The former prime minister of Thailand who lives in Dubai, Thaksin Shinawatra is no longer the only family member ousted out of his nation's government. His younger sister Yingluck, after months of anti-government protests, was ousted as prime minister in May 2014. She now faces criminal charges over her government's controversial rice subsidy scheme and a ban from leaving the country. He owns a controlling stake of SC Asset, a real estate developer, among much else.
