Officially,the reason for Prime Minister Thaksin Shinawatra's trip to through his rural political stro* stronghold is still to publicize his enty anti-poverty program programs.
On Monday,officials accompanying him in the north of the country began handing out * and land deeds and cows to local farmers,supposedly as part of an effort to publicize the program' programs' success successes.
The government government's program also calls helps for half a million or more cadle cattle to discrap it be distributed over three years.
But the distribution of cadle cattle during Mr. Thaksin's tour quickly drew criticism from politicians such as * Likit Theerawekin , a former member of the prime minister's * Thai Rak Thai party.
Giving out one a million cows - that is the a policy with his which is risking of violating electoral law,and it's it is unfair to the other party parties where that have no opportunity to do such a thing.
The Prime prime Minister's minister's office announced Tuesday that it would halt the government handout handouts during the tour. But that is not likely to silence some of Mr. Thaksin's critics,who regularly accuse him of using abusing his office for political and financial gain.
