Huge conflicting force have been at work in Thai
politics
in recent decades,particulary since a constitution draft
in
1997 although
that constitution modified in 2007,
Unprecedented pressure is being brought because of
hugh amount of corruption and malfeasance of holder
of political position by prime minister.
Thai mobs played their roll againt these,they are
basically
referring to a large crown of people with a non-violence
agenda meanwhile they sometimes produced some
violence.
Three major mobs since 2005 are
1.People’s Alliance for Democracy (PAD) or
The Yellow
Shirts.
2.United Front of
Democracy Againt Dictotorship (UDD)
or Red Shirts.
3.People’s Demonocratic Reform Committee (PDRC).
The Yellow Shirts was originally a coalition of
protester againt
Thaksin Shinnawatra the former prime minister of
Thaialnd.
Its leaders include Sondhi Limthongkul and Major General
Chamlong Srimuang.Their roll were in the Thai political
crisis
of 2005-2009 .Yellow Shirts announced to stop
their roll in 2013.
Red Shirts is a politicial pressure group apposed to
Yellow Shirts
and support Thaksin Shinnawatra.Red Shirts leader include
Jatuporn Prompan,Nattawut Saikua,Veera Musikapong and
Weng Tojirakarn.
Red Shirts are composed mostly of rural masses from
Northern
And North Thailand,of urban lower classes from Bangkok
and some intellectuals.
In April –May 2010 protests by Red Shirts turn violence,
There are many bombs and fired,protestors and government
officer were injured and died.Mr. Abhisit Vejjajiva
prime
minister at that time crackdown Red Shirts mob.But till
now under martial rule Red Shirts still quietly play
their roll in Thai politics.
PDRC is a political pressure proup set by former
Democrat Party
MP Suthep Thaugsuban aimed at removing the influence of
former prime minister Thaksin and Yingluck Shinawatra
from Thai politics.
The movement was supported by various orginazation
including
the Democrat
Party,student activist group,state worker’s union
and pro-military group.Whistle –blowing was the central
symbol of the protest.It formed on November 2013 and
paused
their roll when the coup seize the power.
Like Red Shirts ,PDRC is quietly play their roll under
martial rule.
The coup with martial rule try to seize the roll of Red
Shirts
and PDRC but this
is not the way to solve controversies in
Thai society.It only stop for a while and if the coup is
sticky
control there will be resistance till it expose again.
The controversies in Thai social is deep root,Thai
people were
classified by politicial view into Red Shirts and PDRC
clearly.
If we want to reconcile discrimination between Thai people,
The new constitution must be fair enough for the two
parties.
The continuous harmonious process is mostly need.
If Thai people can find accommodation among themselves
and we have a profound and creditable democracy this
will
lead us to live
together in peace again otherwise the controversies
and argument or
fighting between two parties will happen again
as I will say “Mob in Thailand ,the change agent will
never die”.
