Phalang Pracharath Party MPs were to propose to Parliament a motion considering the opinion of students who are protesting against the government at the moment, Energy Minister Sontirat Sontijirawong said.

 

He said it would be a good opportunity to exchange ideas as it was Palang Pracharath Party’s intention to ease conflicts.

 

Democrat Party MP Issara Sereewatthanawut filed a letter with Chuan Leekpai, National Assembly President and House of Representatives Speaker, on February 27 proposing a motion to establish an extraordinary commission to give students the opportunity to directly participate in Parliament “to adjust injustice” in society.

 

He said at least one representative from each academic institution should participate in Parliament. This approach would result in a less negative effect on the government and more political tranquility.

 

Until now, students at 36 academic institutions have gathered in political protests, defying the pro-military government.

They don't want to send one repräsentative from each academic institution to get brainwashed.

 

They want the Military Junta gone. Is that so difficult to understand?

" To adjust injustice ? " Why not try to eliminate it completely ...?

Give anyone a voice other than the un-elected might be a good start.

I think people are sick to death of tranquility and inaction offered by the Thai military.   They want a future.  The negative effect is due to a coup and poor governance there after.  

 

The EEC is not going to do much of anything for all of Thailand, just make some hiso's and military men rich.

Indeed. No need to give them a "voice".

 

Just give them a... ballot !

 

That WILL BE RESPECTED (AKA do not "dissolve" the party for which they vote because you feel threatened in your dirty white uniform).

All the students will be getting is a gun to their head and a knock on their doors a'la Ja New

How can you give back what you've just taken away?

Invite a handful of students to come and endlessly talk for years while saying to the masses, no need to protest anymore?

That won't work any more... your time is coming to an end!
