Thaeng Unfazed by Democrats' Rival Claims, Asserts Pheu Thai Leads Draft Petition to Probe NACC on Sakdisiam Case
Pheu Thai is leading a petition to investigate the NACC over Sakdisiam Chidchob's shareholding case, with some Democrat MPs set to co-sign despite the party's rival announcements on the same matter.
Nattapong Ruengpanya, speaking at Parliament on May 6, confirmed that Pheu Thai is leading the draft petition to investigate the NACC regarding Sakdisiam Chidchob's nominee shareholding case, stating that opposition parties have been coordinating through the opposition mechanism. He noted that some Democrat MPs are ready to co-sign with Pheu Thai, with ongoing efforts to gather the 140 signatures required by the Constitution to submit to the parliamentary president. Pheu Thai's legal team is heading the petition drafting process. Regarding the Democrats' separate announcements on both the NACC matter and the borrowing decree case, Nattapong emphasized that all opposition parties have the duty to conduct oversight, though he cautioned about the borrowing decree petition to the Constitutional Court, expressing concern about potential public impact given the ongoing energy crisis. He noted there is a 60-day timeframe for the court petition, and if the borrowing decree bill enters Parliament, Pheu Thai is ready to debate and question the government on it.
