Move Forward Party says new government will push for marriage equality

[snoop1130]

 

The leader of the Move Forward Party has pledged to bring back a bill that seeks to legalise same-sex marriage in Thailand. Pita Limjaroenrat posted on Facebook to say once in power, his government will also push for a number of other gender equality issues.

 

“Once we can form a government, we will push for the passage of the marriage equality bill within 100 days. It is also part of a memorandum of understanding signed by members of the coalition.”

 

The Move Forward Party has entered into a coalition with 7 other parties with which it signed an MoU on May 22. Included in the MoU is a promise to pass the stalled marriage equality bill and improve gender equality.

Does this mean that foreign husbands with Thai Wives and foreign Wives with Thai husbands will have the same Immigration rights?

We can only hope so.
