Thaksin's new name : Takki Shinegra

Post by hhfarang »

Thai minister says Thaksin's name in passports issued by African countries has been changed. -The Nation/ANN

Runaway ex-PM Thaksin Shinawatra has used new name in his passports issued by some African countries, Thai Vice foreign minister Panich Vikitsreth said Wednesday.

Thaksin's name in passports issued by Nicaragua, Uganda and Montenegro has been changed to "Takki Shinegra," he said.

The Thai government has revoked Thaksin's diplomatic passport issued during his premiership. He was believed to have an ordinary Thai passport. Some African countries have issued him a special passport to facilitate his travels and his visit to the countries.

Panich said Thaksin's new name may cause problem for Thailand's attempt to bring him back to face two-year jail term on charge of corruption.

"Problems can happen when we ask foreign countries to extradite him. We name him in our request as Thaksin Shinawatra but when those countries check his presence, they would not find him because he used different name," Panich said.

Unless he's had cosmetic surgery, he's pretty unmistakable with that square head.
A passport from Uganda? Wish I had one.

"Takki Shinegra,"
It sounds to me more like he just told them his name over a bad phone line!

well it was inevitable really - his lies have obviously now reached critical mass and hes just one big walking lie who cant even answer simple questions like

"what's your name?"

Id have said "Walter Mitty" was a more appropriate alias.

Well it could have been Tarka the Otter, the name sounds similar but the resemblance is uncanny.

Nicaragua, Uganda and Montenegro - what a collection!

He could have used aliases;

Nicaraguan Passport - Manuel Noriega (Actually looks a bit like him)
Ugandan Passport - Idi Amin
Montenegran Passport - Ratko Mladic?
