Sunisa defends the prime minister on charter amendment debacle



BANGKOK: -- Prime Minister Yingluck Shinawatra was not held accountable for the failed draft constitutional amendment which was ruled unconstitutional by the Constitution Court, said deputy government spokesperson Sunisa Lertpakavat Thursday.

Speaking in defence of the prime minister who is now placed under pressure to resign by the Democrats, Ms Sunisa argued that the draft was proposed by the MPs and senators and the government had nothing to do with it.

She also defended that the submission of the draft to the palace for Royal approval within 20 days after its passage through the parliament by the prime minister was a duty as required by the Constitution otherwise she would be held responsible for violating the charter.

Ms Sunisa pleaded with the Democrats and government’s opponents to stop pressuring the prime minister and to refrain from using this issue to defame the prime minister.

If the Democrats want to criticize the prime minister on this issue, they should do so in the parliament, she added.

The deputy government spokesperson also asked the Democrats to stop creating misunderstanding among the troops by spreading rumour that the Department of Special Investigation plan to take legal actions troops responsible for the crackdown of red-shirt protesters in May 2010.

Either I am missing a few screws up top or seriously does this woman even understand what she is saying? Nothing to do with the government but the MP's in total voted for it. Who the hell is the government if it is not the MP's and the PM. I guess she is a hireling of Yingluck so the pretty but lacking in the brain department is understandable. It certainly shows that Thailands issues are not just corruption but incompetence and no accountability.

No this woman is a Thaskin floosy, she wrote a couple of book about Thaksin while she was AWOL from the army. She has no qualifications for this position, but like to moan about the Dems.

It interesting to note she is also making this complaint at the end of her statement..........

"The deputy government spokesperson also asked the Democrats to stop creating misunderstanding among the troops by spreading rumour that the Department of Special Investigation plan to take legal actions troops responsible for the crackdown of red-shirt protesters in May 2010."

Another dumb blonde, Thai-style.

"If the democrats want to criticize the prime minister on this issue, they should do so in the parliament, she added."

That's provided the 'independent' Speaker changes his attitude, and actually lets them present their motions, after all !

Perhaps Khun Sunisa should write another laudatory book, "Yingluck Where Are You", to pass the time more-profitably ?

Deeply stupid on two levels. Firstly, insulting everyone's intelligence by saying that the government had nothing to do with it, and secondly, by saying that PTP and coalition MPs were somehow separate from the government.

Ms Sunisa pleaded with the Democrats and governments opponents to stop pressuring the prime minister

What on earth does she think the opposition is there for, if not to put pressure on the government and its prime minister?

Putting pressure on the prime minister is their job for goodness sake.

If the Democrats want to criticize the prime minister on this issue, they should do so in the parliament, she added.

The Prime Minister is barely ever there.

A"Deputy Government Spokesperson"! So much governance in this country and so little governing!

The PM defames her own reputation with every stupid, self-serving act, procedural incompetence and continuous protestations of ignorance.

The Shinawatra's seem to feel the US presidential system where the administration and legislature are completely separate is preferable to the Westminster model where they are one and the same. The PM needs to be reminded on a regular basis that she is not the head of state and before all an MP, elected by other MPs to head the government, and expected to attend parliament to put forward and defend her government's policies, instead of gadding around the planet on supposedly "state" visits and trade missions.

OMG! I've just spit my beer all my computer!

Forgive them, Oh Lord, for they know not what they do.

Frank saw this coming...

Sunisa came to prominence by taking an unauthorized leave of absence from the Army to visit Dr. Thaksin overseas and then wrote a totally kiss-ass book about the experience. Her reward is to be made a government spokesperson with no previous experience. And, of course, it shows.

I wonder if she thought that up all by herself. An intellect rivaled only by garden tools. Proof that evolution CAN go in reverse. Would lose a debate with a doorknob.

....best one of the day...thanks

But you guys are missing the point many Thais will not understand the system as it is set up and believe her as she is talking to Thais not to the brain trust at TV.

Not very realistic, as surely PM-La-La would have a colour-coordinated handbag, with her dress-sense ?

Cannot be PM/DM Yingluck - she not go parliament, she not influence senate, now she go Singapore.

<deleted> - just shows PTP still believe they can simply lie their way out of anything and spout any old nonsense.

Still, at least we can expect to hear of a cracking good rice deal negotiated to supply Singapore - who will of course want the details kept secret. They will probably support the Daweii development too - in the interests of fair competition.

If this was nothing to do with the government, as this clown claims, then why have the government said they will not accept the decision? Nothing to do with them, by their own admission. These idiots talk more and more contradictory drivel every day.

"Ms Sunisa argued that the draft was proposed by the MPs and senators and the government had nothing to do with it."

I see Thainess "I am not responsible for anything" is alive and well in the PTP.

Perhaps Ms Sunisa will do me a favour and tell me if the is anything the government does that PM Yingluck DOES have anything to do with? If not, then would it not make sense for her to resign anyway? Not because she has done anything wrong, but because she has not done anything at all, and is not responsible for anything either, so could therefore be considered obsolete.

Oh, and would someone please inform Ms Sunisa that the PTP MPs and the government is one and the same - give or take a few.

This woman makes Sarah Palin look smart.

'Ms Sunisa pleaded with the Democrats and government’s opponents to stop pressuring the prime minister and to refrain from using this issue to defame the prime minister'.

Talking about being on the defensive - this is like holding out a red rag to a bull.

The democrats are in danger of making her cry again!! She must feel like a pressure cooker with a jammed release valve!!

If these meanies are not careful she will have to cry again...

Oh, the humanity!

Her qualifications are that she is Thaksin's biographer (and rumored gik). A former Army LT that was discharged for being AWOL, while meeting with Thaksin in London.

No this woman is a Thaskin floosy, she wrote a couple of book about Thaksin while she was AWOL from the army. She has no qualifications for this position, but like to moan about the Dems.

hahaha... hadn't read this post before replying myself.

Anyway, just another example of someone sleeping with someone to get ahead and another example of unqualified people serving on the taxpayer's payroll. Something she shares with her boss, Yingluck.

Believe it or not she wasn't discharged from the military, she wasn't punished for going AWOL, just a warning and retains her rank and privileges...

The Prime Minister is going to require all those working for her to put out press releases attempting to be seen in a more favorable light. This gal, the Defence spokesman followed and there will be more to come in the next few days.The Proganda mill spokspeople of this government, have been working overtime for the past 2 years. It is apparent this program has also failed also, but that too is beyond recongization when your dealing with the mindset desplayed by those in charge.
