Popular Post webfact Posted November 10, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted November 10, 2020 Chuan admits reconciliation panel will not include all sides By THE NATION Chuan Leekpai Parliament president Chuan Leekpai told press on Tuesday he had consulted Privy Councillor Surayud Chulanont and former PM Somchai Wongsawat about plans for a national reconciliation committee to resolve rising political conflict. Chuan said that Surayud, a former Army chief and post-2016 coup PM, declined to express an opinion on the topic. “However, he asked all sides to consider the community at large,” he added. Meanwhile Somchai agreed to do whatever was in the national interest. Chuan also said that the reconciliation panel would not consist of representatives from all sides of the conflict, as proposed by King Prajadhipok's Institute. The youth-led protest movement has already dismissed the panel as a waste of time and reiterated its demands for the PM’s resignation, dissolution of Parliament and monarchy reform. Chuan said the panel would represent as many sides as possible. Last week, the institute advised that the reconciliation committee take one of two forms – representatives from all sides of the conflict, or independent middlemen selected by different sides. Chuan said the second option was a possibility, and suitable middlemen were currently being approached. He said last week that the two proposed panel formats could be adjusted or merged, adding he would hold talks with stakeholders before making a final decision.

Then why bother to have a reconciliation panel? Ohh we will only consider people who are in agreement with us to be involved, bloody pathetic. 12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very hard to achieve reconciliation if you don't include all parties in the process as those not included will continue to create the problems that your trying to solve . What he is saying is that they are not important to him and therefore will not be included which is fairly typical thinking of a bureaucrat .

Think an angry teenager has a better idea than these useless politicians. They are just playing around on the tax payers money. It is just shameful. Thailand is lucky to have great kids. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mtls2005 Posted November 11, 2020 Share Posted November 11, 2020 Some army, some minions and a few dinosaurs. Seems like "all sides" to most? I love how the PtB mention "sides" as if there is any sort of equality, and when they really mean top and bottom. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
