Chuan tells senators not to be too anxious about safety during charter rewrite vote

By The Nation

 

Chuan Leekpai

 

House Speaker Chuan Leekpai has urged senators to not be too preoccupied with security issues after they filed an urgent letter seeking to discuss security measures during the parliamentary vote on the amendments.

 

The Secretariat of the Senate submitted a letter signed on November 10 to discuss security matters with its House counterpart before voting for amendments kick off in Parliament on Tuesday.

 

Pornpetch Wichitcholchai, president of the Senate, also called on fellow senator Pol Gen Adul Saengsingkaew, to preside over this urgent meeting and ensure security is in place to control the situation.

 

Chuan, meanwhile, responded to the letter with a note saying: “Understood. We did not overlook it, but do not remain too preoccupied. Monitor the Parliament as normal. Outside matters are the government’s responsibility.”

 

Urgent meetings on the Parliament’s security matters have never been held before because this matter is overseen by other organisations.

A government afraid of its people.   How refreshing.   Violence is wrong, and they should be able to go about their duties without fear.

Hold the meeting in Portland in the USA and then they would have the right to be scared!

Perhaps the senators would feel more comfortable in the meeting with water canons strategically parked out front.

So now we have the next excuse for another delay.

'The protesters might harm us!'

Aren't a lot of these senators former army and police? Real tough guys, huh?

What makes them feel afraid? Afraid of what, or whom? Do not challenge the grim reaper, was once said by someone more famous than me. The PM can appoint 250 more when the current Senators are gone....

Why? If everything they did was honest/legal/ and above board, they would have no reason to be afraid.
