Sam Mitr group to announce their party choice within the month

By The Nation

 

A leader of the Sam Mitr (“three friends”) group said on Saturday his group would unveil within this month which political party it would join in the run-up to the country’s election.

 

Somsak Thepsutin, one of the three leaders of the influential group, said he expected that all new political parties would be registered within this month and so his group would make a formal announcement of its choice of party.

 

Somsak said the group would not take a long time for making its decision because the leaders have been sharing their thoughts all along.

 

Political observers believe the group has been approaching former MPs of various parties to convince them to join the group, which would in turn eventually join the right-wing Palang Pracharat Party that is known to support the junta.

The two other leaders or "friends" among the Sam Mitr trio are Deputy Prime Minister Somkid Jatusripitak and former transport minister Suriya Juangroongruangkit.

What a farce! The Sam Mitr Group keeping everyone in suspense about their future plans. PM Prayut being coy and holding back about his future political plans. 

Blind Freddie knows what's going to happen. Who do these children think they are fooling; the grown-ups? 

 

It´s hillaroius! Who in the whole wide world is Sam Mitr Group??? Influentual group?? The people in this country have no clue about what democracy means. That means you are free to wote for what you think is the right choice. Not follow the lead of influental groups.

Then came the next question. How is anybody going to be able to interest a people thast votes for the one that gives them most money for their votes, for what is really the right and sensible choice. Try to interest the common thai person in polotics and what that means and how it works. Come on, let´s go! The laughing party is around the corner.
