by Deputy Prime Minister Wissanu Krea-ngam, assigned by
the Prime Minister Prayut Chan-o-cha, to lead a new charter-
drafting body that is expected to be formed by next week,
according to a source at the National Legislative Assembly
(NLA).
If Mr
Meechai agrees to accept the invitation to serve as
chairman of the new
21-member charter-drafting committee,
he will be allowed by the National
Council for Peace and
Order (NCPO) to select a number of drafters whom he
thinks will help ensure the process runs smoothly over six
months, said the
same source.
"The reason why Gen Prayut is interested in Mr
Meechai is
the fact that he used to be at the helm of legislative bodies,
both
as Senate chairman and chairman of a national
legislative assembly," said
the source.
"Gen Prayut thinks a person like Mr Meechai is
needed to
draft a new constitution amid conflicts because he can
manage
conflicts well and is likely to win acceptance by
most drafters," said the
source.
Aside from Mr Meechai, the source said, a number of former
members of the now-defunct Constitution Drafting Committee
(CDC) were
also on the NCPO's list of prospective candidates
to be new constitution drafters. They include Sujit Boonbongkarn,
Kanjanarat Leewiroj, Banthoon Sethasiroj, Banjerd Singkhaneti
and Preecha
Watcharaphai.
Names of non-former CDC members on the list include former
Thammast
Universityrector Surapol Nitikraipoj and Likhit
Theerawekhin, a political
science academic, said the source.
Surachai Liangboonlertchai, the first deputy
chairman of the
NLA, meanwhile, dismissed media reports that he had been
approached to join the new charter-drafting committee.
Qualified charter
drafters not only have to have sound
knowledge of the law, politics and public
administration,
but also direct experience in charter drafting and studying
political problems and obstacles hindering the implementation
of a
constitution, Mr Surachai said.
Gen Prayut said he planned to next week complete
his
selection of new constitution drafters and he expected to
sign off on the
appointments before he leaves for a United
Nations meeting on Sept 23.
Legal
experts should take a leading role in the new charter-
drafting committee to
resolve problems that may arise, he said.
In past charter drafting, he said,
problems had simply been
identified but no actual processes had been created to
resolve them.
The
premier also called on politicians to stop defaming the
government, saying he
would not tolerate any more political
activities obstructing the government's
work or that of the judicial
system.
"Who on earth would take responsibility if
I allow such
[one-sided] opinions to be made and cause damage to the nation?
I
don't care [about such political opinions] because if I cared,
I would not have
got to where I am now," Gen Prayut said.
News,Politics,Bangkok Post, 11 September 2015.
In my viewpoint,Base on his background and knowledge
as for the fact that he used to be at the helm of legislative
bodies, both as Senate chairman and chairman of a national
legislative assembly.
I think Mr Mechai can lead to write the new draft
charter.
Others professional who want to scarify for the country
should invite into the committee also.
In the point of legal term in practice if the draft
charter is
pass to be in effective
I think it is very importance.
Hope for the sound committee to make sound draft
charter.
Sincerely Yours.
