According to PP head Natthaphong Ruengpanyawut, the major opposition party, the ruling Pheu Thai Party is enlisting the support of the ruling party to push for constitutional reforms that would stop new political turmoil.
The action is in response to Mr. Natthaphong’s statement on Thursday on August 14 and Srettha Thavisin’s treatment as elite and the earlier breakdown of the Move Forward Party ( MFP).
The PP is considering changes to two legal systems that led to these happenings being brought about by Constitutional Court purchases.
The MFP was disbanded because it supposedly sought to undermine the democratic king while Mr. Srettha was purged as prime minister for appointing ex-convict Pichit Chuenban as a government minister.
A provision in the charter that authorizes party dissolution and a section of the National Anti-Corruption Commission ( NACC ) Act that deals with politicians ‘ ethics are the two areas of concern.
The main opposition party believes that the work and contract should be half amended to shield lawmakers from political prohibitions on moral grounds and social parties from disbanding. The group has said the social restrictions, either for 10 times or for life, for social reasons was equivalent to a death sentence in a president’s job.
The 10-year restrictions is usually placed on party executives who have been ordered to be disbanded. The 10-year political ban is enforced by the Election Commission (EC ) via the organic law on political parties, whereas party dissolution is mandated by the constitution.
The NACC complies with the NACC Act when it violates ethics and is subject to a life-long social restrictions.
The PP does not want to go it alone in seeking the modifications, Mr. Natthaphong asserted on Thursday.
He claimed that many more politicians were given a life social restrictions and that Pheu Thai had to endure an ordeal as a result of Mr. Srettha’s removal as premier. Many more may wind up having the same death, he said.
” It should be a typical plan to pursue. We might likewise hold conversations with people of other parties, including those in the state, over this”, the PP president said.
He said that, in theory, political parties may be established quickly but become difficult to disintegrate. The basis for dissolving events, he said, may meet international standards.
According to Mr. Natthaphong, this needs to be done right away because the proposed adjustments are likely to be interpreted as a change to the court’s or an independent organization, which calls for a vote.
He claimed that lifetime social bans are increased and should be revised as needed to consider the seriousness of the punishment.
What constitutes ethical violations should be changed to the concept of ethics for political positions.
