Measure the skill of the Election Commission to detect corruption in selecting senators.

Today is the first day of opening applications for election to the Senate, which the Election Commission will accept applications until 24 May. The timeline for voting for the election of Senators is set for 3 stages at the district level on 9 June. at the provincial level on June 16, at the national level on June 26, and the announcement of the Senate selection results is scheduled for July 2. Amid the news, some parties are trying to create long-term conditions for Election Commission announces results with the longest delay In order to buy time for NCPO senators to stay on for a long time, the constitution stipulates the important role of senators is to be a representative of the Thai people. Both MPs and senators are not bound by the mandate or responsibility. any domination and must perform duties with honesty and integrity for the general benefit of the country and the welfare of the people as a whole Senators are known as representatives of the Thai people, but the selection of Senators according to the 60 Constitution stipulates that the selection Senate is a vote for selecting among the candidates. It is not directly elected by the people. The method of selecting senators this time has been criticized as being bizarre, not fair, and not being tied to the people. How many senators? The less representative the people are. will only be representative of a small group of people The senator may not feel that Who truly represents and don’t feel that Must be responsible to the people at the same time as choosing the atmosphere The senator was quiet. There is no public campaign at all. This is partly a result of the rules, regulations, and attitude of the Election Commission that creates fear that random acts are against the law. Senator can easily happen. In addition, the punishment is severe to the point of being deprived of political rights. I don’t know if it’s because. Is the Election Commission out of hand or intentional? As a result, this atmosphere has created not only the applicants who are confused and tense with the Election Commission’s regulations, but even the reporters are frightened as well. The media is as patriotic as any other profession. I want a talented, good person to be my representative. But if the news is presented with good intentions, it ends up being harmful to the applicant. It will be a stigma in the heart of the truth. The Election Commission has a lot of time to prepare for selecting senators, but the regulations that have been announced have raised doubts about many issues. Especially the rules for introducing yourself to applicants. Please type in your personal information. educational record and work experience on no more than 2 pages of A4 paper and introduce yourself by electronic means in person. But only applicants were accepted, which the Election Commission gave a reason for not allowing introductions to the public. Because the people are not the voters of the Election Commission, they may forget that The Senate has the status to be a representative of the Thai people. Even though the people did not choose for themselves But they should have the right to know their history and be able to investigate it. The more applicants come out to introduce themselves, There will be more people to help check. and when the people are not the voters When the applicant introduces himself to the public It will not affect the voting. So what did the Election Commission limit the right to introduce oneself for until last week? The Election Commission has agreed to amend regulations for applicants. Senators can introduce themselves by electronic means. By using the text according to the introduction document according to Form SW. 3, which the public may also have access to that information. It is said that the tour must be banned before the Election Commission agrees to make changes. It is often claimed that the various regulations are in place to prevent the formation of gangs to apply. But in practice Politicians have already set up voters. All applicants are in both candidate and selector status. It’s a voter inside. What evidence will the Election Commission find to prove who is the organized group? The quieter and more secretive it is, the more easily it is corrupted. Area with large houses or being a strong voice base of a political party Are you willing to let go and not organize a candidate for Senate? The challenge lies in Will the Election Commission be able to find evidence linking it to the 2019 and 2013 MP elections? The Election Commission has lost face because it is only a bargain, having caught only a few MPs cheating. This time is therefore an opportunity to prove your skills in restoring dignity.
