The Democrat party has decided to drop the candidature of former party leader Abhisit Vejjajiva, for the chairmanship’s post of the House committee studying constitutional amendments, because of the uncertainty of success.

 

The party’s chief whip, Mr. Chinnaworn Bunyakiat, said that the party would need support from the other coalition parties for Mr. Abhisit to be elected, and it was not sure that such support would be forthcoming.

 

Members of the House committee elect its chairman.

 

The Democrat party has chosen four members to sit on the House committee, namely Banyat Banthadtan, Suthat Ngernmuen, both party-list MPs, deputy leader Nipit Intharasombat and constituency MP Thepthai Senpong.
