Thaksin 'has quit politics'
Thai Rak Thai acting party leader Chaturon Chaisang said yesterday that former prime minister and Thai Rak Thai leader Thaksin Shinawatra really has quit politics - as he had stated previously.
He said Thaksin might "still have a social role and continue to comment on Thai politics" but not as strongly as in the past. However, Thaksin would not run in an election and would not try to be prime minister again, Chaturon said. "Thaksin is an active man, he can't stay still. No matter what his occupation, he is like that," Chaturon said. "Commenting on politics, especially on issues related to him or his concern about the country, doesn't mean he is still a politician or is in politics."
