snoop1130 Posted June 20, 2016 Share Posted June 20, 2016 New constitution promotes public rights and freedom: CDC chairBANGKOK, 20 June 2016 (NNT) – The new constitution will safeguard the general public's rights, freedom, an anti-corruption mechanism, and prioritizes on national reform, says the CDC chairman.The Constitution Drafting Commission (CDC) Chairman Meechai Ruchuphan has given a speech on the objectives and key contents of the new constitution during a seminar, that the CDC has considered all issues from the past as guidelines to the draft constitution to prevent reoccurring problems that the nation has faced to resurface. He admitted that it was difficult to covey contents of the 279 articles, written in the new constitution, to the general public.He has said the new constitution dictates that the government must be required to disclose information to the general public, while providing public services. He assured that an anti-corruption mechanism exists in the draft constitution along with a compulsory ethical evaluation of officials from independent agencies and the right to impeach any official proven to be involved with misconduct.The new constitution will also provide 14 years of free education to the general public, emphasizing on quality and discipline of new graduates. Other contents include a call to reform the justice system, including the police, and to constantly monitor all laws and amend them up to keep Thailand's laws relevant and up to date.Source: http://thainews.prd.go.th/website_en/news/news_detail/WNPOL5906200010019 -- NNT 2016-06-20 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smarter Than You Posted June 20, 2016 Share Posted June 20, 2016 Yet the public has no right or freedom to talk about the constitution before the referendum for if they do they may face 10 years in jail. I can't wait to see and hear how these guys react to the inevitable defeat of this lousy document. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yellowboat Posted June 21, 2016 Share Posted June 21, 2016 If only one hand is clapping, is there any sound to hear??? Yes, the good general came out today telling opposing parties not to monitor the referendum. Abhisit may need to say something, as seems to be the only one who can speak out against the junta's quashing of freedoms. The world will remember if he does nothing.
