A signature collection campaign was launched yesterday (Sunday), at the Bangkok Art and Culture Centre and in 18 provinces, to seek a referendum for the writing of a new Constitution, with public participation from the start.

 

The campaign, launched by civic groups which are against the existing charter, which they allege was crafted in favour of establishment elites, will run until August 20th and collect at least 50,000 signatures. Supporters can also sign up via the http://conforall.com website.

 

After having collected at least 50,000 signatures, the campaign organisers will submit them to the cabinet, demanding that a referendum to be held for the drafting of a new charter, in accordance with the Referendum Act B.E. 2564 (2021).
