“Prasert” sees “Pichet-Cholnan” as just teasing in the parliament

Prasert" sees "Pichet - Chonlanan" arguing in the middle of the parliament as just teasing, saying that the two have been friends for a long time, throwing the question to the Chief Whip about the Pheu Thai MPs' split votes to reject the results of the study on the amnesty bill. Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Digital Economy and Society Prasert Jantarawongthong spoke about the case of Dr. Cholanat Srikaew, Nan MP for Pheu Thai Party, who stood up to protest and show his dissatisfaction and pointed at Mr. Pichet Chueamuangphan, First Deputy Speaker of the House of Representatives, during the House of Representatives meeting yesterday (October 24), saying that the two are friends and have been in the Pheu Thai Party for a long time. He believes that there is nothing in their hearts. In the House of Representatives, sometimes, opinions between MPs and the Speaker of the House during a meeting may have different opinions. "I think the two of them have been friends for a long time. They might have teased each other a bit," said Mr Prasit As for the pending issue of whether Dr. Cholanat might become the Deputy Speaker of the House at that time, Mr. Prasit believes that it is unlikely to be that issue. When asked whether he thought the situation led him or the poem led him, Mr Prasit said that it was probably more of a personal intimacy that made him dare to say that, and maybe it was a bit too much of a joke. As for the images that have come out that look like party members are having conflicts with each other, should the party leader or party leaders call them in for a discussion? Mr. Prasert said that he does not see them as having conflicts, but in the parliament, sometimes the opinions of the House Speaker and members may differ, and it is the members' right to express their opinions. The Speaker has a duty to control the meeting. In this matter, Mr. Wisut Chainarun, Chairman of the Government Coalition Coordination Committee (Government Whip), should know about this well and be able to understand both parties well. As for the incident where they pointed at each other, he did not know because he was not there. However, he asked his son, Mr. Phachon Chantharawongthong, MP for Nakhon Ratchasima, who was there, who only told him that there was an argument in the parliament meeting. As for whether the two will have to clear things up privately, Mr. Prasit stated that they normally talk to each other anyway and there is no conflict between them. As for the vote to accept the draft study results of the amnesty bill, which was chaired by Mr. Chusak Sirinil, Minister to the Prime Minister's Office in the capacity of the legal department of the Pheu Thai Party, the Pheu Thai Party meeting resolved to vote to accept the draft, but the results showed that more than a hundred Pheu Thai MPs did not agree. Mr. Prasert said that he asked the government whip chairman because he was not a member of the House of Representatives, nor was he a government whip, and did not see the incident clearly, so he could not answer.
