BANGKOK: -- Though the core content of the country’s new constitution is known to the public, mystery still surrounds its so-called organic laws, which are still being written. With the uncertainty has come growing concern over how the finished charter will alter the national DNA. 

 

Unlike the previous constitutions of 1997 and 2007, the new charter has no clear provisions for requirements and penalties concerning various different matters. Constitution Drafting Commission (CDC) chairman Meechai Ruchupan has explained that the constitution contains the essential principles while the organic laws will cover the details.

 All eyes are now on the ongoing drafting of the 10 organic laws being undertaken by Meechai and his team.

"mystery still surrounds its so-called organic laws, which are still being written."

 

Mysterious laws in Thailand ?  The "reform" and "reconciliation" are a mysteries too.

about as organic as plastic rice, I would guess. All natural flavorings and colors....  arsenic can be organic, btw

Just when you thought the worse is over with the highly skewed constitution, in step the organic laws in the hands of those crazy right wingers Meechai and his team. To top up the craziness, the organic laws will govern the mysterious and unknown 20 year master plan. It is like stripping naked and ready to be raped. Poor poor Thailand.   

doubt the general public care. they handed away the last scraps of democracy they had by passing the referendum giving the army complete control.

How appropriate, organic laws to be effective for twenty years written by people who are not representatives of the people who will be affected.

And by those who will be dead or senile well before the 20th year of the executed plan.
