Former Red Shirt Leaders Burn Shirts and DVDs in Protest against Thai Pheu Party
A group of former red shirt leaders, who were previously associated with the United Front for Democracy to Drive Dictatorship (UDD) in the Chiang Rai Province area, gathered on August 13 in front of the King Meng Rai the Great Monument in Chiang Rai Province. The group, consisting of about 10 individuals including Mr. Chirachot Bhumisitpong, Lt. Prapan Kaewmoon, and Ms. Puttachart Kotikaew, participated in activities against the Thai Pheu Party and their cooperation with the former coalition government in forming a joint government with parties such as the Bhumjaithai Party and Parti Palang Pracharat. As a symbol of their disagreement with the establishment of this joint government, they cut holy strings attached to Thai Pheu Party stickers using an ancient knife.
Furthermore, the group displayed red shirts worn during their past political movements under the UDD name, along with a sign that questioned their loyalty to the Thai Pheu Party. Many of the shirts depicted pictures of Thaksin and Yingluck Shinawatra, former Prime Ministers and brothers. They proceeded to cut these shirts using an ancient sword and piled up Thaksin DVDs, which they stomped on before burning them all. A small sound system was used to express their dissatisfaction with the actions of the Thai Pheu Party.
Chirachot emphasized that the red shirts have always supported Thai Pheu Party, as it was the successor to the Rak Thai Party and the People’s Power Party. For nearly 20 years, they have shown their support, even during the last election. In the past, they have made significant sacrifices, including camping on the streets and enduring challenging conditions to demand democracy and support Prime Minister Thaksin and Prime Minister Yingluck. Tragically, some even lost their lives during their journey from Chiang Rai to Bangkok for a rally. However, they feel betrayed by the Thai Pheu Party, which has formed alliances with other political parties despite objections from the people.
The red shirt movement originally arose as a response to different political factions, including the yellow pole, red pole, dictatorship pole, and democracy pole, created by various politicians. The red shirts initially aligned themselves with the movement supporting democracy. This sudden change by the Thai Pheu Party has been met with disappointment and disapproval from the people, including residents of Chiang Rai. Many individuals question the authenticity of their commitment to the red shirt cause, suggesting that they have deviated from their original mission. Chirachot clarified that their movement is not aligned with any particular political party, as he made a solemn vow in front of the King Meng Rai the Great Monument.
Putthachat, another former red shirt leader, displayed a UDD card she had created when Mr. Nuttawut Saikua and Mr. Jatuporn Phromphan were leading figures. She expressed her long-standing support for the Thai Pheu Party and her dissatisfaction with their decision to join forces with the dictatorship, leading her to break away and withdraw her support. Although the Thai Pheu Party claims to bridge political polarities, Putthachat argues that democracy and dictatorship are fundamentally incompatible. She also called on Dr. Chonnan Srikaew, the leader of the Thai Pheu Party, to step down, questioning whether the party’s recent actions hold any hope for the people’s aspirations.
Don’t burn ghosts! Purebred UDD, Chiang Rai Yuya, scheduled for Thailand, switched to polarity They both stepped forward and burned red shirts, Thaksin DVDs for Dr. Chon Nan Khai Kok
On August 13, in the courtyard in front of King Meng Rai the Great Monument, Pho Khun Intersection, Mueang Chiang Rai District, Chiang Rai Province, a group of red shirt people who used to move under the name of the United Front for Democracy to Drive Dictatorship (UDD) in the Chiang Rai Province area, about 10 people, all of them former leaders such as Mr. Chirachot Bhumisitpong, Lt. Prapan Kaewmoon, Ms. Puttachart Kotikaew, etc., went to do activities against Thai Pheu Party, to cooperate with the former coalition government to form a government The activities included party names such as Bhumjaithai Party. Parti Palang Pracharat and 2 uncles come with a string of holy strings attached to Parti Thai Pheu stickers. Before using an ancient knife to cut it as a sign of disagreement with the establishment of the joint government
In addition, a red shirt worn when participating in political movements under the name UDD in the past was hung together with a sign that read: “Plaid Thai Pheua, who is it for?” Many shirts have pictures of Thaksin and Ms. Yingluck Shinawatra, two brothers who are former Prime Ministers Then bring all the shirts to cut with an ancient sword according to belief and bring a DVD of Mr. karma. Thaksin to pile up and use his feet before burning them all. During that time, a small sound system was used to express dissatisfaction with the actions of Plaid Thai Pheu.
Chirachot said that Mr. The Red Shirts have always supported Plaid Thai Pheu. Because it was the Rak Thai Thai Party and the People’s Power Party Only he has supported it for about 20 years, even the last election we elected. After in the past, they had been collected to the point of sleeping in the middle of the road with the soil to eat in the sand. In order to demand democracy and help Prime Minister Thaksin and Prime Minister Yingluck, some even lost their lives as Chiang Rai residents traveled to Bangkok to rally. Then the car crashed into a tree, killing 5 people, and to this day there has been no justice. But it seems that the Pheu Thai Party has come back and slapped the red shirt people in the face, which was considered an act unrelated to the people, despite the fact that more than 25 million people voted more than 25 million votes. But he came back to participate with the Kao Farang Party and turned to join other political parties despite the protests of the people but they did not obey
“Previously, there was a yellow pole, a red pole, a dictatorship pole, and a democracy pole. Which politicians are all created Then the red shirts follow to support. There is a clear separation When the people had walked along that path, the last day had turned around like this, which was unacceptable. Many people in many states cannot accept it, including Chiang Rai. We have people who say it’s not really red, it’s a somber lob, a somber lob Actually, I’ve been fighting for 20 years since I was part of the Thai Rak Thai Party . The People’s Power Party until the arrival of the Thai Pheu Party with the Kao Klai Party, which has just been established for a few years. It is not to say that we are doing it for the Progressive Party,” said Mr. Chirachot. I swear before King Meng Rai the Great Monument that his movement is definitely not of any political party.
On Ms Putthachat’s side, she brought the UDD card she had made at the time when Mr Nuttawut Saikua and Mr Jatuporn Phromphan were leading actors and announced that they had long supported Plaid Thai Pheu. and very dissatisfied with Plaid Thai Pheu leaving the Kao Far Party to join the dictatorship So, from now on, he will break away and will no longer support Plaid Thai Pheu. Although he claimed to break up the political polarity, he saw that he was wrong because in the past, the Red Shirts had lost more than 99 people, some were prosecuted in 3 individual cases, and there were not many cases were completed. therefore seeing that democracy and dictatorship are incompatible, therefore feeling very bad and encouraged Dr. Chonnan Srikaew, Pheu Thai Party leader, to resign as party leader And I wonder if the party is doing this in the hopes that someone can go back to their country?
