PAD won't block entry to parliament: Chamlong

People’s Alliance for Democracy (PAD) leader Chamlong Srimuang affirmed that the anti-government group will not deny access to the parliament on Tuesday in an attempt to obstruct the government from amending Article 291 of the 2007 Constitution.

Regarding the idea to hold a meeting with different sides to end violence, Maj-Gen Chamlong insisted the PAD supporters had never resorted to violent means, and its activities have been under the constitution. However, he said the group is ready to hold talks with all sides

He said the PAD agrees with the army’s announcement that it will take action against people who made statements against the royal institution.

In the case of certain senators who have allegedly received money to approve the charter drafting assembly’s establishment, Maj-Gen Chamlong said this shows that the government is still from an old political system that lacks righteousness, and there is a need for new politics as the PAD has proposed to members of the public.

Touching on the planned gathering of the pro-government United Front of Democracy Against Dictatorship (UDD) at Rajamangala National Stadium on November 1, he said it was not easy to mobilise ten of thousands of people to the gathering as even transportation and food alone are not easy tasks.

The PAD would pay close attention if the UDD moves their supporters to confront its supporters at Government House, he added.
