OH! MY ACHING HEAD...THAKSIN

Thai senator urges Singapore to clarify Shin Corp deal
Wed Mar 8, 7:54 AM ET

BANGKOK (AFP) - A prominent Thai senator urged Singapore to address claims of wrongdoing in the sale of the Shin Corp telecom empire founded by Thai Prime Minister Thaksin Shinawatra to a Singapore firm.

Thaksin's relatives made 1.9 billion dollars when they sold their nearly 50 percent stake in Shin Corp to Singapore's state-linked investment firm Temasek. The tax-free deal ignited mass protests in Bangkok that threaten Thaksin's government.
Senator Kraisak Choonhavan, chairman of the foreign affairs committee, told the city-state's Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong in a letter that the protests in Bangkok could affect relations with Singapore.

"I would like to, therefore, bring this matter to your kind attention with the hope that you and your esteemed parliament may help address allegations of impropriety from this transaction and clarify any misunderstandings between our peoples," Kraisak said.

The senator also sent the letter to Abdullah Tarmugi, the speaker of Singapore's parliament.

"The relationship between our two countries must not be jeopardised as a result of a single business transaction, especially since Singapore is respected...for her belief in the values of transparency, accountability and good governance," the letter said.

The sale is set to be finalized Thursday, with the end of Temasek's tender offer for the remaining shares in Shin Corp.

The senator raised a litany of concerns about the deal, including alleged tax evasion, insider trading and asset concealment.

He also said that Thai laws prevented foreign ownership of three Shin Corp companies now under Temasek's control.

Protesters seeking to oust Thaksin threatened Wednesday to boycott nearly 100 products and companies with ties to the premier or to Temasek, including several top international brands and companies from Singapore and Thailand.

A day earlier, protesters outside the Singaporean embassy urged the country to stop the Temasek deal and threatened to march on the embassy Thursday -- a move which spooked investors and sent the stock market tumbling.
