Mr Suriyasai Katasila, vice dean of the Social Innovative College of Rangsit University, said Sunday that Thaksin’s speech might be deemed as a violation of Sections 28-29 of the political party law which is liable to the dissolution of the Pheu Thai party in accordance with Section 92 of the law.
He said that the three sections are new and were designed to keep political parties independent and free in engaging in political activities in accordance with the wish of the parties and their members and not as a tool of money barons or vested interest groups as were the case in the past.
Parties and politicians who accept or boycott the new constitution must carefully read the content of the political party law otherwise they may end up with their parties being dissolved, said Suriyasai.
He noted that Thaksin’s image, his voice, and speech which he made on the occasion of the birthday of his sister, former prime minister Yingluck, last week has become a public knowledge and, as such, the EC must take a look into the case without anyone filing a complaint with the EC first.
In the speech, Thaksin said the Pheu Thai party would sweep clean all the seats in the Northeast in the next election and he criticized the former MPs who defected to the other parties.
