Saprang launches barrage of vitriol at former PM, says he has a cell for him
A junta member yesterday made a veiled attack against ousted prime minister Thaksin Shinawatra who criticised the royal thinking on the sufficiency economy theory, saying the true colours of a traitor would prove to be his own downfall.
"The traitor is slated to be banished to live forever in the jungle because there is no place in society for a deceitful politician," Council for National Security (CNS) assistant secretary-general Saprang Kalayanamitra said, without mentioning any names.
Saprang spoke to a group of 1,000 local politicians, government officials and community leaders, rallying them to assist in uprooting the legacy of the ousted government.
He was on a tour of north-eastern provinces as part of a CNS campaign against the deposed regime.
"Civil servants should know they are dispensing duties on His Majesty's behalf, so they are not supposed to allow themselves to become henchmen for rogue politicians," he said.

Bless 'im. Someone must have told him that grandstanding impresses people. Indeed, it probably does impress Thais but of course he thinks he has a wider audience because he thinks the world views Thais other than as a nuisance who are good at making knock-offs.
Didn't here a lot of this guy when Thaksin was still in office as I recall... silence implies consent. Or cowardice.
