"Phumtham" threw the question to "Big Pom" whether he had any concerns about not joining the vote for the "PM", saying he didn't dare ask, or he would be in a bad mood. Mr. Phumtham Vejjayachai, acting deputy prime minister and acting minister of commerce, as the acting prime minister, talked about the current political situation. Has there been any discussion with the Palang Pracharath Party? He said, 'I don't dare. I'll be in a bad mood.' Mr. Phumtham continued that he must ask Gen. Prawit Wongsuwan, the leader of the Palang Pracharath Party, whether he is still okay or not, and whether he is uncomfortable with anything. If there are problems in the party, it is a matter for the party leader to resolve the problems in the party until they are finished. When asked if he was bothered by Gen Prawit not going to vote for the new prime minister, Mr Phumtham said, 'Ask him. Did he not go vote because he didn't want to participate or did he think it was enough and then make a decision?'. Source: Thai News Ag ency
