Funny, funny, funny.

After a Sunday afternoon meeting of party executives and MPs, Democrat spokesman Buranaj Smutharaks told a press conference that the meeting agreed to the Democrat Party forming a new government and assigned party secretary-general Suthep Thaugsuban to gather names of one-third of all members of Parliament to formally ask that an extraordinary session of parliament open Monday morning to elect a new prime minister.

The spokesman said the party was concerned about group of critics who spread untruths that the army had a hand in setting up the new coalition government, charges that tarnished both the army's image and that of the parties.

Mr Somsak said ex-Chart Thai chief adviser Sanan Kachornprasart was sent to the press conference with the Democrat party on Saturday to support the Democrat's plan to set up the next government.

He said it could be possible that the Democrat party may nominate Maj-Gen Sanan to the prime minister's post, but it would not be likely at the moment.

Mr Somsak said he did not join the meeting between Democrat secretary-general Suthep Thuagsuban and national army chief Anupong Paojinda to discuss the political direction on Saturday.

Corruption free Democrats, who have no deal with either PAD or the Army. Although I am sure that some you do not associate terrorism with corruption. Corruption is only linked to stuff the PPP does. Closing an airport and causing a million people to lose their job for your political gain is OK, but avoiding paying income tax makes you the most corrupt unethical man alive.

Mr Newin was invited by the army to discuss ways to form a new government after the ruling PPP was dissolved by the Constitution Court for election fraud on Tuesday.

He was asked to abandon the remnants of the PPP and hook up with other parties to create a new government and prevent new political problems, the source said.

Unfortunately the new PPP have enough seats to form their own government so I think DEMS are moving a bit too soon.

Duplicate thread.
