It is quite interesting that the People's Alliance for Democracy is trying to use the Preah Vihear temple issue to mobilise its supporters to demonstrate against the Abhisit Vejjajiva administration for daring to prosecute PAD leaders, noted a Post Today writer.
What has happened between the Democrat Party and the PAD? They were allies when the party was in opposition during the Samak Sundaravej and Somchai Wongsawat administrations. Some Democrat MPs even attended the PAD's marathon rally and spoke on stage.
Time has passed since the good old days for PAD. The Democrat Party now leads the five-party coalition government and after being accused by the red shirts of practising double standards by re fusing to prosecute the yellow shirts, the government has begun to speed up the cases by appointing assistant police chief Somyot Phumphanmuang to supervise charges over the yellow shirts' seizure of Don Mueang and Suvarnabhumi airports during the Somchai administration.
