EC plans to televise forums and debates on charter referendum
THE Election Commission (EC) has resolved to have public forums on air nationwide via digital TV channels from June 27 until August 6, Election Commissioner Somchai Srisutthiyakorn said after an EC meeting Tuesday.
The forums would be held 13 times – every Monday and Wednesday from the first designated date to the last day – with 30 minutes per episode.
The forums would be given to the Constitution Drafting Commission to explain the charter draft content, the National Legislative Assembly to explain its additional question, the EC itself to explain referendum procedures, and invited guests to debates without censorship.
