A constitutional amendment proposal seeking elections for provincial governors was submitted to parliament on Monday by the Progressive Movement and the Move Forward Party (MFP) as part of their administrative reforms campaign.
Core group member Pannika Wanich and MFP communications and policy manager Parit Wacharasindhu handed over the proposal along with a list of 80,000 supporters to House Speaker Chuan Leekpai.
The proposal, which was received by Phongsri Tharaphum, one of Mr Chuan's staff, seeks changes to Chapter 14, to allow people outside Bangkok and Pattaya to also elect their governors.
