"Army chief Sonthi Boonyaratkalin is considering reviewing and
possibly cancelling a contract ... if the city-state fails
to cooperate on the issue of ousted prime minister..."
So, what are the Military rulers in Bangkok implying? That we
are not 'cooperating' with
them over sidelining Thaksin? or we should totally bar Thaksin from
visiting?Hello?
WHY should we be
drag into this Thai INTERNAL AFFAIRS?
WHY should we be
cohoots with them over THEIR botched attempt to silence
Thaksin?
We DID NOT invite
Thaksin, he came to Singapore on his own initiative!
We DID NOT
interview Thaksin, CNN did!
Thaksin DID NOT
break any Singapore laws, why should we barred him?
Thaksin IS NOT
wanted by Interpol, we have NO reason to bar him entering.
Thaksin is NO
Terrorist, he is NOT on the watchlist here!
If the Military rulers have NO acknowledge of
international protocol or any knowledged of how to rule the
country, perhaps THEY should restrict themselves to their sphere
where they (& any other solders alike) ARE
SUPPOSED to do - protect the Thai border and ensuring the
lives of Thais are safe from bombs! 
Perhaps if Gen Sonthi & his men were to stay out of politics
and concentrate their focus and energy towards the restive South,
they may even keep the southern separatists in check!
''Although Singapore is not our enemy, we are economic rivals.
They could be informed of secrets in the army and in the economic
sector.'"..
OH PLEASE! You are NOT the 1st nor the last ASEAN leader to say
that! EVERYONE knows that each country is competing with each other
and no one need to be reminded! Does he expect the Thai people to
believe that the new airport is not to compete with Changi?
So naive!
The Thaksin government also allowed Singapore to lease part of
Wing 23 air base in Udon Thani for military flight training.
Btw, remember the F-16A/Bs that we gave the RTAF FOC? Perhaps
they should dump them and put them to scrap now...perhaps we have
some listening/tracking devices on them that we can listen to their
'military secrets' when they overfly Thailand!
Thailand had never before resorted to such retaliation, which
showed that Asean members were unable to settle disputes through
dialogue...
I ALWAYS believe that the ASEAN org is CRAP! It can't even put
its house in order and is toothless over another pariah ASEAN
member.
Hmmm.....perhaps Gen Sonthi should cancel its alliance and
terminate its yearly military exercise with the US and protest it
over to The White House as CNN (being a US company) interviewed
Thaksin! Btw, I believe Gen Sonthi can call Hugo Chavez or Fidel
Castro or Mahmoud Ahmadinejad or even Kim Jong-Il, I believe they
will welcome him into their camp.
