People's Alliance Not Worried About Coup
UPDATE : 27 November 2008
 






Ruling MPs have vowed to disclose a list of companies that provide financial support for the anti-government protest by the People's Alliance for Democracy.

Meanwhile, a key leader of the anti-government group insists that the group is not worried about speculation of a military coup.


Two core leaders of the People's Alliance for Democracy or PAD, Major General Chamlong Srimuang and Somsak Kosaisuk said at the rally site at Don Muang Airport that the anti-government group fears nothing, but declined to comment on speculations that the Army will stage a coup.

The PAD leaders insisted the group's stance against the government and charter revision will remain unchanged regardless what happens.

They said the person selected to run the country must be honest and sincere, so social reconciliation can commence.

Chamlong and Somsak also urged the Director of the Airports Authority of Thailand to help clarify to the people that the cause of the current economic downturn is not the PAD's blockade of airports, but the government's poor performance.

As for the court's injunction against the PAD's rally at Suvarnabhumi Airport, the PAD's core leader claimed they have yet to receive the court order, but said the group will appeal the ruling.

MPs from ruling coalition parties led by Pathumthani MP from the Chart Thai Party, Ekapod Panyaem, released a statement asking those opposed to the PAD rally and the military coup to wear red shirts to express their stance against such moves.

The group also advised the people to boycott products and services from the companies that back the PAD's movements.

Eakapoj said ruling MPs will disclose a list of people and companies that provide financial support for the PAD's moves soon.
