Family Urges Thaksin to Return After New Government Forms
The Shinawatra family wishes for the ex-Prime Minister Thaksin Shinawatra, presently in exile, to delay his return to Thailand, as per a source’s disclosure.
In the lead up to the general elections on May 14, Thaksin, who departed Thailand to avoid a prison sentence, conveyed via a tweet his intention to come back before his 74th birthday on July 26th in order to take care of his grandchildren.
The proposed return was a topic of discussion at a recent family meeting that included Khunying Potjaman Na Pombejra, Thaksin’s former spouse, Thaksin’s daughters, Pintongta along with her spouse, and Paetongtarn.
This family meeting, held at a hotel in Bangkok, occurred after Ms. Paetongtarn, a prime ministerial candidate for the Pheu Thai Party, announced at the Pheu Thai Party headquarters that her father is planning a return home next month and is prepared to confront the law.
