Thai Prime Minister Abhisit Vejjajiva said that his government had started a national reconciliation plan and will not reconcile with terrorists who had done damage to the country.
Abhisit said the government started the plan on June 10 by organising a grand merit making ceremony at the Government House, which involved priests from five religions - Brahminism, Buddhism, Christianity, Islam and Sikhism.
It was held to bring about good fortune and peace to the country, he said.
“We are not hunting down the people who joined the recent anti-government protest in peace as it would renew conflicts. We are thinking of ways for them to live in harmony with others," he said.
The government wants to focus on the reconciliation process to create unity and narrow the social gap in the country, he added.
Previously, on May 3, Abhisit proposed a five-point political reconciliation plan in a bid to end the prolonged rally by the "red-shirts" in Bangkok after two rounds of peace talks between the government and the protest leaders failed./.
