Abhisit Jabs Kla Party with 58 Votes, No One Courting Them
Abhisit Vejjajiva, leader of the Democrat Party, is not closing the door on joining the government and is prepared to receive a call from Bhumjaithai Party. He asserts he is not desperate and can function effectively in either opposition or government roles. Noting that the Kla Party has 58 votes with no party actively courting them, he suggests the current government should be cautious about overconfidence. He emphasized that any potential coalition participation depends on clear conditions: no involvement of the Kla Party, no hidden financial influences, no interference, and no attempts to create division. When asked about potential spiritual leadership interference, Abhisit stated that governmental administration must remain uncompromised. Analyzing the current political landscape, Abhisit noted that Bhumjaithai Party has a stable majority without Kla Party, with over 290 parliamentary seats compared to the opposition's 210. He suggested the potential interest in Kla Party might be to prevent Pheu Thai Party from creating instability. His first priority, if involved in politics, would be to investigate ministers with potential ethical issues, emphasizing this is not about political destruction but maintaining political standards.
