Prinya" sees the next round of senator elections as a new system, pointing out that the red party did not score beyond the target, making the 3rd-ranked party popular with votes in both houses, resulting in high bargaining power, while the Pathum Thani Provincial Administrative Organization election battle, everything ended in court, seeing Pheu Thai as not being a guarantee of the area after Move Forward did not send anyone to compete. Organizing a seminar 'Looking at the New Senators: Hope or New Crisis' organized by the Thai Journalists Association, Mr. Prinya Thaewanarumitkul, a lecturer at the Faculty of Law, Thammasat University, talked about amending the constitution, especially the selection of senators in the self-election system, saying that it may not be easy because it requires amending Article 107 of the constitution, which has an overly complicated system. Amending only the organic law has a higher chance because there is no condition for using the votes of 1/3 of the MPs and senators. Therefo re, he thinks that next time there will be a change in the system for selecting new senators. However, if we analyze the politics from a legal perspective, it is clear that the red party wants to have a network in the Senate, but it may not exceed its target. But the party that exceeded its target is another party, which is the third-ranked party. Therefore, it means that the government party will expect to have bargaining power from the Senate, especially Mr. Thaksin, who expected that the Senate will have more bargaining power but failed. This means that the blue party will have more bargaining power because the first-ranked party is the opposition, the second-ranked party is the government, and the third-ranked party is already popular. As for whether it will reach a crisis or not, we have to wait and see whether the Election Commission will announce it sooner or later, including the fate of Mr. Settha Thavisin, the Prime Minister, to the Constitutional Court, which will also include the fate of the first -ranked orange party. As for the election of the PAO president, where Mr. Chan Phuangphet, the PAO president candidate, narrowly won, does it reflect the popularity of Mr. Thaksin Shinawatra, the former prime minister? Mr. Prinya admitted that it had an effect when Mr. Thaksin and the Pheu Thai Party leaders went to the area to help campaign. Even though he won by more than 1,000 votes, Mr. Thaksin was considered another important factor because there were many related issues. It must be understood that Pathum Thani Province is the original area of ??the Pheu Thai Party, but recently it has lost the area to the Move Forward Party. Before this, Mr. Chan was a former PAO president for many terms, but recently lost to Pol. Lt. Gen. Kamronwit Toopkrachang in the previous term. Therefore, on the other hand, it must be analyzed why Pol. Lt. Gen. Kamronwit lost. One factor may be the early election, and another factor is that the two previous elections for the Pathum Thani PAO president were held during the school break. Meanwhile, Pathum Thani Province has more than 10 universities, and some students have to move their household registrations to the university. In addition, there is no advance voting system, so it must be called for. Election Commission orders amendment of local laws Mr. Prinya also believes that in this election, the Pheu Thai Party cannot guarantee that it will defeat the number one party because the Move Forward Party did not send a candidate for the Provincial Administrative Organization president to compete in this election. However, it is at least the return of the Pheu Thai Party in Pathum Thani Province in the hope of defeating the Move Forward Party next time. However, the important thing is when the EC will announce the certification of Mr. Chan and whether he will be able to perform his duties or not. In addition, the announcement to stop performing duties also involves the Ministry of Interior, which is the matter of another party, the Bhumjaithai Party. Mr. Prinya stated that it must be understood that Mr. Chan has all the qualifications to apply, which the Pheu Thai Party itself is right. He does not lack even a single qualification because the court has not ruled. However, winning the election but not being able to perform duties, this matter has been answered by the Council of State since December 2022 because such incidents have occurred in three areas, to which the Council of State replied that it has an effect on the new election because it is contrary to the intent of the law in order to not interfere with evidence. However, he questioned whether the EC informed Mr. Chan when he applied because there is such a guideline, including whether the Pheu Thai Party knew or not. If they knew and still did it, it would be considered a mistake. And if they did not know, it would be considered a mistake as well. Therefore, he believes that the Bhumjaithai Party would not put itself at risk in the matter of the Council of State's ruling in this manner. And if this matter is to end, it will end in court because of Section 81 of the NACC Act. When the court accepts the petition, they must stop performing duties. But the court can order otherwise. Which Mr. Chan or the Pheu Thai Party You can go to the court and ask for a different order.-319.-Thai News Agency Source: Thai News Agency
