Pheu Thai claimed PM Abhisit misled the public in his speech

By NUPPOL SUVANSOMBUT

BANGKOK, 15 May 2011 (NNT)-Deputy Leader of the Pheu Thai Party, Prodprasob Surasawadee has dismissed claims by Prime Minister Abhisit Vejjajiva saying that the Pheu Thai Party will not be able to form the government even if it wins the majority vote.

He also denied another claim which the Prime Minister made during his political campaign in Ratchaburi province which stated that Pol Lieutenant Colonel Thaksin would be the sole commander of the Pheu Thai Party and that this would defeat the purpose of holding an election.

Mr. Prodprasob insisted that his party would not form the government if it failed to receive the votes it needed. However, if his party forms the government, Mr. Thaksin will be treated the same way as every one else. The Deputy Leader of the Pheu Thai Party said he was confident that his party would win over the Democrat Party by 40-50 seats.

''He also denied another claim which the Prime Minister made during his political campaign in Ratchaburi province which stated that Pol Lieutenant Colonel Thaksin would be the sole commander of the Pheu Thai Party''

does Deputy Leader of the Pheu Thai Party, Prodprasob Surasawadee have any sources for this denial?

"Thaksin thinks ....." Kind of hard to make a denial that it is all about Thaksin when that is your party slogan!

It seems for this particular PTP announcer it is somewhat hard to simply think.

Wait isn't THIS announcement misleading... why sure seems that way.

As to point 1, if they don't get 50.00001% or an actual majority,

'then they will need to barter for coalition partners, and that may be easier said than done. There seems to be a determination to make better partnership deals to any that PTP approaches. This is of course how it works here, the basic system has this corrupting element built into it. But first they need to edge out the Dems in a minority position. If they don't then there is no chance they can form a majority coalition.

Seems PTP pronouncements will pretty much say anything imagined at the moment to keep their end up, and stop that sinking feeling.
