Are the Democrats on the same page?
Play
As a Democrat, I have been disappointed with the party all these years. Yesterday, the fabulous leader, Abhisit, said the economy would be fine, but the Yingluck government must have flood plans.
Today, our almost fabulous deputy Democrat leader, Korn, says no, the economy is in trouble because of the high cost of living. Hey Fabulous and Almost as Fabulous, when are you both going to tell the same story? Your statements have always been in conflict ever since your coup-supported administration started. Are you not both in the same Democrat Party?
Your administration spent an enormous amount of time to get rid of anything Thaksin, but you shamelessly copied a lot of his ideas. Abhisit wants to keep his eyes on the high-speed train mega projects. Do you, Khun Korn, remember in 2010 when you opened a seminar to draw foreign investors; everyone in your administration was jockeying for a piece of the pie? Your administration survived so long because of the “mandate” and had to give all of the big portfolios to Newin and his gang. Plodprasod and the secretary of transportation, who has now skipped the country, were both under your administration.
I am not a fan of Thaksin, but keep putting his name back does not serve anything. You can get rid of the man, but you cannot get rid of the ideas. Try to get rid of OTOP and see what happens my lovely Democrat Party.
