Wissanu warns of political strife in wake of draft charter, election
Play
THE GOVERNMENT is concerned that political troubles might arise ahead of the charter referendum and could intensify afterwards, driven by a combination of factors, Deputy Prime Minister Wissanu Krea-ngam conceded Monday.
He said the government was concerned about the possibility, but he believed that before the referendum, reaction could still be held in control. This is because there were no other reasons behind the doubt but dissatisfaction against the new charter, he added.
However, it was anticipated that disagreement and trouble could intensify after an enactment of the new constitution and after an election.
They could result from various sources, including dissatisfaction with the charter itself, the election, or the new government, among others. So any these eventualities could be frustrating and hard to manage, he said.
