Accused gambling MP sits on Anti-Corruption Committee, claims Thai Patriots Network leader

[webfact]

 

Srisuwan Janya, the leader of the Thai Patriots Network, revealed that a member of Ratchaburi’s House of Representatives, previously accused of gambling in a viral video, sits on the Anti-Corruption Committee.

 

This is a committee that is highly contested, especially when the individual was a member of the Blue Party during his tenure as a Ratchaburi representative.

 

Despite the selection of 35 committees as per the constitution under Article 129 and regulations 90 – 91, each composed of 15 members, the process is not as straightforward.

 

A representative can only sit on a maximum of two committees, with nominations submitted by each party until complete. However, this does not mean that any representative can nominate themselves for any committee.

This is Thailand, what makes you think it should be.

Like Thais drive on the left, except when it is more expedient, at least when they drive on the right 99% are at the side of the road.
