New Constitution for Thailand

Recommended Posts

Posted

Here's something else I don't get. The coup has suspended Thailand's constitution. That, I suppose, is to be expected during a military coup, but why create a new one? What's wrong with the current constitution? I've seen many articles saying a new constitution will be drawn up, but I haven't seen any articles that explain why. Why not simply lift the suspension and go right back to the current constitution? I don't get it.

Does it not have to do with a lack of true checks and balances in the curent constitution? The little I have read reveals that many institutions, including those that run for office are under the "control" of political parties. I am not sure any one knows but possibly much of the current constitution will be retained.
