On September 14, Pita, the former leader of the defunct Thailand Forward Party, spoke about the views of Thailand Prime Minister Petuntan, who had recently mentioned at the policy reading session of the Thailand Parliament, on the relationship between the ruling party and the opposition and the idea that he did not want the opposition to become hostile.
Pita said he had recently met Thailand's health minister, Songsa, in Phitsanulok, but the two had not spoken much, but he wanted to tell each other that they were rivals rather than enemies.
Pita mentioned that as far as he knew, some of the rivals who had been hostile to each other for 20 years were now able to shake hands and form a government together, while the People's Power Party, led by Prayi, was sidelined.
For 20 years, the Democratic Party of Thailand, which has been regarded as an enemy of the Pheu Thai Party, recently joined the ruling party camp and won a seat in the cabinet. This can be called the reconciliation of the elites, because they do not want to change the original political structure, they are deeply sympathetic to those who once supported them, and they want to find solutions, such as changing the law and breaking down polarization in a real sense, which is what the former Kadima Party has tried to do.
