Phumtham” is not worried 100 percent that “Thirayut” is suing “Thaksin-Pheu Thai” continuously, saying that changing the Prime Minister now is too cruel, saying that he does not value the social drama, hesitating from the media asking “Thaksin” to control or not, saying that he already knows, is it still not clear?
Mr. Phumtham Vejjayachai, Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Defense, mentioned the case where Mr. Thirayuth Suwannakasorn filed a complaint against Mr. Thaksin Shinawatra, the former Prime Minister, for his behavior of being a possessor and commander of the Pheu Thai Party for the power to administer the country and for his behavior before undermining the democratic regime with the King as head of state, saying that it should be handled according to the law. It is the right of the petitioner to proceed, while the court considers and makes a judgment. There are many cases that have been decided and dismissed. Don’t think about what it will be yet. Wait for the real results to come out first. T
he justice process is already working, but there are many people who act in a way that is not right and file lawsuits all the time. But if the law sees that it is right, then it should be handled. There is no problem. Wrong is wrong, right is right, there is no way to change it.
When asked if this would lead to the dissolution of the Pheu Thai Party, Mr. Phumtham said he was 1000% not worried. When asked again if he had read the 6 complaints and there was nothing he was worried about, Mr. Phumtham said he was not worried. He would file a complaint according to the process. If the court accepted the lawsuit, he would call the Pheu Thai Party to explain, that’s all. But right now, the court has not accepted the lawsuit. Don’t think too soon. Have some sympathy for the Pheu Thai Party.
Mr. Phumtham also mentioned the case of the dispute over the overlapping area of ??Koh Kood with Cambodia, which was raised as a complaint about domination by Mr. Thaksin Shinawatra, saying that he had heard about this all the t
ime. It depends on the reality. The issue of overlapping areas has been talked about for a long time and there is no conclusion yet. Let it be true and then talk about a clear conclusion. It would be better. He does not like speculation because speculation can be the worst when there may be no truth at all. It is unhealthy for the mind. Let’s look at the clear truth and see where the standard for handling this issue is. Pheu Thai Party is ready to answer all questions. Let the truth be seen and it is a question that is beyond the justice process.
When asked if the Pheu Thai Party has a plan to support the change of prime minister, Mr. Phumtham exclaimed, ‘He has only been in office for a month. Is it too cruel to ask for a change?’ When asked if Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Interior Anutin Charn Virakul brought Newin Chidchob to meet Thaksin, leading to rumors that the prime minister would be changed, he asked if he could confirm this, Nan Phumtham stated that he asked people not to speculate. Our d
uty is to reveal the truth. Speculations that go too far will cause problems. The prime minister has only been in office for a month, and the prime minister and the government have worked to their fullest potential. No one is thinking of canceling or changing the prime minister. There is no way to get a prime minister under Article 7 or Article 5. Today, I would like everyone to come together and encourage government agencies and the government that are working to resolve the country’s crisis better. As for what Anutin and Newin will talk about with Nan Thaksin, you have to ask Nan Newin and Nan Anutin because he does not know whether they are telling the truth or not, or where they talked. Even if Mr. Anutin comes out and says this or that, he does not know anything.
When asked if he had given encouragement to the Prime Minister who was being criticized for several issues, Mr. Phumtham said that there was no need to give encouragement. The Prime Minister was already strong and strong. When asked how he saw
the Prime Minister’s move causing drama, Mr. Phumtham said, “Well, this is the way society is. Therefore, you all should not give too much value to people who are too strict. I want you to use your discretion and help each other a little. The media will help a lot. It will prevent those who are really working from losing their courage.”
When asked if none of the six issues raised were sensitive enough to cause the Pheu Thai Party to seek a backup prime minister, Mr. Phumtham said no, because we do everything with care and in accordance with the law. As for some issues that are not related to the Pheu Thai Party, such as the matter of having dinner with Mr. Thaksin, it is a matter of people who talked about it. Mr. Newin had dinner with Mr. Thaksin, Mr. Newin must answer that it has nothing to do with the Pheu Thai Party at all.
When asked again whether Thaksin was controlling the Pheu Thai Party, Mr. Phumtham laughed and said, ‘I don’t have to answer that. I believe you already know,’ before ending the inte
