Breaking News; PM Samak disqualified by court order

Breaking News; PM Samak disqualified by court order

With an hour and a half delay, since the PM himself didn't show up at the court room in Bangkok for the 2 pm scheduled hearing that was going to determine if the PM violated the charter.

The English newspaper the nation has this article; SAMAK DISQUALIFIED with a live update and this entry; Convicted Samak disqualified.

It will be very interesting to see how this develops and what impact it will have on the current political situation in Thailand.

Here's a bit of explanation on why Samak got disqualified and interestingly enough, his political party is about to vote Samak back as PM. Apparently that will be decided this coming Friday.
