View Full Version : PM Samak gets Royal Nod!
Samak sharpens his spear
Published on January 24, 2008
People Power Party leader Samak Sundaravej, who is expected to become the next prime minister, took part yesterday in a ceremony aimed at enhancing his powers.
The ceremony was performed by Phra Thepphaowanavikrom, better known as Chaokhun Thongchai, a Buddhist monk from Wat Traimit who is well known for such ceremonies.
It took place at Samak's home in Bangkok's Nawamin area.
In addition to his sharp tongue and short temper, Samak is also known as a firm believer of the powers of a Buddha statuette called Phra Phairee Pinart (Enemy's Annihilation).
In confrontational situations, he is often seen carrying the statuette with him.
During his party's recent campaign rally in Bangkok, Samak brought with him a statue of Luang Por Chim, a Buddhist monk he reveres, in the belief that it would not rain at the rally. He was not disappointed.
A merit-making ceremony is planned for today at Samak's home in preparation for his receiving a royal command, a source said.
Some former government leaders are known to believe in superstition and took part in ceremonies supposed to help ward off evil spirits or defeat their enemies. They also often chose to enter their offices on the first day at work at auspicious times suggested by their monks or astrologers.

Parliament to select new PM this morning
(BangkokPost.com) –Yongyuth Tiyapairat will carry out his responsibilities as House Speaker for the first time today when parliament convenes to select the country’s new prime minister.
The open voting process, due to take place when MPs meet at 9:30 am this morning, will decide whether People Power party (PPP) leader Samak Sundaravej will be chosen as Thailand’s 25th prime minister as expected.
The only man contesting him is Democrat party leader Abhisit Vejjajiva.
The man who receives more than half the votes in the House, or 239, will immediately be named Thailand's new prime minister. His name will then be forwarded to His Majesty the King awaiting royal endorsement.

Little stands in the way of Samak
Published on January 28, 2008
The People Power Party expressed confidence yesterday about getting the full support of all coalition partners for Samak Sundaravej to be the next prime minister.
However, there was one sign of dissent. The Puea Pandin Party's Muslim members of Parliament from the deep South threatened not to back Samak, unless they receive a ministerial post with which they can address problems in the region.
PPP deputy leader Sompong Amornwiwat expected all coalition members, excluding the House speaker and his deputies, to vote in support of Samak at today's selection.
The vote is not a secret ballot.
Meanwhile, PPP spokesman Kuthep Saikrachang said after a party meeting yesterday that Samak had told members he was ready to lead the country, and intended to remain in office for a full term.
"As Samak volunteered to lead the PPP he said he would pursue the defunct Thai Rak Thai Party ideology. The soul of the Thai Rak Thai lives here now," Kuthep said.
The Cabinet, which will consist of both parliamentarians and technocrats, will be completed in the two days after Samak receives royal endorsement as prime minister, Kuthep said.
Samak invited members to his Bueng Kum district home to celebrate the endorsement.
Samak will have a weekly radio programme called "Talking to People Samak Style", similar to predecessor Thaksin Shinawatra. The show will be each Saturday, Kuthep said.
Samak will talk about his visions publicly for the first time on the radio programme, according to the spokesman.
Coalition partners yesterday promised support for Samak in today's selection.
Matchima Thipataya Party secretary-general Anongwan Thepsuthin said its nine members would vote for Samak.
Chart Thai member Assawin Wipoosiri said the party would toe the line and vote for Samak.
Ruam Jai Thai Chart Pattana made a similar promise. Party spokesman Naovarat Chanukul said its executive board yesterday agreed to instruct its members to vote for Samak.
Puea Pandin Party Sajjanupap faction leader and member for Narathiwat, Dr Waehadi Waedaoh, insisted that if the faction did not get a portfolio from which it could address problems in the South, it would not vote for Samak.
Party leader Suwit Khunkitti earlier made the Cabinet-post agreement for the faction, or a technocrat the faction wanted.
"It is the faction's ruling and not my personal stance. Our group won its seats on a campaign of solving violence in the South. We beat the Democrats in its stronghold. If we cannot get the important post, how can we help solve the problems there,'' he said.
He denied his group voted against Yongyuth Tiyapairat as House Speaker. "The three votes against Yongyuth were not us, for sure. I am a gentleman who keeps his word,'' he said.
Deputy House Speaker Somsak Kiatsuranant said the speaker and deputies agreed to alternately chair the House.
He will call a vote if the opposition wants to debate the qualifications of the next prime minister.
"I personally feel that is necessary, because Samak was voted for by the people. Although he's still fighting a court case, we should let the case proceed under justice,'' he said.

Pichet says debate necessary as it's uncertain that Samak will get PM's seat
Democrat Party MP Pichet Phanpichartkul reasoned that a debate before the voting of the prime minister is necessary because the current situation made it uncertain for People Power Party leader Samak Sundaravej would be elected by MPs as the next PM.
Pichet reasoned that the situation was different from 2004. In 2004, the Thai Rak Thai was the one-party government with an overwhelming majority while the current coalition has six partners.
Pichet added that the current Constitution does not prohibit MPs to vote against the party's line so coalition MPs might vote for Democrat Party leader Abhisit Vejjajiva as the next PM, or vice versa.
Pichet said he would like to hear the PM's policies on how to deal with the former Thai Rak Thai executives and the Assets Examination Committee or even legal cases against former prime minister Thaksin Shinawatra.

(BangkokPost.com) – Democrat party MP Pichet Pantawichartkul has suggested at Monday morning’s parliament meeting that prior to voting for the new prime minister, MPs should be informed about each candidate’s future plans should he become the next prime minister.
“I think they should make known their vision before the voting process begins,” he said. “Prime ministerial candidates should at least tell us whether they plan to amend the constitution and whether they plan to dissolve the Assets Scrutiny Committee. Most importantly, we should all be told whether Mr Samak Sundaravej, who is still involved with corruption, would still face punishment if there he proof that he committed a wrongdoing even if he became prime minister.”

Meet the "gourmet premier" on the air
BANGKOK, Jan 28 (TNA) -Thailand's newly-elected Prime Minister Samak Sundaravej, a self-acclaimed gourmet of Thai cuisine, is keen on hosting a one-hour radio programme "Samak-Styled Talk Show" on Sundays to "talk just about anything especially food."
The 72-year-old premier who repeatedly said he has been cooking since childhood has hosted cooking programmes on television and has written articles about his adventures and feelings about food in the last several years. His latest cooking programme was aired on TITV and was among the programming suspended when the station closed.
"The Constitution doesn't restrict a prime minister from talking about food. I think I'll have a one-hour programme on Sundays," said Samak.
"Even the prime minister of New Zealand can be a tour guide to promote the country's tourism. I may host a similar tourism programme in the future."
During the parliamentary debate on Monday morning, the food-obsessed premier briefly left the session and headed for the Parliament cafeteria where he ordered a dish of rice with curry and stir-fried asparagus.
Swarmed by a huge throng of photographers and reporters while having his lunch, Samak complained, "If I have to encounter this everytime I have my meal, it will be an unhappy life for me. See there's no boiled egg, no omelette and the curry is not hot. How will you feel if you are in this situation while having your meal?"
Asked if he would dine at the canteen when he works at Government House, Samak said he had already been doing that when he was a deputy prime minister.
"Regularly having your meal at your customary shop is not unconstitutional or against parliamentary regulations," quipped the new premier. (TNA)
