Jessada” urges society that he has allowed “Thaksin” to act too much. He sees it as a violation of the royal command. He does not accept responsibility and punishment but still works in politics. He points out that the election results for the president of the Pathum Thani Provincial Administrative Organization reflect that politics has no true friends or permanent enemies. He says it is a matter of “the chicken sees the snake’s feet and the snake sees the chicken’s breasts.” He asks the people of Pathum Thani, if they think that “Uncle Chan and Big Jazz” are both useless, why don’t they abstain from voting and sweep these people out? He believes that this will be a model for other localities throughout the country.
Mr. Jessada Tonawanik, President of the Law Faculty of Asia Graduate School, gave an interview about the election results for the president of the Pathum Thani Provincial Administrative Organization (PAO) in which Mr. Chan Phuangphet, a candidate from the Pheu Thai Party, defeated Pol. Lt. Gen.
Kamronwit Toopkrachang, who ran as an independent. He said that if we look at the election results, first of all, in politics, there are no permanent friends or enemies. You can’t trust anyone. Mr. Thaksin Shinawatra, the former Prime Minister, said that he didn’t know Pol. Lt. Gen. Kamronwit, and then they supported each other at first, and then supported another person. There are many interconnected contexts. He doesn’t know what the people of Pathum Thani will think. He’s even wondering why they didn’t recount the votes from the beginning. He doesn’t know who will vote for them after the recount. Or maybe it’s a chicken seeing the snake’s feet and a snake seeing the chicken’s breasts, meaning no one is better than the other. Both the people called ‘Uncle Chan’ and ‘Big Jazz’ may be equal. So it becomes a matter of no one being better than anyone else, and it will be reflected on other PAOs. This will be a context of fighting like this. In the end, what will the people gain?
‘People barely get anything. It
‘s a fight between those in power. In the end, those in power go to seize the benefits in the province. Those benefits will go to the sub-district administrative organizations and then link back to the Ministry of Interior, which is the provincial governor. And it’s still linked to the MPs. The reflection from Pathum Thani, you will see what the country will be like in the future,’ said Mr. Jessada.
When asked if the old power holders who regained votes like this would be a model for expansion to other areas where they had failed, Mr. Jessada asked back whether it was Mr. Thaksin, and said that our society has allowed Mr. Thaksin to act too much. For him, what Mr. Thaksin did was to disobey the royal command, not accept responsibility, not accept punishment, and not make himself useful to the country. If we still allow Mr. Thaksin to work in politics like this, the country will be in trouble and difficult to progress.
Mr. Chet emphasized that we must help each other to prevent this from happening. That’s wh
y he said he didn’t know what the people of Pathum Thani thought. In fact, if the people of Pathum Thani saw that both of them were no good, why didn’t they vote and not want to choose anyone and kicked both of them out and found new people to replace them, but they didn’t do anything? I hope that the people of other provinces will be aware of this issue.
“If there are not enough good people, you do not want to choose anyone. And sweeping all of these people out would be a better way,” said Mr. Jessada.-319.-Thai News Agency
