[webfact]

 

The near completion of Sappaya-Sapasathan, Thailand’s new parliament building, is set to be celebrated by House members and staff on Constitution Day, December 10, as stated by Deputy House Speaker, Padipat Santiphada. He disclosed that the structure is virtually finished, with a final audit committee meeting planned for Monday to examine the project’s status.

 

Padipat indicated that if the project is approved at the meeting, the handover event could be scheduled for the end of the month. If everything proceeds as anticipated, the celebration will take place on December 10, with a two-year warranty on the new parliament from that date.

 

The House members plan to organise various activities as part of the celebration, including photography contests, an open house for the public to inspect the building, and even a public gathering, a right encapsulated in the constitution. Padipat revealed that additional details about the event will be announced on September 27, reported Bangkok Post.

Wow, a "two-year warranty" – and I got five years warranty on my modest roof from SCG...
