Yingluck upbeat she can be Thailand's first woman PM

BANGKOK: Yingluck Shinawatra is confident she can be Thailand's first female prime minister.

The Puea Thai Party candidate, who has a slight lead in the polls, told Anasuya Sanyal in an exclusive interview with Channel NewsAsia that she wants to lead Thailand towards reconciliation.

Critics have said that her older brother, fugitive former prime minister Thaksin Shinawatra, will be ruling from behind the scenes if she is elected.

But Yingluck maintained that her background in a well-known political family and decades of experience in business would help her guide the country.

She said that by abiding by the rule of law and invoking the same standards for everyone, Thailand would be able to move forward from its political turmoil.

Who is this guy/girl chr5210? Do you think keep hating and name calling her will make the democrat look better? Grow the fuck up.

[chr5210]

@fatpigiam Yeah as a Thai Rak Party. Thaksin's sister Yingluck is puppet villain, too.

[chr5210]

Yingluck Shinawatra will be bought to justice like her brother Thaksin Shinawatra. And her Pheu Thai accomplices and her Red Shirt accomplices. Pheu Thai Party have to be banned and dissolved.

[chr5210]

@katoeysauy No, you're not. Yingluck Shinawatra is not a Prime Minister of Thailand. She is a criminal. And she's under arrest as a Pheu Thai bimbo like her brother ousted Prime Minister Thaksin Shinawatra for insulting and defaming the Thai Monarch, election fraud that cheated Democrat Incumbent Prime Minister Abhisit Vejjajiva for his reelection in July 2011 all because of the Red Shirt accomplices, supporter of exile Thaksin, corruption, and murdering more than 500 victims in the flooding.
