finalwager by Potjaman, with profound knowledge of the elite surpassing Thaksin's comprehension
In the realm of Thai politics, the week of September 13th saw a mix of familial visits, political rallies, and border tensions. Paetongtarn Shinawatra, daughter of former Prime Minister Thaksin Shinawatra, shared a heartwarming anecdote about her family's unique bond. Despite meeting through a glass partition, they encouraged each other on every matter and topic. This poignant moment was reminiscent of a poignant chapter in a life drama, as Khunying Potjaman, Thaksin's former wife, visited him at Klong Prem Central Prison on Monday, September 15th. Accompanied by their daughters, the visit served as a morale booster for the Pheu Thai ranks, reinforcing confidence that the Shinawatra family remains determined to fight the next election. In a rare appearance, Khunying Potjaman made a speech at a meeting of Pheu Thai MPs on Tuesday, September 16th, urging them to 'Keep fighting.' If she were to lead Pheu Thai into the next general election, she would likely draw on Thaksin's hard-earned lessons from the past two years. Thaksin Shinawatra, a son of Chinese immigrants in northern Thailand, rose to become a telecommunications tycoon after enrolling in the Police Cadet Academy and pursuing his studies abroad. However, his life took a different turn when he was overthrown and forced into exile. In a candid admission on Clubhouse, Thaksin, under the alias 'Tony Woodsome', acknowledged that he was overthrown because he was 'simple, even foolish', never part of the elite establishment. Meanwhile, the Thai army uncovered two more landmine sites, with evidence suggesting that Cambodia was targeting Thai troops. In response, the Thai army defended the use of tear gas and rubber bullets during a border clash. Amidst these political and military events, a Thai Buddhist Leader advocated for peace and meditation at a Global Interfaith Summit. The new storm gaining strength is forecast to bring heavy rain to Thailand, offering a much-needed respite from the political turmoil. In a book titled 'Thaksin Shinawatra: Theory and Thought', Thaksin admitted that he felt he had been foolish about people, as his life experience was that of a country boy and he had little exposure to Bangkok society and the circles of the elite. Khunying Potjaman, in the same book, recalled that she and Thaksin grew up together, met when she was 15 and he was 21, and built their lives side by side. She also expressed a wish for Thaksin to return and take care of his grandchildren. Khunying Pojaman na Pombejra, a prominent figure in Thai politics, is known as the wife of former Prime Minister Thaksin Shinawatra, and has been involved in political events primarily through her close association with him and the Shinawatra family. Her words to the Pheu Thai MPs serve as a testament to the enduring influence of the Shinawatra family in Thai politics.
