Da King and I


Something tells me "Da Torpedo" (Daranee Chanchoengsilpakul) is not going to give up her fight after the court's decision. It's Da's turn now to be "the thorn" in the side of the "institution". News of her trial hit the headlines across the world, and has become a cause célèbre. The Thai government's attempt to keep her trial secret has backfired, and the whole world is now talking about this gritty little woman.

Compare Da Torpedo's courage with the cowardice shown by the Thai king. Bhumibol Adulyadej now runs away from Thailand's problems, keeping a low profile in some far away luxurious palace, where he can easily shirk his responsibilities to his people.

Thais across the nation are now beginning to realise that their king no longer cares what happens to them, as was demonstrated by this case. As one Thai individual wrote to me and said recently: "All that bad men need to succeed is for good men to remain quiet".

In her rally speech Duranee said that the thai king would either have to adapt and rule in Thailand like the monarchs of Japan and England do, or perish like the monarchs of France or Nepal did. The Thai king seems to have made his choice.

Lese Majeste law is not a substitute for Personal Morality

WARNING! THIS VIDEO CONTAINS SEXUALLY EXPLICIT IMAGES

People can do what they like. We're living in the 21st century, after all. However, the price we have to pay for doing our own thing, is often paid in the form of criticism from others. Thai people understand that as well as any other nation. Yet, there is an elite group of Thais called the royal family, who think that these rules of conduct do not apply to them.

The Thai royal family have the same temptations and desires as the rest of us. But they are not like the rest of us, or so we are told: they are "royal". That means that they have a "duty" to perform, which includes maintaining the good reputation of the very institution they represent.

That "duty" includes setting personal limits to their moral conduct, with regards to social and sexual behaviour. But the Thai royal family don't seem to understand that, as winessed by the behavious of the Crown Prince and several Thai princesses.

In Thailand there is a law called lese majeste law, which seems to have become a sustitute for personal moral limits. The Thai royal family, appear to think that they can act as they please, whip it in, whip it out, wipe it, then whip out this law to impose silence on their Thai subjects, all in one clever move.

The point I'm making is that people need to distinguish between "protecting" the Thai king and his family from unwarranted malicious gossip, and "covering" for him and his family when they have done something which is morally wrong, unlawful, or brings disrepute and shame to the institution.

Today's conviction of Da Torpedo, is one example of the latter use of this law. It is a flagrant abuse of lese majeste law, as Da Torpedo was simply making the point that without the Thai king's approval, there would not have been 15 military coups in Thailand. The Thai king shouldn't be "protected" from such opinions, he should be made to face them.

Then there are the soft porn videos of members of the Thai royal family which have been appearing on the net recently, and which I have posted in this blog. Below you'll find yet another example. So I ask you, if the women in these photographs really are members of the Thai royal family, why should they be "protected" from criticism? Nobody forced then to remove their clothes and raise their legs.

Forget the argument that these photographs are "private". There not. You've just seen them, as you have every right to. Nothing an individual in a privileged social position does is "private", that's why they get paid so much. Just as in Europe, the Thai royal family must be answerable for their actions, and not hide behind lese majeste law all the time.

Now that you've watched the video, you're curious to know who these women are. Right? Well I'll tell you. The first couple of photographs are of the talented actress who was "expunged" by her bad-tempered ex-husband and sent into exile with her five children. Do your research in this blog and you'll know who I'm talking about.

Then there's an exquisite set of photographs of light skinned young oriental woman, whose name is a complete mystery. The Thai Crown Prince, Maha Vajiralongkornk, knows perfectly well who she is though. The word on the net is that this svelte air hostess is the Prince's latest "acquisition". I wonder if it's true.... If so, it means infidelity too, is now covered by lese majeste law.

I won't bore you with details of the last "model" in the video. Not only does plain Jane not know how to pose, but if the young lady in these photographs really is the person who Thai people say she is, she can't sing either: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tQfO53r3bC4 Who let the pussy out?

Finally, there's Queen Sirikit fresh out of the local gym, looking ever so sad, with a tear oozing out of her bloodshot eye. Not suprising really, this royal snap was taken at the funeral of her late "bodyguard". Do your research in this blog, and you'll discover the name of the deceased. A right little tiger, until the jackass who pays for everything put a stop to that nonsense!

Like I was saying, the Thai royal family could never hope to be a moral example to anyone, so instead they hide behind lese majeste law and demand respect from Thais and farangs alike by imprisoning anyone who threatens to expose their disgusting behaviour. Will the shame ever end?

Da Torpedo and "The One"

"Guilty". That's the verdict. But "guilty" of what? Does anyone actually know what Da Torpedo said in her rally speech? Thai people know, of course. They know the verdict is wrong because she spoke the truth. But for the rest of us who don't speak Thai, it's all a big mystery.

But not any more! Here is the video we have all been waiting for. It turned up in Youtube srirasmiubitch, and reveals a small part of what Da Torpedo said about the king. There can be no doubt now, that the verdict of 18 years prison, is politically motivated.

But the video doesn't reveal everything Da Torpedo said about the king. She said more. Much more. Here's a summary of her speech:

Da Torpedo also said that Thailand would not have had an 8th Rama (Ananda Mahidol) without help from Pridi Banomyong (if you're not sure who this man is look here) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pridi_Banomyong The monarchy in Thailand had almost disappeared. But Pridi brought the name of Ananda Mahidol into voting in parliament, without this vote it is almost sure there wouldn't have been a Rama 8 (Ananda Mahidol) or Rama 9 (Bhumibol Adulyadej). It is because of Pridi, that the monarchy continues to exist in Thailand to this day.

In her speech, Da Torpedo claimed Prime minister Pridi was generous to the Monarchy. He helped the Chakri dynasty to be alive again, but Pridi himself was betrayed by "the One" (Bhumibol Adulyadej). The one who killed Rama 8.

At this point in her speech, there were cheers from the crowd as Da Torpedo claimed Pridi had been falsely accused of murdering Ananda Mahidol. It was "the One" (Bhumibol Adulyadej) who had set the whole thing up!

After being accused of the murder of Ananda Mahidol (Rama 8), Pridi's political reputation was in ruins, but the acusation labelled against him was completely false. Pridi was not involved in the murder of Rama 8. It now seemed the Monarchy Pridi had helped to bring back, had turned against him.

As a result of this event, Pridi now faced many political problems, until he was forced to leave Thailand. There were other reasons why Pridi had to abandon his homeland, not just the false acusations surrounding the death of Ananda Mahidol. Plaek Pibulsonggram, was now in charge of Thailand (look here for information) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phibun

Pridi was ousted in a military coup. Plaek Pibulsonggram then took control of Thailand, forcing Pridi to live in France for the rest of his life. Pridi never returned home to Thailand. When he died, his body was brought back to thailand. Bhumibol's mother went to Pridi's funeral, because according to Da Torpedo, she knew very well that her son (Bhumibol Adulyadej) was now king thanks to Pridi. Bhumibol's mother went to the funeral out of gratitude.

Da Torpedo then spoke about how Marshall Plaek and Bhumibol Adulyadej didn't get on. Marshall Plaek made an attempt to expose Bhumibol for the murder of his brother, but he did not succeed. Then Da Torpedo questioned Bhumibol's motives for not attending Pridi's funeral. This is considered an insult in Thailand. So why the king's absense?

"Da" then spoke at length about the murder of Ananda Mahidol. She claimed that all of evidence had been tampered or simply disposed of. This was the reason why "The One" (Bhumibol Adulyadej) had never been caught. The crowd found this part of the speech extremely entertaining, as Da Torpedo examined the evidence in an effort to find the truth.

The rally speech continues, until "Da" mentions Thailand's former Prime Minister Thaksin Shinawatra. Da Torpedo praised Thaksin, saying that he really cared for Thai people, just like Pridi had all those years earlier. The crowd listened attentively, as "Da" continued to talk favourably about both these men.

At this point of her speech, Da Torpedo declares to the crowd that: "If you don't know who the real enemy of democracy is, then you will have 100 battles, and lose 100 battles, for sure". This is the main point "Da" wanted to make. She wanted people to think about the real cause of Thailand's military coups. Who is signing the approval for these coups? It is "the one"! She declared, though without mentioning his name. Even so, those present at the rally, knew she was refering to Bhumibol Adulyadej.

Da Torpedo then changes to a different topic, and begins to talk about Apirak Kosayodhin (look here) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apirak_Kosayodhin She claimed Apirak had advanced so far in his career simply because he had sent his son to sleep with General Prem Tinsulanonda. General Prem, said "Da", is gay and he loves young boys.

The present conflict in Thailand then becomes the focus of her speech. According to "Da", the real conflict in Thailand is between the Monarchy and the new capitalist system under Thaksin. Da asked Thai people to "wake up" and to open their eyes and see the hidden agenda of those who want to destroy democracy. "Da" told the crowd to prepare to fight for their rights, like "western countries", which had already "knocked down" their monarchies. In this way, Da Torpedo concluded, democracy may finally recover.

"Da" then gives "The One" (Bhumibol Adulyadej) two choices: Either "The One" adapts and learns to rule like monarchs do in Japan and England, or "The One" will be punished, like the Monarchs of France and Nepal were. "The One" would have to choose very carefully. Da Torpedo never utters Bhumibol's name, but it is clear to everyone present at the rally, who she is referring to.

Da Torpedo's frustration during this part of the speech is evident to see for those at the rally. "Da" wants Thai people to "wake up" and to see the "real enemy", but she dare not speak his name. It is quite uncomfortable to listen to. "Da" uses some very rude language to refer to "The One" because it seems, she can't take it anymore.

"The One" says "Da" is now very old. He should be ashamed for what he has done to Thai people for such a long time. Da Torpedo then concludes her speech. She blesses the crowd, so that peace may return to their hearts.

On July 22nd, 2008, Da Torpedo was arrested and charged with Lese Majeste (insulting the monarch). She presented herself at Police Station so that Thai police would not have to arrest her at her house. "Da" has spent one year in prison, and now faces the posibility of spending a further 18 years behind bars.

Lese majeste law is an unjust law. And it seems "Da" may want to sacrifice herself in an effort to wake Thai people up. This she aims to achieve, by challenging "The One" with nothing but the spoken word and by being sent to prison. If, as supporters of the Thai king claim, "The One" really has any compassion he should not remain silent.

Lese Majeste law is an insanity. It has turned Thai people into mere slaves. Slaves who cannot critisise their master. That's what "The One" wanted all along.

Who said the Thai royal family has no voice?

Remember Sondhi Limthongkul? You know, the PAD leader who was shot in the head by someone "high up"? Then, when he threatened to "expose" the "lady" who organised it all, Thanpuying Viriya, the lady-in-waiting to Her Majesty the Queen, quickly denied that she was that "someone". This sounds like the plot of a low quality Brazillian soap.

Anyway, after the incident, this video from ThaiPresident turned up questioning the notion that the Thai royal family needs lese majeste law because, quote "they haven't got a voice". And as it turned out, that feeble notion is completely false, as was clearly demonstrated by the Sondhi case.

You see, soon after the Sondhi shooting incident, Sirikit's deputy private secretary casually announced that Thanpuying had not been appointed lady-in-waiting. What more proof do you need? It's so obvious a child could see it. The Thai royal family rewards those who "do well" (General Prem in now the Thai king's privy) and punishes those like Thanpuying who slip up in the course of their " royal duties".

Thank you ThaiPresident for demonstrating how the Thai king and his family most definitely have a political voice. A very big voice. They make their feelings known perfectly well. Lese majeste law is not there to protect the king, it's only there to control Thai people and foreigners. So cut the crap please Abhisit, it's the Thai army who needs this law, not the king.

The Sirikitsch Show: Sufficiency Humbug

How could Giles punch Thailand's beautiful queen in the face like that?! Right in the middle of the Sirikitsch Show too! Did you see Sirikit's tiara fly off with the force of the punch? LOL! Good one Giles!

If you want to listen to Giles' complete conference speech, go to soasmedia. There are a total of nine videos dealing with topics such as the PAD, the 2006 military coup, lese majeste law, everything you've ever wanted to know about Thailand's current political crisis in fact.

Yep! It's clear that King Bhumibol's Sufficiency theory is nothing but humbug! Like Giles said, more and more Thais are now learning the truth about Sufficiency and how it benefits the rich at the expense of the poor. A swimming pool for his dog, eh? Nice if you can afford it.

Is the Chakri Dynasty at an end?

One year ago, Giles Ji Ungpakorn abandoned Thailand in haste, after being accused of lese majeste by Thai police and threatened with prison. All for writing a book entitled "A Coup for the Rich" in which he criticised the Thai army for organising the 2006 military coup against Thailand's democratic government.

Although at the time Giles himself didn't criticise the Thai king, things in Thailand are starting to change. Many ordinary Thais are now seriously questioning their king's role in Thai politics, and according to an article published by Giles in his blog, are becoming increasingly anti-royal.

But why? Well, for many reasons: the Thai Royals have abused the legal system in Thailand many times, and Thai people know it. The king has endorsed several military coups, he has ignored his people, and he no longer appears to be concerned for his subjects. None of this goes down well with Thai people.

It's a fact. Thailand's Royal family no longer has any real virtue today. As royal expenditure skyrockets each year, reaching an estimated 3,000 billion bah in 2011, Thai people look in disgust as their royal family live it up in lavish Palaces and spend huge amounts of public dosh on cars, banquets, jewels, frivolities.
.
According to Giles, Thailand's Royals are fast becoming the enemy of Thai people, who watch in horror as their constitution is threatened and they are slowly robbed of their civil rights. Thai people now feel their king has insulted not only his people, but democracy too.

The Thai king remained silent in April 2009, as Thailand's corrupt army used violence against the Red shirts. PAD supporters shut down the Airport, but the king said nothing. The Queen visited the funeral of a PAD activist to show her support for PAD. Bhumibol said nothing.

Then, as Thai people looked for guidance from their king, Bhumibol refused to appear for his traditional Birthday speech in December 2008, claiming he had a "sore throat". The result? Anti-royal sentiment is now spreading all around Thailand. The word on the street is that the Royals no longer respect the people, so the people no longer respect the royals.

But according to Giles's article, anti-Royal sentiments in Thailand are nothing new. Such things have happened many times in the past, but have never led to a Republican revolution. Rama 5, Rama 6 and Rama 7 all faced hostility from their own people.

In Rama 7's case, there was a revolution group led by Pridi, but Pridi's intention had never been to overthrow the Thai monachy, and so the Chakri dynasty continued. Bhumibol Adulyadej is now the 9th Rama. Like many other people in Thailand, Giles desperately wants change, but the Thai royals should not be underestimated. They haven't come this far only to give up now.

Thailand's Chakri dynasty intends to hold on to power by any means. Whatever the cost to Thai people. good video from sia4playboy.

Thailand's royal costs skyrocket each year!


Ever wanted to know how much the Thai royal family costs Thai people? Well here is that information! These are the official figures folks, they turned up here Sia4playboy, and what they reveal is a shocking level of opulence on the part of the Thai king and his spawn.

In a nation with so many poor people who barely manage to feed their families, it's gobsmacking to discover that Thailand's royal inbreds live in absolute luxury in lavish royal palaces, spending public money like there's no tomorrow!

No danger of the Thai royals going broke though. The large diamond you see in the video is known as the "Jubilee diamond". It's worth approximately 12 million US dollars, and guess who owns it.... Bhumibol Adulyadej! Read about it here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Golden_Jubilee_Diamond

Maha Vajiralongkorn Can't Wait to be King!

Thai people hate MahaVajiralongkorn. That wouldn't be a problem if he wasn't Thailand's future king, but he is. OK, so he humiliates his wife Srirasmi by making her eat cake from the floor like a dog, but aren't Thai people being a bit harsh with him? He's really a good guy, right?

Well, no. You see, There's more to Sia O than meets the eye. Thais know many of his secrets and are fearful of their Crown Prince. But why? Well for a start, Sia O has a foul temper. He regularly beats his servants, and has even been accused by international organisations of killing one of his servants. There's also evidence that he killed the mother of one of his servants in a fit of rage.

As if that wasn't enough, it is said that Sia O sends out "sex scouts" in uniform around Thailand to look for the most beautiful young Thai women to act as his sex slaves. These women are brought back to Nontaburi Palace where they are violently raped in sex orgies. Hey! That's what Thai people say! Don't blame me for publishing it.

Then there's the most worrying rumour of all. According to some Thais, the prince has even been involved in the deaths of close family members of those women who have refused his sexual advances. But, that's nothing compared to what he did to his own sister!

Witnesses saw the Thai Crown Prince pull a gun on one of his sisters, shoot, miss, and kill one of her body guards. This happened on a visit to Germany not that long ago. Oh! And then there's the incident involving a close actress friend of Srirasmi who was said to have been killed by Sia O. Don't look so shocked! Thai people accept this as the truth.

Now do you get the picture? Thais often say: "If you criticise the king, you go to prison. If you criticise the Crown Prince you are killed." All this begs the question: Why isn't Maha Vajiralongkorn brought to justice? Answer: Because Thailand's lese majeste law makes it a crime to criticise members of the Thai royal family. Handy little law that.

Chep Chuchai: Wanted for lese majeste

King Bhumibol is universally "revered" by ALL Thai people, right? Tell that to Chuchep Cheewasute (AKA Chep Chuchai). Until recently he was a popular radio host in Thailand. Then he had the great idea of speaking his mind on Thailand's royal family, especially the Thai king, rather like they do in democratic countries. The result? Cheep is now on the run from Thai police!

Predictably, Chep was accused of lese majeste, and in Thailand that's a very serious "crime". Thais are not supposed to question or criticise their divine king, those who dare to question their monarch's wisdom are hunted down like animals and thrown in prison. Remember folks, Thailand is different: universal human rights do not apply here thank you!

Sirikit: "Bhumibol is in great shape"


What do Queen Sirikit's words about the Thai king's health reveal? And what do they hide? Why the emphasis on Bhumibol's "active" lifestyle during her birthday speech? And why has the Thai king been moved to another palace, far away from the public's gaze?

These are just some of the questions raised by this video which can be found here: FuketTheRama. Don't panic everyone! The king is in GREAT SHAPE! Queen Sirikit's words, not mine. The question is, who's in charge now? My guess is that sirikit is in charge, so will she be the one who grants Thaksin a royal pardon? I don't think so...

You see, it's not about Bhumibol's "health", it's about the petition from the UDD asking for a royal pardon for Thaksin. The Thai king doesn't want to know, so rather than say "no" he's pretending to have another of his "sore throats". Remember his birthday speech last December? The day after his "sore throat" Bhumibol turned up at an event looking just fine.

When are Thai people going to realise that their king doesn't want to listen to his people?

Harry Nicolaides: One year on.

It's now one year ago (31 August, 2008) since the Australian author, Harry Nicolaides, was arrested at Bangkok airport as he was about to catch a flight home to spend some time with his family. He didn't arrive home until after Christmas!



From StopLeseMajeste

The reason for his arrest? A single passage in a book Harry had written called Verisimilitude, which at that time had sold a mere seven copies, and was available at Bangkok central library - and still is! This was the passage from the book which so offended Thai police and landed Harry in prison:



From StopLeseMajeste

"From King Rama to the Crown Prince, the nobility was renowned for their romantic entanglements and intrigues. The Crown Prince had many wives major and minor with a coterie of concubines for entertainment. One of his recent wives was exiled with her entire family, including a son they conceived together, for an undisclosed indiscretion. He subsequently remarried with another woman and fathered another child. It was rumoured that if the prince fell in love with one of his minor wives and she betrayed him, she and her family would disappear with their name, familial lineage and all vestiges of their existence expunged forever."



From StopLeseMajeste

We shouldn't forget that there are still many people including Giles Ungpakorn who are unable to return to Thailand, because of pending lese majeste charges. It begs the question: Why can't the Thai king pardon these people without sending them to prison first? It doesn't make any sense, and simply proves that the Thai king endorses this wicked law.



From The Akha Heritage Foundation



From ChimpsTparty



After many months in prison and huge international pressure, Harry Nicolaides was finally granted a "Royal Pardon" by the king of Thailand. Harry is now back in Australia with his family. Harry's case brought the issue of lese majeste law to the front pages of practically every newspaper in the West, though more recent cases involving Thai citizens (Da Torpedo and Suwicha Thakhor) have received little press attention.




From FuketTheRama

Bloggers of the World Unite and Fight Back!

As the title of this video suggests, the time has come for bloggers all around the world to show solidarity with Thai people and fight against lese majeste law. This video can be found here: ChimpsTparty and is actually a report from July's edition of The Economist.

Because the information comes from The Economist, that makes it fairly reliable and quite frightening too. Listen to the arrest figures again. According to The Economist, "dozens" of Thai people are now being arrested and may even go to prison. The time has come for international Blogger community to do something! But what?

The author of this video suggestest the best way to fight lese majeste law is to "mock the Thai king" by making "ape king" videos, and even suggests how to make them. Look here for example: Smashmash. So if you want to help in the fight against censorship and tyranny, start making your videos now.

Oh! And I promise to post them in this blog - with pleasure!

This is for Suwicha Thakhor - thaiman8


thaiman8 was the Youtube channel used by Suwicha Thakhor to upload videos mocking the Thai king onto the internet. Thai police discovered his IP address and traced it to his home computer. Police then burst into Suwicha's home where his family slept, and charged him with "insulting" the Thai king.

Suwicha stands out from ordinary Thais because he dared to act defiantly against the tyranny that has become lese majeste law, knowing that he could be arrested and sent to prison. His only mistake was to use his home computer, which he kept in his bedroom.

According to The Economist magazine, "dozens" of Thai bloggers have now been arrested for making comments on chatboards and forums deemed "insulting" to the king of Thailand. Many, after using home computers or computers at their place of work.

The tactics used by lese majeste agents vary: sometimes legal, sometimes illegal. They often write "official" letters on fancy letterhead paper to unsuspecting web masters, falsely claiming to represent the Thai government. In my case, shadowy figures requested my personal details from Spanish police insinuating that I was "wanted" in Thailand for "pending crimes". Meaning lese majeste.

The moral of the story is NEVER post political comments from a personal computer that can be traced directly to you, but do keep posting comments. As for webmasters, remember, you are under no obligation to give Thai lese majeste agents IP addresses without a court order. So please, web masters, protect your users from these lese majeste fanatics and don't give out any information.

All hail the King of Sham

How have Thai people arrived at this point? Why has an entire nation chosen to blindfold itself for six decades, refusing to question the official truth? Thaksin Shinawatra, Thailand's former Prime Minister, knows the answer: "The problem in Thailand is dishonesty", he recently said.

The ex premier's words are spot on! The consequence of this dishonesty, is that Thailand's monarchy is fast becoming the laughing stock of the world. Their king especially, once deeply respected by the international community, is now ridiculed and mocked by bloggers, as he deserves to be, for remaining silent on the issue of lese majeste law.

Many Thai people have simply closed their eyes and ears to the sham that has become the Thai monarchy. "The king must be protected at all cost!" They say, though they never specify what he has done wrong to merit such protection. The king is "above politics", they say, yet evidently he endorses military coups and lese majeste law. "He lives a simple life", they retort angrily. Yet, Forbes magazine has named him the richest monarch in the world two years running.

This self deception, even goes so far as to think that their "faith" in the Thai king is being "tested" in some way, so that when the cold facts are presented to them, they accuse detractors of Bhumibol Adulyadej of "trying to make then stop loving their king." When all we're trying to do is to demonstrate that the king is no saint.

Saints, the Thai king and his family are certainly not. While Thailand's elite: the urban middle class, the army, big business, the monarchy, etc, have been having a knees up for the last sixty years, most Thai people live a life of misery, often turning to prostitution just to feed their families. This is what Bhumibol mockingly calls the: "Sufficiency economy".

The biggest sham of all, however, is not "Sufficiency theory" - which is nothing more than Thailand's equivalent of "Let them eat cake!" dressed up with speudo economic rhetoric. No. It's not even Bhumibol's excesses: he owns a Rolls Royce, the Jubilee diamond, 35 billion dollars, the luxurious "Grand" palace, etc, ect.

The biggest sham of all, is Thailand's draconian lese majeste law: An anachronism from Thailand's past (though French in origin) which the king's supporters use to punish without mercy anyone who "insults" their king or refuses to participate in this sham. If you're lucky, you'll be put down by Thai royalists with a dismissive: "Shut up!", or even, "You know nothing!". Even though, you are simply trying to argue your point.

Yet nobody, apart from a few Thai people, know what Da Torpedo actually said in her rally speech: apart from a few snippets that have been translated into English, her speech has never been fully translated. To do so, is lese majeste, and a risk to "National security". But what is clear, is that Da Torpedo was trying to argue her point. Where's the "insult" in that?

As we await Da Torpedo's lese majeste verdict, Westerners should remember that her trial is being held behind closed doors: No journalists allowed! Newspaper readers won't even know what her "crime" is, only that she is guilty of "insulting" the king. This is what Thailand's Prime Minister calls "Thai culture".

I disagree. Abhisit Vejjajiva can demand respect for the Thai king and his family all he wants, but most people know the difference between "culture" and "cult". Thailand is a "cult" society. Thai royalists expect blind obedience not only from Thai subjects, but from foreigners too, while they deny both any semblance of justice. Well, we're not going to take it any more. We're going to take your advice and stay away from Thailand.

The Thai government's humiliation of Da Torpedo, Suwicha Thakhor, Oliver Jufer, and Harry Nicolaides, is an abuse of human rights. Not Thai culture. It's time supporters of the Thai king realised that neither Thai people nor foreigners, are prepared to go along with this dishonest sham any longer. Keep your "royal yellow" blindfolds Mr Abhisit, we don't love the king.

WARNING! THIS VIDEO CONTAINS SEXUALLY EXPLICIT IMAGES

Oh look! Another Hot, hot, hot video! Guess who this is? I'll give you a clue: She's married to the world's biggest loser. LOL. Actually, I'm a bit suspicious about the authenticity of these "royal pics". Somehow, these girls just don't look convincing enough. What's your opinion? Are they just fake look-alike models, or the real macCoy?

The only way to really know is from the reaction in Bangkok. If Thai censors kick up an almighty fuss, then we'll know for sure these girls are not just common Thai floozies. Or maybe not.... Anyway, there are rumours of more videos to come!

I'll keep a lookout to see if additional Hot, hot, hot videos turn up. The word on the net is that there is at least one more video in the pipeline. The question is, who's the next model going to look like? Sirikit? No, please! Do they make these videos in wide screen edition too?

Thank you to PK for pointing out my earlier mistake. Wrong slut. Sorry.
