Ang Thong: "Anutin-Pharadon" confirmed that there will still be a parliamentary meeting next term, dismissing news of parliament being dissolved. Deputy Prime Minister and Deputy Speaker of the House of Representatives confirmed in unison that there will still be a meeting in the next session, dismissing news of the dissolution of the House after 'Phradon' made a final insinuation before the end of the session, saying that he was just easing the political atmosphere and reminding people to love each other.
According to Thai News Agency, Anutin Charnvirakul, Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Interior, as leader of the Bhumjaithai Party, traveled to Ang Thong Province to join the opening of the Songkran Festival and met with the Prisana Nanthakul family. Mr. Anutin said that Mr. Paradorn Prisana Nanthakul, Deputy Speaker of the House of Representatives, invited him to join the event. It was considered a visit and a traditional event in Ang Thong, Wiset Chai Chan District. Along the way, he saw people gradually returning to their hometowns. There was both happiness and smiles, even though the traffic was congested. If Thais travel domestically and not abroad, it will help the country's economy spread.
As for the accident report numbers of the Department of Disaster Prevention and Mitigation (DDPM), Mr. Anutin mentioned that from comparing daily statistics, it was found that they were lower than last year. He stated that while these statistics are not taken as the most crucial element, adherence to traffic laws and readiness to travel are essential. He emphasized the importance of not driving under the influence of alcohol and noted that secondary roads pose a greater concern than main roads. He pointed out that most accidents involve motorcycles, pickup trucks, and unroofed cars lacking safety measures like seat belts and helmets. Public cooperation remains critical in addressing these issues.
When questioned about his meeting with Mr. Somsak Prisananantakul regarding the draft bill on the establishment of a full-service entertainment complex, Mr. Anutin expressed that the trio, including Mr. Paradorn and Mr. Krawee Prisananantakul, were committed to serving the people and had earned the trust to be members of the House. He reiterated that in politics, the welfare of the country and its people is of utmost importance.
Further inquiries about Mr. Paradorn's statement before the parliamentary session's end led Mr. Anutin to encourage a focus away from politics, given the festive occasion of Songkran. He noted that Mr. Paradorn's comments were intended to lighten the atmosphere and promote unity and love among people. Nevertheless, Mr. Anutin confirmed the continuation of the parliamentary meetings, stating unequivocally, 'Yes, there will be.'
