Thaksin was scheduled to resume some of his major duties on Monday, including trying to tackle a bloody Muslim insurgency in the country's southern provinces. Spokesman Suraphong Suebwonglee said he might stage a full comeback.

Suraphong told reporters that Thaksin could ask the Cabinet to revoke a resolution, which appointed Chitchai Wannasathit as caretaker Prime Minister.

Thailand has had a caretaker government and no Parliament since April 2 snap general elections were annulled by the Constitutional Court.
