Acting Democrat Party Leader and outgoing Prime Minister Abhisit Vejjajiva has denied commenting on his chance to return as party leader if the Democrat Party’s general assembly votes for him to maintain the post.
Mr Abhisit refused to answer a press query on whether or not he would accept to take the helm of the Democrat Party once again if reappointed in the party's meeting.
He said Democrat members should give first priority to the party’s interest rather than sticking to former individual connections. He then confirmed that he had no regrets for dissolving the house and that his party did not succeed in the election since he had showed his responsibility by resigning from the party’s top post.
Mr Abhisit hoped to see the new government speedily formed and expressed his appreciation that incoming Prime Minister Yingluck Shinawatra has allowed the political violence fact-finding panel chaired by Prof Dr Kanit Na Nakorn and appointed in his government to continue its operation.
The outgoing prime minister also suggested Ms Yingluck to be the prime minister of all Thai people, not just for her brother ex-Prime Minister Dr Thaksin and to solve economic problems before moving to the amnesty issue.
