"Chuan" reiterates his stance not to join the Pheu Thai government from the beginning, but does not object if it is a party resolution. Asks MPs to do their own job. If they are the opposition, they must truly oppose. Do not be afraid of not joining the government. Insists that they are not a spare party waiting to take over. Mr. Chuan Leekpai, Democrat Party-list MP, spoke about the news that the Democrat Party will join the government, saying that there is currently no party resolution. In the end, no matter what happens, the Democrat Party must respect the party resolution. He gave an example of joining the government with Gen. Prayut Chan-o-cha, saying that there were 2 conditions: amending the constitution and pushing for the income guarantee policy. Mr. Chuan also complained that there has been no resolution yet on whether to join the government, but news reports have suggested that they are like a spare party waiting to be replaced, which has upset party supporters. He would like people to distingui sh between the party's behavior and the behavior of some people. He personally would not comment on what conditions should be imposed if the Democrats really join the government, as he is not a party executive. He only has a personal stance that he will not join from the beginning because he does not want to be condemned as betraying the people because he campaigned, which resulted in Pheu Thai winning an overwhelming number of votes, but in the South, there was not a single MP. He personally believes that if they are in the opposition, they must truly perform their duties as the opposition. However, if they are in the opposition and are hesitant, they will not dare to make a decision when making any resolutions because they are afraid that they will be angry and will not let them join the government. Even though they have few MPs as an opposition, they can still benefit the people. Mr. Chuan also said that as an MP who performs legislative duties, he is ready to support anything good because if he does some thing wrong, it will be difficult to argue. The solution to prevent the party from being dissolved is not to do wrong or to amend the law in the future. It is not to dissolve the entire party, but to punish those who commit wrongdoings individually. Meanwhile, Mr. Chuan also reiterated that the political party system is like this. He has been here for 50 years and has never disobeyed the party's resolution. The party system has good things like this, which is why it has been around for so long. If it did not have some good things, the party would not be able to survive. The Democrat Party has been sued to be dissolved 2-3 times, with the Thai Rak Thai Party as the petitioner, but the Democrat Party was not dissolved. Instead, there was a unanimous resolution to dissolve the Thai Rak Thai Party. Someone submitted 30 million baht to the Constitutional Court's secretary. When people criticized the Constitutional Court's judges, he was one of the people who saw it as honest. Regarding the submission of 30 millio n baht, the lobbyist was a junior at Thammasat University. The first time, he offered 15 million baht, but was rejected, so he went to his house and offered 30 million baht. He did not want to mention it because it would affect the country's elders, and he still exists today and is a political business group. Reporters reported that Mr. Chuan gave an interview before entering the Democrat Party MP meeting, which was noticeable that today, after the MPs who were party leaders came to talk with the party leader, no one returned to join the party meeting.
