rooster59 Posted October 5, 2019 Share Posted October 5, 2019 Opposition claims they have not considered amending Constitution Section 1 Opposition parties have distanced themselves from Kasetsart University lecturer Mrs. Chalita Bandhywong, who has come under heavy online criticism for her proposal to amend Section 1 of the Constitution, defining Thailand as a single and indivisible kingdom, a proposal which some have interpreted as advocacy for separatism. Opposition spokesman Adisorn Piangkate said today (Friday) that his bloc has never considered changes to Chapters 1 or 2 of the Constitution, but merely demand the restoration of liberties and freedoms. Seven core members of the opposition parties and five academics have been accused, by the forward command of the Internal Security Operations Command, of inciting public unrest while participating in a September panel discussion in Pattani province. However, criticism has focused on Mrs. Chalita’s controversial comment regarding Section 1 of the charter.
