Speaking to reporters after the meeting, Abhisit said Thanasak was worried about the political crisis and supported his efforts to try to find a solution for the country. "The supreme commander supports what I have been doing. He wants to see all sides joining hands to ease the situation," Abhisit said. "He feels that every effort that can solve the problems should be made. He agrees with me that political problems should be solved with significant input from politicians." Abhisit said he would meet the Election Commission Tuesday morning and would also meet with various groups to explain his proposal. He reiterated that the country's political crisis must be solved with reforms based on the charter's provisions. -- The Nation 2014-04-28 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Scamper Posted April 28, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted April 28, 2014 Abhisit's initiative is appearing more and more sensible by the hour. His efforts will likely be drowned out, however, by the louder ( and more erratic ) voices of Pheu Thai. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Costas2008 Posted April 28, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted April 28, 2014 Adhisit is worried more about his own political future, than his country's future. I'm very sad to say that but unfortunately is the truth. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I doubt that a sensible solution is needed at the moment.....I think a drastic solution is needed, not some weak compromises. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His party have never worried about that at all, as long as he has the military to put them in power so they can benefit from corruption. If he was really concerned about Thailand, he would come out and say he wants the people to have their say, not the joke that is the Thai military 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you'd bother to follow this situation you'd know he has a blueprint that he is takes to various functions. This blueprint isn't public yet. But you probably knew that, you just wanted to make some smart-azz comment.

The official response from PTP should be released shortly. Due to the time difference Surapong is having issues reaching the Dear Leader in New York.
