(Bangkok Post file photo)The National Council for Peace and Order (NCPO) confirms it will meet political parties in June to settle problems that might hinder their preparations for next year's general election. Earlier, some politicians showed lack of confidence due to problems concerning the charter's organic bills on election of MPs, selection of senators and political parties. He made the confirmation after both pre-established and new political parties asked for a pre-June talk on some political issues. The organic bill on political parties directly concerns the NCPO after it issued a Section 44 order to amend the law on political parties.
