Thailand Opposition To Boycott Special Sitting On Revised Electoral LawThis article appears in Nation Thailand. Here is an excerpt:

Pheu Thai leader Cholanan Srikaew, who also leads the parliamentary opposition, said on Saturday that MPs from his party will not allow a quorum to be formed.

He said this was the “best solution” to block the revised version’s system of using the 500 figure in calculating the number of party-list MPs – a system that he describes as being “unconstitutional and against principles”.

“Pheu Thai prefers blocking the ‘500 divider’ bill so we can get the ‘100 divider’ bill in the next election,” Cholanan said.
