Bangkok: Wiroj Lakkhanaadisorn, a prominent leader of the People's Party, has candidly admitted that the party is not without its imperfections and has areas needing improvement. He expressed an understanding of both praise and criticism, acknowledging that these reflect public engagement with the party, even though he himself may not be privy to all internal narratives.

According to Thai News Agency, Wiroj shared his insights on his personal Facebook page, emphasizing that no claims have been made about the People's Party being flawless. He highlighted the dual reality of areas requiring improvement alongside significant progress. As an insider, he witnesses genuine changes within the party, recognizing that every effort yields varying results, some beneficial and others less so, a common occurrence in large political organizations facing complex challenges.

Wiroj further acknowledged that other political parties are also evolving and adapting. The ever-changing social, economic, and political landscapes mean that strategies effective in one era might not work in another. Despite this, he affirmed that all decisions, whether successful or not, have been made with good intentions, without malice or deliberate harm. Mistakes are acknowledged as part of the process, but the intent remains constructive.

Addressing criticism, Wiroj conveyed understanding towards critics whose expectations were unmet or whose concerns were not addressed promptly. He views criticism as a positive indicator of continued care and desire for party improvement. If critics had truly lost hope, they would disengage rather than voice concerns.

Wiroj advised against retaliating or dismissing critics as misinformed. He likened the situation to that of football fans who critique based on visible performances rather than insider knowledge. Suggesting critics ought to assume direct roles to have a say is not constructive, as everyone has distinct roles and responsibilities.

He emphasized the importance of openness to listening and understanding that all parties likely have good intentions towards the party and the country. Misunderstandings, if stemming from good intentions, should prompt the party to improve communication strategies for clarity and accuracy.

Wiroj concluded by advocating for viewing such situations as collaborative learning opportunities. Differences should be addressed through dialogue, and after debates, parties should come together to resolve issues, working towards collective progress without repeating past mistakes.
