Government House, "Somkid" reveals that the president whipped the government to ask the Pheu Thai MP to do his duty at the House of Representatives and did not go to meet "Thaksin" in Chiang Mai, ignoring the opposition's intention to raise it as a discussion issue. Looks like it's normal. If you agree with the government Probably not the opposition. Mr. Somkid Chueakong, Deputy Secretary-General to the Prime Minister for Political Affairs, discussed the case of Pheu Thai Party MPs going to Chiang Mai Province on March 14-15 to meet Mr. Thaksin. Shinawatra, former prime minister or not, yesterday (March 11) held a meeting of government whips. Mr. Wisut Chainarun, chairman of government whips, asked government MPs. Because there will be a vote at the council meeting this Wednesday and Thursday. Everyone has a main duty in the council. Therefore, I emphasize that I cannot go on March 14th. 'This evening there will be a Pheu Thai Party meeting. Will tell party MPs not to travel to Chiang Mai Province. Ask for cooperation I don't want the council's work to be a problem because there will be important laws. which will be voted on in many sections But there wouldn't be a problem,' Mr. Somkid said. When asked how the opposition viewed Mr. Thaksin's trip to Chiang Mai Province. It is a political matter. Mr. Somkid said that it depends on how you look at it. But one thing that Mr. Thaksin went to was that he wanted to pay respects to his ancestors. Each person has people who love and people who don't. As far as I know, I have not made any appointments with any faculty or groups. Viewed as a more personal matter Because Mr. Thaksin has not seen his relatives for 17-18 years, this is normal. It's not a political issue. As for the case where the opposition may raise Mr. Thaksin's issue for general discussion in accordance with Section 152, Mr. Somkid said it is normal for the opposition to debate. Because if the opposition agrees with the government, it probably isn't the opposition. It's his duty. Whether people believe or not is another issue. He will debate, no problem. We can already answer this. Tomorrow (March 13) in the afternoon there will be a joint meeting between the government and the opposition. To find a conclusion about the date and time frame for general discussion. Source: Thai News Agency
