http://www.infoplease.com/ipa/A0108034.htmlThaksin Shinawatra, head of the Thai Rak Thai Party, became prime minister in Jan. 2001.
The hugely popular Thaksin, a billionaire telecommunications mogul,
was indicted in Dec. 2000
on corruption charges but acquitted in Aug. 2001.In Feb. 2003,
Thaksin announced plans to eliminate the drug trade from Thailand within three months.
When the operation concluded at the end of April, nearly 2,300 people had been killed. Government officials
claimed responsibility for about 35 of the casualties, blaming drug dealers and gang members for the other
deaths. Human rights activists, however, suspected police forces had been overly aggressive in their campaign.
Violence has plagued Thailand's Muslim-dominated southern provinces since the beginning of 2004, with armed
insurgents attacking police stations, security stations, and military depots. Nearly 800 people have been killed
in the attacks, which officials attribute to Islamic militants. The violence intensified in July 2005, prompting Thaksin
to declare a state of emergency in the south. Pattani Province was rocked by attacks in Feb. 2007, when some
30 coordinated bombs exploded at bars, hotels, and electricity transmitters. While the insurgents have been vague
in explaining their motivation for such attacks, the most recent bombings suggest they are targeting Buddhists
as well as other Muslims.
On Dec. 26, 2004, a tremendously powerful tsunami ravaged 12 Asian countries.
Thailand reported about 5,300 casualties.
Thaksin made history in the Feb. 2005 elections, becoming the first prime minister to serve two consecutive terms.
His Thai Rak Thai Party won in a landslide.
He was criticized during his first term for alleged corruption,
for failing to control the insurgency in the south, and for an ineffective response to Thailand's avian flu outbreak,
but his deft handling of the tsunami crisis increased his popularity in the days leading up to the election. A year later,
however,
Thaksin faced intense criticism when he sold his family's share of a communications company for
nearly $2 billion without paying tax. About 60,000 demonstrators gathered in Bangkok and called for his resignation.
In addition,
two of his cabinet members resigned in protest. Facing mounting criticism over the sale,
Thaksin dissolved parliament in late February and called for early elections. He announced his resignation in April,
just days after his Thai Rak Thai Party won 57% of the vote in national elections.
After leaving office for
seven weeks, Thaksin again returned to the role of prime minister.In September, the military, led by Gen. Sondhi Boonyaratkalin, staged a bloodless coup and declared martial law
while Prime Minister Thaksin Shinawatra is at the meeting of the UN General Assembly in New York. In October,
Surayud Chulanont, a respected retired general, was sworn in as prime minister. The military council that installed
Chulanont announced that a new general election will be held in late 2007, after a new constitution has been written.
A constitutional court found the political party of former Prime Minister Thaksin Shinawatra,
Thai Rak Thai, guilty of election fraud and banned it from participating in government for five years.--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
ถ้ามีชาวต่างประเทศเข้ามาอ่านคงมองทักษิณได้ไม่ดีเท่าไหร่ แต่ผมชอบข้อมูลของเขานะ
มีทั้งเรื่องซุกหุ้น ฆ่าตัดตอน ขายหุ้นไม่เสียภาษี ลาออกแล้วกลับคำ ไปจนถึงโกงเลือกตั้ง
