BANGKOK: -- QUESTIONS HAVE been raised about the appropriateness of the Election Commission (EC) joining hands with politicians on newly-established bodies, instead of inspecting them.

 

A committee to “develop” political parties in line with the charter’s national reform approach was established on Tuesday per order of the EC president Supachai Somcharoen. The committee is headed by Anek Laothamatas, honorary member to Thammasat University Council, who has a record of working with the ruling government and was keen on the reconciliation approach. 

 

The committee also consists of Pheu Thai Party’s secretary-general Phumtham Wechayachai, Democrat Party’s deputy leader Chamni Sakdiset, Bhum Jai Thai Party’s leader Anutin Charnvirakul, and Chart Thai Pattana’s key figure Nikorn Chamnong, as well as some experts and academics.
