1/07/2011

The Democrat and Pheu Thai parties will today wrap up their election campaigns with massive rallies in Bangkok in a final push to drum up public support and get a decisive majority.

The Democrats hope about 90,000 supporters will fill the Royal Plaza while the 70,000-seat Rajamangala stadium will host Pheu Thai voters.

A 600-strong force from the Metropolitan Police Division 1 has been assigned to the Democrat's venue and another 700-man unit from Metropolitan Police Division 4 will be deployed to the Pheu Thai rally.

The two rallies will be broadcast live via satellite to their provincial election centres and streamed online.

Democrat leader Abhisit Vejjajiva will stress that when the people exercise their rights on Sunday they will determine the direction the country will take for the future. He will also highlight how he is prepared to work to achieve the kind of future the people want.
"[Mr Abhisit] will show why they should vote for the party and how the country will benefit from it," said Democrat Sathit Wongnongtoey.

Mr Abhisit said yesterday the party was buoyed by a warmer-than-usual response over the past two weeks.

He reiterated that the country would go beyond one man and start to focus on problems facing the nation if they elect the Democrats.

Other key speakers are Apirak Kosayodhin, the party's election director for Bangkok, and deputy party leader Korn Chatikavanij. The rally is scheduled to kick off at 6pm.

Pheu Thai's Yingluck Shinawatra will present the party's "Vision 2020".

Vision 2020 outlines 20 targets Pheu Thai will try to achieve, including improving infrastructure, increasing the use of green energy, graft reduction and improved administration of justice. She said the party is looking ahead to the next eight years.

"The voters will see what they are in for if they elect Pheu Thai to power.

"We are projecting a daily minimum wage of 1,000 baht a day and a salary of 30,000 baht for university graduates at entry level," she said.

The Pheu Thai rally is scheduled to start at 4pm. Key speakers include Chalerm Yubamrung, Plodprasop Suraswadi and Natthawut Saikua. Mr Natthawut yesterday likened today's rallies to two cinemas screening different movies, with Pheu Thai showing the way to the future as the Democrats focus on political violence and struggle.

"So select the theatre you want to go to," he said.

According to Mr Natthawut, the Pheu Thai Party has asked people about the government's handling of national affairs during the election and been told it was a failure.

Meanwhile, Democrat strategist Korbsak Sabhavasu said yesterday his party will not be picking up from its previous campaign rally at Ratchaprasong intersection.

The Democrats last week took their campaign to Ratchaprasong, where last year's red shirt protest turned chaotic, and blamed the ensuing riots and fatalities on ousted prime minister Thaksin Shinawatra.

Mr Korbsak also took Pheu Thai to task for failing to stick to its campaign platform, saying the party's economic chief Olarn Chaiprawat backpedalled on several issues."At first it was a daily minimum wage of 300 baht for all. Now he is saying it is for skilled labour only.

"The party promised a 15,000 baht salary for graduates, but it is saying it will be limited to certain groups of civil officials," he said.

"Pheu Thai also talked about amnesty for Thaksin, but the plan is being shelved." Mr Korbsak demanded the party be fair to the public by clarifying these issues before election day.
