Bangkok, 'Senator Sorachat' sees 'Boonsong' sitting as vice chairman of the Senate is suitable, but being the chairman of the committee is more suitable, pointing out that the driving force of the Senate's work comes from various committees. Mr. Sorachat Wichaya Suwannaprom, a member of the Senate, mentioned the case of the independent group of senators who will negotiate with the blue line senators to nominate Mr. Boonsong Noisophon as the second vice president of the Senate, saying that Mr. Boonsong's reputation, knowledge, and abilities are appropriate, but he may not need to accept the position of the second vice president of the Senate. He could sit as the chairman of other committees, such as the chairman of the Senate's legal committee, which would be more appropriate. He believes that the positions of the chairman of various standing committees in the Senate should be allocated quotas to different groups of senators more appropriately than the positions of the president and vice president of the Sen ate, because the main positions that drive the Senate's work are the various committees, while the president and vice president of the Senate will have the main roles in conducting meetings and coordinating with the House of Representatives. However, the chairman position of the various standing committees in this round will have to be reduced from 26 committees because the number of senators has decreased from 250 to 200. The senators will discuss again how many committees will be reduced. Mr. Sorachat also said that the movement of the Blue Line Senate is still quiet at the moment. He does not know who will be proposed as the Senate president or vice president. There should be clarity around July 23, when the Senate will meet to elect the Senate president and vice president.
