Cartoonist's view of Thaksin and his Cambodia base


Former Premier Thaksin Shinawatra is due to return to Cambodia later this month -- the third time in the past three months -- and this cartoon by my favourite political cartoonist "Stepff" caught my attention once again.

Thaksin is appparently using Cambodia as his base to "coach" his Pheau Thai MPs in preparation for political activities, including a series of public rallies, in the wake of the upcoming court's verdict on Feb 26 over his Bt76 billion frozen assets.

It's going to be, to put it mildly, a very interesting next few weeks indeed.
