Minister of the Office of the Prime Minister, Tewan Liptapallop informed the meeting that the meeting on December 4 should be harmonious to prevent an attack by the opposition.
Prime Minister replied, “We are a coalition government. You cannot do everything you want here.”
Interior Minister, Anupong Paochinda was harsher in his response, saying: “Previously, when the Democrat Party was the government, I helped you to manage national affairs. Now that you are part of government, why don’t you act appropriately in accordance with the current situation?”
Deputy Minister, Somkid Jatusripitak added that the issue was crucial to the continued functioning of government and the Democrat Party should not veto it.
During the 11am break, the Prime Minister held a meeting with Finance Minister, Uttama Saowanayon, Industry Minister, Suriya Juangroongruangkit, Education Minister, Nataphol Teepsuwan, and Minister of Social Development and Human Security, Juti Krairerk.
