PAD mass protest special coverage
Sondhi: Govt did not listen to charter warnings
(BangkokPost.com) - People’s Alliance for Democracy (PAD) leader Sondhi Limthongkul said the purpose of the mass anti-government rally is to stop the government from amending the 2007 constitution, as changes to some articles could benefit deposed prime minister Thaksin Shinawatra.
Mr Sondhi said the majority of Thai people already warned the government about charter amendments, but it did not listen. Instead, the government tried different ways to amend it, and some state officials were unfairly transferred, Mr Sondhi claimed.
The anti-government group leader said its demonstrations and activities are not terrorist or violent acts, but they are acts of civil disobedience for the good of Thai politics.
He added that if the next administration does not heed to the public voices, he will stage a gathering again.
He said he does not prefer any political party, but the Democrat party should set up the next government as it is less evil than the People Power party.
Using Law and rules for their own benefit, very similar to the way an island located south of their country has done. If they are not capable, they use law to justify their existence. There are so many leaders to follow but they choose a sinkie one. Many Thais dislike sinkieness i guess.
