Former prime minister Anand Panyarachun said that coup-makers should ensure that the problems that led to the coup in the first place do not return.
"We should not let problems such as corruption or complete control of power to return, otherwise people will ask what the coup has achieved. We should ensure this doesn't happen," he said.
Anand, who was appointed prime minister after the 1991 coup, said a military power seizure was not always a bad thing, though he did not support it.
