In praise of Seksan Prasertkul, a true social democrat
The Bangkok Post, Nov 11, 2009
Bangkok, Thailand -- The Pridi Banomyong Institute is a highly appropriate venue to hold a ceremony to mark the 60th birthday celebrations on Nov 14 for Seksan Prasertkul.
<< Seksan Prasertkul today finds solace in books on social Dhamma and Buddhism, and his companion pet. Mr Seksan turns 60 on Nov 14.
Ajarn Pridi Banomyong was an important leader of the People's Party, which overthrew absolute monarchy. Ajarn Pridi fought unconditionally for an eternal truth: the fact that everyone is equal and that people are equally capable political subjects since they are the actual owners of the country.
This presumption of equality, which was denied under absolutism, propelled the 1932 Revolution and was also vital for the organisation of the Seri Thai Movement against imperialism during World War Two.
We are still living in the political sequence kicked off by the 1932 Revolution, the truth about which we still have to continue struggling for.
Sadly, Mr Pridi's good deeds disintegrated
