Passport to Paris: Yingluck reunites with Thaksin

It was a very special reunion of former prime ministers today.

A photo of fugitive former Prime Minister Thaksin Shinawatra embracing an unidentified woman with a ponytail resembling deposed former Prime Minister Yingluck Shinawatra was posted to Instagram today by Panthongtae Shinawatra, Thaksin’s eldest son.

“I’m getting a haircut, and someone sent me this photo of my father and a girl,” Panthongtae wrote.

Yingluck, Thailand’s first woman prime minister, was given permission to leave the country by the junta which took power after she was removed from power by a court in May.

It’s been speculated she was traveling to celebrate her big bro’s 65th birthday party Paris.

Looks like they found each other.
