Thailand: Group of protestors want NRC dissolved.
(From Thai Press Reports)
Section: General News - More than 50 protestors who claimed to represent Buddhists and religious organisations gathered in front of the Prime Minister's Office building on Wednesday to demand the dissolution of the National Reconciliation Commission (NRC), The Nation reports.
The group echoed a statement by Pattani Buddhist leader Phra Maha Tawin Khamkaro, who said that the government must scrap the NRC because it is too sympathetic towards militants who have killed monks.
Protest leader Professor Sathian Wipromha said the duties of the NRC overlap with those of state agencies charged with ending the violence in the deep South.
He said the 50-member commission doesn't represent the majority of Thai people because the members are picked by NRC chairman Anand Panyarachun.
The NRC and the government have consistently expressed opposing views on the handling of the situation in predominantly Muslim region.
In a statement distributed to reporters and handed to a government official, the group said the commission has deepened the divide between Buddhists and Muslims in the region.
