BANGKOK: -- The reconciliation preparation committee is ready to submit the so-called social contract to the supreme body for national strategy, reform, and reconciliation chaired by Prime Minister Prayut Chan-o-cha. The supreme body is then expected to endorse it by Monday before introducing it to the public.

Maj-General Kongcheep Tantrawanich, chair of the committee’s sub panel on public relations, said the committee has completed public hearings on the draft and would slightly reword it before resubmitting it to the body for endorsement.

 

The so-called social contract is a result of a months-long effort to forge reconciliation among concerned parties. The government has invited political parties and groups, as well as some civil organisations, to share views about critical problems facing the country. The input is to be reflected in the contract, with the expectation that the final draft would find widespread agreement.

 

The general claimed that the social contract has been warmly welcomed by people in all regions where public hearings were held.

Prayut has so ordered that there will be agreement by the so-called Thai people.

Sure, what choice do they have other than comply, comply, comply ?   

A whole month of effort and everyone agrees with it ?
Surely a miracle has occurred !
