According to Parliament President Wan Muhammad Noor Matha, the political climate will probably rise this year as the public’s distrust of the government’s ability to deal with the financial situation will decline. This will likely lead to a stronger social strength.
As the Pheu Thai Party-led state is now approaching the end of its four-year word, he claimed, a number of financial problems have remained unresolved.
According to Mr. Wan, this situation may prevent this government from completing its term when combined with the more heated political environment that is typical in any government’s early years.
The state might be able to hold onto power until the close of its career, he said,” but if the government could in the months to come solve these issues well so that many people feel relieved and get happy.”
He said,” This mainly depends on how the government addresses these economic issues.”
Mr. Wan claimed that unlike in previous governments, he has observed advancements in the behavior of the majority of present parliamentarians as they carry out their duties in the halls.
They have shown constructive criticism abilities and are well-prepared for conversations, he said, noting that there hasn’t been an adjournment of political sessions in the past year, which is another encouraging sign.
” Finally, members of the public will continue to have faith in congress and choose it over other means of resolving any issues,” he said.
More conversations, either common versions or no-confidence types, are expected later this season, which in his mind isn’t strange, he said.
Women’s Party leader Natthaphong Ruengpanyawut, in his power as the opposition leader, said a movement may be submitted to obtain a reprimand argument against the state, which is expected to come in March.
He acknowledged that the opposition under his leadership may have failed to do enough to maintain checks and balances over the past four months, instead focusing primarily on passing laws that are essential, especially those that relate to constitutional rewriting.
From now on, the authorities may be facing tougher investigation, he said.
Deputy Prime Minister Phumtham Wechayachai, however, expressed his optimism that the government will be able to function until the last day of its name, in spite of any current and future challenges.
He made reference to issues like the controversy over the Memorandum of Understanding ( MoU) on maritime claims in the Gulf of Thailand in 2001, and the government’s anticipated anticipated anticipated return to former prime minister Yingluck Shinawatra as a future major challenge.
Yingluck fled the country in 2017, just before the Supreme Court handed her a five-year sentence for attempting to stop corn profits, one of the country’s most important bone cases, worth hundreds of billions of ringgit.
Some political observers fear that if Yingluck reapplies to Thailand and is granted privileges comparable to those that her brother Thaksin Shinawatra reportedly received upon his return on August 22, 2023 until his launch on probation, it could spark new social unrest.
” We would not have said we had fully serve our four-year term if I knew there would be political turmoil and a new military revolution,” said Mr. Phumtham, who is also the defense minister.
” I think we may find a way out of any problems if we understand them, get calm, and work for it,” he said.
When asked why Thaksin, who is considered the de facto leader of Pheu Thai, appeared to be very comfortable when he claimed earlier that there would never be a early dissolution of parliament, Mr. Phumtham responded that this was because this government didn’t think there would be any issues that might lead to such a breakdown.
If Yingluck is to return as speculated, she will definitely follow the rules, which means there won’t be any excuse for anyone to use to justify a military coup to oust the government, said Mr Phumtham.
Yingluck wished for everyone to have a better year this year by posting a message on her Facebook page yesterday. She wished all people to have good health, a strong mind and success in all endeavours.
