Might help if the article explained what the constitutional amendments are and how they benefit Thaksin before everyone jumps to conclusions.

Totally agree. I've not read of any pending amendments. They certainly won't touch 112 which is Taksin's next hurdle. 112 of course isn't part of the Constitution, but part of the Thai penal code, so I don't know what he is referring to.

I found this in another forum. It outlines the sections in question. The man Thanakorn is objecting to any amendments. He's the DL of the UTN, Prayut's tailor made party when he split from PPRP. An ultra royalist/conservative. Already they're digging their heals in. Hands off the constitution!

 

"The original intention of Sections 160(4) and (5) of the 2017 charter, for instance, is to keep people who do not meet certain moral standards from obtaining power in public office, Thanakorn Wangboonkongchana, deputy leader of the UTN, said on Friday."

Principles established by Prayuth when he binned the constitution after his coup.

 

As for Mr Chaiyamongkol , looks a bit old to be leading students ? Did he ever take to the streets to protest the coup ? Nice military haircut though.

 

 

He was with Suthep in 2014, and the military constitution is exactly the kind of "reform" he was protesting for.
