Wow!!!!!! A bunch of corrupt rsholes in the CC threatening to boot out a bunch of corrupt rsholes in the EC.

Seems the CC has the highest power in the land now.

Mmmm, but I think that to rerun the Senate election on a proper democratic process (ie the people get to vote) would require the dinosaur-designed Constitution to be redesigned. Which is probably - at this stage - impossible.

 

In any case, removing the 7 EC guys will be a key move in the right direction, if it actually happens. And if it does, what's the next step?

 

Fascinating Thailand. As ever.

Next step needs to be the CC. IMHO both should be gone. They are merely there to protect the status quo that is to say protect the royalist establishment.

In addion to the Senate, EC needs to be 100% elected by the electorate, ie., through their elected ministers in the House. And the House needs subpoena power to not only hold the EC  accountable but all the quasi-state organization such as the Anti-Corrption Commission.

Agree. Thailand is at the mercy of these over endowed institutions, the EC, the CC, and all the silly committees they set up at every opportunity. Wage committee, weed committee, casino committee, land bridge, economic corridors, floods, rice, bananas, peanuts... Ha!
