Political parties to be invited for discussions on reconciliation

SEVERAL groups – including political parties – will be invited for talks on reconciliation next month, said Peerasak Porjit, vice president of the National Legislative Assembly Sunday.

Peerasak, part of the new reconciliation preparation committee chaired by Deputy Prime Minister Prawit Wongsuwan, said Prawit wished to see the reconciliation work expedited and achieve success as soon as possible.
Because if it fails, it could affect the efforts on other works including reform, he said.
He said concerned groups – at least six or seven of them – would be invited to talk on issues of importance for the country to help solve the matters by finding a common ground to move the nation forward together. Major points of difference, including the amnesty issue, will not be discussed during the meetings, he said.
