It is reported that Admiral Prayi, former deputy prime minister of Thailand and leader of the Civic Power Party, has not attended a parliamentary meeting for a long time, causing considerable controversy. On September 19, the secretary general of the lower house of Thailand, Apat, revealed in an interview with media reporters that according to the constitution, all parliamentarians should not take more than a quarter of the day of the meeting.
At the same time, the leave form of the Suspended Member will be approved by the Speaker of the House of Commons, and the approved leave period will not be included in the above quarter; Unapproved leave is considered absent if it is more than a quarter of the meeting day and will have an impact on the Member himself/herself. As for Admiral Bayi's absence from the meeting, Apatt said he had learned from the investigators in charge of the matter that Bayi had submitted false slips every time, and all of them were on personal leave.
In response to this matter, Pheu Thai MP Wisu publicly stated on September 19 that he had never seen Pa Yat since he joined the House of Commons parliament, and that if he did not sign up to attend the meeting, he should not occupy his status as a member of parliament and be ashamed of the taxes paid to the people. It would be irresponsible for a Member to visit the premises on a meeting day and should not remain in the Council. In this regard, he expressed the hope that Pak Yat would reflect on himself, and if he did not have time to attend the meeting, he should resign from his post and give up the opportunity to the new generation, and bluntly said that the MPs who did not attend the meeting were "disgusting".
