webfact Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 'Reconciliation a priority next year' The Nation The Pheu Thai Party is expected to designate national reconciliation as a top legislative priority next year, red-shirt leader Kwanchai Praipana said yesterday, arguing that all parties involved in the political turmoil would benefit. "The legislation on reconciliation will apply to all sides, unlike a pardon or the amnesty law," he said in reference to criticism that it appeared former prime minister Thaksin Shinawatra would be the sole beneficiary of a pardon, if granted. Kwanchai said Deputy Prime Minister Chalerm Yoobamrung would spearhead the reconciliation, which would cover all parties and individuals, including Democrats Abhisit Vejjajiva and Suthep Thaugsuban for their "involvement" in the 2010 bloodshed. He said the Pheu Thai-sponsored legislation would be based on a report by the House Committee on Reconciliation, led by Matubhum MP Sonthi Boonyaratglin. Commenting on a possible Cabinet reshuffle, he said it was high time ministerial changes took place. Kwanchai said he had heard Thaksin complaining about the incompetence of certain ministers. He claimed to have received overwhelming support for his campaign on the royalist red movement, the Daeng Rak Chao Group. He said he did not understand why certain red shirts would oppose his campaign after the Pheu Thai-led government had professed its royalist stand. Kwanchai also said he was puzzled why the government and the red shirts could not bring Thaksin home after coming to power. The red shirts in Udon Thani would provide a safe haven for Thaksin, he said. He voiced defiance against any attempt to enforce the former prime minister's two-year jail term. -- The Nation 2011-12-14 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ricardo Posted December 14, 2011 Share Posted December 14, 2011 he said it was high time ministerial changes took place After only four-and-a-half months ? Perhaps someone picked the wrong people ? he had heard Thaksin complaining about the incompetence of certain minsters So either DL's original decisions were wrong, or it was PM-Yingluck who really picked wrong-uns, which ? Wonder who he has in-mind for one of the positions available in any Reshuffle ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buchholz Posted December 14, 2011 Share Posted December 14, 2011 Red-Shirt Leader Kwanchai: Reconciliation A Priority Next Year Reconciliation as a priority for Red Shirts is as inaccurate as Kwanchai's last proclamation...

hellodolly Posted December 14, 2011 Share Posted December 14, 2011 True reconciliation will never happen as long as Thaksin draws breath. He is far to decisive a figure and not in the least interest in reconciliation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LuckyLew Posted December 14, 2011 Share Posted December 14, 2011 The definition of reconciliation for red shirts is obviously not the same as it is in Webster dictionary For red shirts reconciliation means bring on Taksin, get Taksin his money back and ket Taksin give all red shirts lots of money.

anon467367354 Posted December 14, 2011 Share Posted December 14, 2011 reconciliation = amnesty for all terrorists. Not reconciliation at all, nor will it do anything other than incite anger and more division. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rubl Posted December 14, 2011 Share Posted December 14, 2011 Did k. Kwanchai speak as Pheu Thai MP or as UDD leader when he said "the reconciliation, which would cover all parties and individuals, including Democrats Abhisit Vejjajiva and Suthep Thaugsuban for their "involvement" in the 2010 bloodshed." Note that if he really said ".... involvement in 2010 bloodshed" is suggest less reconciliatory thoughts. Still to my recollection it may be the first time a Pheu Thai MP and UDD leader mentions k. Abhisit/Suthep to be included, to be seen in which way included of course Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kimamey Posted December 14, 2011 Share Posted December 14, 2011 "He voiced defiance against any attempt to enforce the former prime minister's two-year jail term." So he's voicing defiance against Thaksin abiding by the law but he doesn't say why he should be allowed to flout the decision of the judiciary.
