webfact Posted August 7, 2019 Share Posted August 7, 2019 Ombudsman accepts for consideration PM’s oath-taking controversy (Photo) Ombudsman’s website Thailand’s ombudsman has accepted for consideration a petition from Mr. Srisuwan Janya, secretary-general of the Thai Constitution Protection Association, regarding Prime Minister Prayut Chan-o-cha’s alleged incomplete recital of an oath in the swearing-in ceremony before His Majesty the King last month. The political activist wants the ombudsman to determine whether the Prime Minister violated Section 161 of the Constitution by not reciting the oath in full and then pass the matter to either the Constitutional or Administrative court if the ombudsman rules that the Prime Minister did violate the charter, said Mr. Raksagecha Chaechai, secretary-general of the Ombudsman’s Office, on Tuesday. He added that he had instructed legal affairs officials of the Ombudsman’s Office to look into the facts of the matter and related legal aspects and to submit their findings to the ombudsman for consideration.

d2b2 Posted August 7, 2019 Share Posted August 7, 2019 The failure to perform the very first step of the job correct.y is a bad omen. The fact that the first step is to pledge to uphold and protect the constitution is disturbing. The fact that the constitution you failed to pledge to uphold is one you made up yourself and all but forced is scary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
