BANGKOK (Bernama): Thailand's Move Forward Party filed a motion in Parliament to curtail the power of the 250-appointed Senate after its party leader Pita Limjaroenrat lost his bid to become prime minister.
Party secretary general Chaithawat Tulathon filed a motion on Friday to amend Article 272 of the Constitution. If successful, the amendment would remove the power of senators to jointly vote with elected MPs for the prime minister.
