Flashermac Posted November 28, 2013 Report Share Posted November 28, 2013 Education Minister Chaturon Chaisang has admitted that the ruling Pheu Thai party is facing a dilemma regarding to the shadow of former prime minister Thaksin Shinawatra over the government. In his special interview with BBC, Chaturon said the Pheu Thai would have to find a way to balance Thaksin's influence over the Cabinet. "The party will need to find some balance in this," Chaturon, who was acting leader of the Thai Rak Thai part when it was dissolved, told BBC. "They will need to make it clear that whoever is going to be prime minister can show that they have independence and can make a decision on their own." Critics and the anti-Thasksin side allege that Prime Minister, Yingluck Shinawatra is only Thaksin's puppet. But Chaturon said Yingluck "is trying to work very hard to show independence from her brother". Chaturon said the on-going protests would not lead to a coup, but he qualified it by saying "in my experience a coup can take place any time" http://www.nationmul...n-30220791.html.
