Yesterday Phumtham said it had been conceded to MF but today he backtracked after Adisorn objected. Imo opinion MF should insist as the senators' won't let Pita be PM 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A change is clearly evident.... But now, it's ripe for sweeping change that benefits all - not just a handful of cronies.

webfact Posted June 19, 2023 Share Posted June 19, 2023 UPDATE: All 500 MPs-Designate Ratified Now By Thai Newsroom Reporters ALL 500 MPs-DESIGNATE were today (June 19) ratified by the Election Commission, capping a five-week period of the nationwide electoral process. Election Commission secretary-general Sawaeng Boonmee announced today’s ratification of all 400 MPs-designate running in constituency-based mode and all 100 MPs-designate vying in party-listed mode after investigation had been earlier conducted into allegations of vote-buying and other breaches to the election law involving a total of 71 winning contestants vying in the former mode. It has taken the polling agency a five-week time to hold the nationwide race to parliament and ratify the winners following the May 14 election.

webfact Posted June 19, 2023 Share Posted June 19, 2023 Election Commission confirms all 500 elected MPs Thailand’s Election Commission (EC) announced they are confirming all 400 constituency MPs and 100 party-list MPs this afternoon (Monday), and that they can collect their certificates from tomorrow until June 24th. Speaking at the press conference, however, EC Secretary General Sawaeng Boonmee said that the commission still has the authority to investigate if there is any evidence that an MP was elected in bad faith. The EC can file a petition with the Supreme Court to revoke result and order a new election, which has to be completed within one year of the May 14th original election. The EC has certified the results because any ongoing investigations cannot be completed within 60 days and they have to be fair to all sides and go through all the submitted documents, Sawaeng added.

pepi2005 Posted June 19, 2023 Share Posted June 19, 2023 500 members of parliament!?! Is this new, or have there always been 500 people? Sounds an awful lot even considering the size of Thailand, but also considering that most people in there are not wealthy. That's a lot of salaries and pensions to pay for them...

If tanks fire up it is anybodies guess what sort of a day the country will eventually be at, and how long it will take to reach that day. Do not make the mistake of complacently (smugly?) thinking that any sort of action by the military will go as smoothly as it has before. "Before" vanished in 2016.
