Labourers want to play a greater role in politics

Labourers are seeking a greater role in politics.

Somyos Preuksakasemsuk (สมยศ พฤกษาเกษมสุข), chairman of the Alliance for Democratic Labour Union, said workers wanted the constitution amended to lift the requirement that candidates for seats on the Senate must have at least a bachelor’s degree.

Mr. Somyos said labour workers also wanted to have a say in key political issues and the rights to peaceful gathering.

They also wanted seats on independent bodies responsible for scrutinizing the government, he said.
