No, thank you: Members of civil groups show their opposition to the draft constitution during a seminar at Thammasat University's Tha Prachan campus. "The legal language in the draft constitution is difficult to comprehend for many ordinary people," she said. "Lawmakers didn't involve the public in the draft process, and instead had a ready-made draft constitution where the only feedback we can give is 'yes' or 'no.' PDRC leader Mr Buddhipongse said if the constitution is rejected, the NCPO might need to use its powers under Section 44 to set up a new constitution drafting committee. Democrat Party leader Abhisit Vejjajiva also announced last week he would not accept the draft constitution, saying it was his personal stance but one which reflected the ideology of his party.
