[color:red]All parties called to end conflicts before Dec 5.![/color]

 

Military leaders called on the feuding parties on Monday to end their dispute before His Majesty the King's birthday on Friday to show their sincere respect to the monarch.

General Apichart Phenkitti, the permanent secretary for defence, said that he appealed for those involved in the ongoing political conflict to settle their differences before the King's birthday.

 

Air Force commander-in-chief ACM Itthiporn Supawong said the feuding sides should not allow their conflict to worsen that would cause sorrow for the King.

 

"The royal birthday is near and everybody should think of peace and His Majesty the King. People say they love the King and they should think twice before doing anything that would let him down. Don't allow the conflict to expand or lead to some incident that would cause sorrow on this auspicious occasion," said the Air Force chief.

 

Itthiporn also called for respect to courts of justice, particularly over the judgement expected later this week about the electoral fraud cases against three coalition parties.

 

"If the power of the judiciary is not respected, there will be confusion. If the rules and court judgements are not followed, some decisive measures must be taken," he said.

 

His comment followed a threat by pro-government groups to gather outside the Constitutional Court tomorrow, when judgement on the cases is expected to be read.

 

The Air Force chief yesterday also reiterated a recent call by military commanders for Prime Minister Somchai Wongsawat to dissolve the House of Representatives as a way out of the current conflict.

 

"With the current situation, there are difficulties for the country to go ahead. The government can't continue to stay above the conflict because the country will be at a stand-still. It's better to return the power to the people in a democratic way," he said.

[color:red]Chaturon calls on PM to quit[/color]

 

Prime Minister Somchai Wongsawat should step down so a new government can be formed before the People Power Party is disbanded, banned Thai Rak Thai Party executive Chaturon Chaisang advised Monday.

"Action should be taken before the party is dissolved so MPs have the chance to regroup and the country's administration is not disrupted," he said.

 

Chaturon said it was a foregone conclusion that the Constitution Court would disband the PPP, though repercussions from the dissolution of this party would be worse than what happened after Thai Rak Thai was disbanded.

 

He called upon pro-government crowds to cancel their plan to rally outside the High Court today, saying that the demonstration might backfire and pave the way for a coup. The case will be brought to an end today, and the pro-government group wanted to protest against any unfavourable verdict.

 

In addition, he said, the Constitution had several provisions that could be manipulated to the pave way for a dictatorship, adding that some of the government's opponents, particularly the People's Alliance of Democracy, wanted to do just that.

He went on to say that he was against the idea of forming a national unity government because it would infringe upon the principles of democracy, because installing a non-elected government was against the Constitution.

 

Chaturon advised Somchai and the coalition leaders to preempt the dissolution and have a new government in place before the party is dissolved, adding that several PPP MPs were receptive to this idea.

 

With regards to speculation that Privy Councillor Palakorn Suwannarat might be made the prime minister of a non-elected government, he said disagreed with any attempts to tamper with the electoral process.
