Bangkok: Spokesperson points out that "Wan Nor" paid respects to "Thaksin" because they had worked together before. Wan Nor" sends a spokesman to explain the withdrawal of the motion of "MP Pu-at" because he has already turned himself in. He pointed out that it is in accordance with the constitution and the rules of the parliament meeting. He revealed that "Wan Nor" paid respect to "Thaksin" because they had worked together before. It is not related to the position of the Speaker of the House, which must remain neutral anyway.
According to Thai News Agency, Mr. Kampee Dithakorn, spokesman for the Speaker of the House of Representatives, explained the case of a column in a media outlet that wrote about the incompetence of Mr. Wan Muhammad Noor Matha, the Speaker of the House, regarding the behavior of an MP who raped a foreigner. He said that when the House received the case of wrongdoing, it had to be presented to the House meeting to vote to suspend him from performing his duties. However, after it was included in the meeting agenda, the Speaker received a letter from the police station stating that the MP had turned himself in. Therefore, the Speaker informed the House meeting that this motion would not be continued, which was in accordance with the constitution and the House meeting regulations continuously. He never violated the constitution or the meeting regulations. Everything was a resolution of the House meeting. The Speaker's power is to be a neutral person who will take action without favoring anyone and in accordance wi th the meeting regulations. Furthermore, when an MP is granted bail, we cannot do anything. However, if the government charges and requires prosecution to the point of imprisonment, we must return to the House again to discuss our opinions. This is especially true during the House meeting to allow or not allow officials to proceed. At the same time, I would like to ask the columnist because it distorts the facts and causes the public to misunderstand. This kind of writing does not take into account the constitution and the rules of the parliament meeting. I would like to ask you to correct the news because it affects the performance of the parliament president.
As for the social criticism of the news photo of Mr. Wan Muhammad Noor paying respect to Mr. Thaksin Shinawatra, the former Prime Minister who visited the South yesterday, Mr. Kampee said that it must be separated from the matter of performing duties because Mr. Wan Muhammad Noor used to work with Mr. Thaksin before. Paying respect is like a younger child paying respect to an older person. It is not wrong. But if Mr. Wan Muhammad Noor did something to an older person or someone with more power, it is considered wrong because the position of the Speaker of the House of Representatives requires neutrality.
When asked if he thought it was not unethical, Mr. Kampee said that there was no news that he had done anything outside the scope of his position. But if he had done something wrong, it would have been inappropriate. But today, he had not done anything inappropriate. He considered himself to be performing his duty to maintain the highest power of the three parties.
