Meanwhile, the Bangkok Metropolitan Administration (BMA) asked residents who hail from other areas yesterday to register for advance voting if they were unlikely to be able to return to their provinces to vote on December 23.

Yodsak Khongmak, director of the BMA's Administration and Registration Division, said advance voting would be held on December 15 and 16 at all 50 of the city's district offices.
