Samak calls an urgent party meeting to nominate the House speaker
Prime Minister Samak Sundaravej called an urgent meeting of his People Power Party executives for Wednesday's afternoon at 4.30 pm in the wake of his party's infighting over the nomination of the House speaker.
"Samak has notified every party executive to attend the meeting in full force in order to finalise the decision on who should be the House speaker," party executive and MP Nisit Sithuprai said.
The meeting was rescheduled from next week.
Nisit said the majority of northeastern MPs still wanted to nominate MP Chai Chidchob for the job although they would abide by the decision by the party executive board.
