamed former police chief Kowit Wattana as a person who transferred the former national security chief to inactive post while she was busy with fighting the great flooding in 2011. :angel:

 

She testified to the Constitutional Court today to defend malfeasance and interference of official work involving the unlawful transfer of Mr Thawil Pliensri from the National Security Council to the prime minister’s office as advisor.

 

If found guilty, she will lose her premiership status and must step down.

 

In defending the transfer, Ms Yingluck said in a 8-point written statement that her premiership and the cabinet status have ended on the day when she dissolved Parliament. Therefore, she argued that her ended status could not be cited again for the Constitutional Court to rule if her status had been ended.

She compared her ended status to a dead person who died of a certain cause and therefore that person could not be revived to die of another cause.

 

She also said she had authority given by the law to transfer Mr Thawil and her act was not an interference as accused by the petitioner.

 

She also said the transfer was not solely decided by her but the entire cabinet and it was not meant to pave the easy for the appointment of Pol Gen Pliewphan Damapong to the Royal Thai Police chief as alleged.

 

The transfer of Pol Gen Vichien Photposri from Royal Thai Police chief to permanent secretary of Transport also was not to open the police chief seat for Pol Gen Pliewphan but merely a routine meeting to endorse the appointment without prior approaches.

 

Yingluck insisted during testifying that no matter the Constitutional Court will rule that her premiership has ended, she and her cabinet which have lost cabinet status after dissolution of parliament will continue to perform duties until a new government is formed under Article 181 of the Constitution.

 

During the testifying, Yingluck repeatedly claimed that the transfer was made by her deputy Pol Gen Kowit Wattana as she had designated him to undertake the job while she was busying herself helping people affected by the great flooding during the period. :applause:

Poor Yingluck had no business being PM, but she couldn't say no to Big Brother. She was hopelessly unqualified, not that most politicians aren't anyway. I feel a bit sorry for her. I suspect that most Thais do, even those who detest her brother.

The TV News at the time of the flood showed the clogged klongs.

 

Doesn't matter what Takky did, the klongs need to be cleaned yearly! Abhole did what he does best...nothing!!!

no need to sorry for her...she walked into this job by herself...or are you suggesting she was 'skyped' into the PM job via dubai?

either way if one cant stand the smell in the bakery time to leave...even if one haven't worked out a proper exit strategy (yet)

:neener:

 

is this then the solution to all current struggles in the loss? well not even close, but its part of the process that could not be avoided assuming still playing by the revised rule book ;)
