The National Assembly of the Republic of Thailand is the supreme legislative body of Thailand where it meets at the Sappaya-Sapasathan in Bangkok. The National Assembly possesses legislative supremacy and thereby holds ultimate power over all other political bodies in Thailand, including the provincial assembly and community assemblies across the country. As a bicameral legislature, it is separated into the Lower House (Hall of the Sum) and the Upper House (Hall of the Moon).

The Hall of the Sun is the elected lower chamber of the National Assembly, with elections to 350 single-member constituencies and 250 party-list members held at least every four years under the mixed-member proportional representation (MMPR) system. By constitutional convention, all government ministers, including the prime minister, are members of the Hall of the Sun, or less commonly the Hall of the Moon, and are thereby accountable to the respective branches of the legislature. Most Cabinet ministers are from the Lower House, while junior ministers can be from either house.

The Hall of the Moon is the elected upper chamber of the National Assembly, with election to 250 party-list members under the proportional representation (PR) system held at least six months to one year after the lower chamber election. By constitutional conventions, the Upper House is responsible for scrutinizing the Lower House legislative and decision-making, while also maintaining a supreme authority over the provincial assemblies, thus acting as the de facto representative of provincial-based interests within the National Assembly. In exercising this authority, the Upper House can delay legislation and require changes to such a legislation if it is in conflict with the national interests or consensus among the affected provincial administration.

◤Legislative Process

◤Pre-Legislative Consultation

The legislative process of the National Assembly begins well before a bill is formally introduced, as each political party consults with various organizations within the country. The primary consultation occurs at the Worker Council Summit, a regular national gathering of representatives from worker cooperatives across various sectors. This summit identifies key issues and proposes legislative priorities.Additionally, the National Assembly maintains a website serving as its digital democracy platform where citizens can propose and vote on potential legislation. Bills receiving significant support must be considered by the National Assembly, with the Hall of the Moon responsible for formally introducing them. An annual economic planning conference also plays a crucial role in developing long-term economic strategies through collaboration between legislators, economic experts, worker representatives, and government officials.

◤Bill Drafting and Introduction

The bill drafting process in the National Assembly emphasizes collaboration and transparency, differing from traditional legislative systems. Guided by the Transparency and Information Act of 2003, the process follows the Open-Source Legislation (OSL) framework. Draft bills are published on a public digital platform, allowing citizens and experts to comment, suggest amendments, and propose alternative language. For draft bills with significant economic implications, the National Assembly must publish potential impacts on various sectors and regions. Predictive analysis, algorithm assessment methods, and AI-driven models are used to forecast these impacts. When draft bills propose substantial changes to the economic system, they require sponsorship from worker cooperatives and regional economic councils to ensure widespread support.

◤Committee Stage

The National Assembly’s legislative refinement process emphasizes consensus during the committee stage. Besides legislative members from both houses, randomly selected citizens, similar to a jury duty system, join rotating citizen panels to provide public input. For draft bills affecting multiple economic sectors, a special committee, the Cross-Section Integration Committee (CSIC), is formed to coordinate overall economic planning. By this stage, all National Assembly members have reviewed the draft bill in preparation for plenary debates. The Regional Impact Subcommittee (RIS) within the Hall of the Moon analyzes each bill’s potential regional impact to ensure equitable development.

◤Plenary Debates

After draft bills are formally introduced, typically by the Hall of the Sun, parliament members debate them before passing them to the Hall of the Moon. If the Hall of the Moon, or its members, introduces the draft bills, the National Assembly holds a joint session for debate. Instead of traditional for-and-against debates, the National Assembly uses a structured dialectical process to synthesize diverse viewpoints into cohesive policies. While opposition to proposed bills is common, the focus is on presenting alternative policies or implementation mechanisms. Each debate session includes a designated timeframe for experts and workers from relevant sectors to provide insights. Members of the public gallery can also pose questions or offer brief comments.


◤Voting and Passage

During the voting process on draft bills in the National Assembly, a tiered majority system is used for different types of bills. While a simple majority is the minimum threshold, some bills with specific characteristics require different levels of majority to reflect their importance and implications. For example, bills significantly altering the planned economy system require a supermajority of three-quarters of all sitting members of parliament. If there is a close split within a twelve-vote margin, a national referendum among worker cooperatives or the entire population is automatically triggered for final approval, depending on the specific bill. Once draft bills are approved by the National Assembly, the Prime Minister of Thailand must sign the legislation into law, as there is no veto mechanism in place.​

◤Role of the Opposition

◤Structural Position of the Opposition

Unlike other parliamentary systems, the Opposition is a formally recognized by the 2003 Constitution of Thailand as an internal check and balance body within the legislative branch. Apart from acknowledging the existence of the Opposition, the constitution outlines its specific powers, responsibilities, and protections, cementing its role as an essential component of the democratic process. The Leader of the Opposition is a formally recognized position by the constitution to be elected by the non-governing parties. The office holder is tasked to form a Shadow Cabinet, mirroring the structure of the government, to provide alternative policies and scrutiny across all areas of governance. The constitution guarantees the Opposition the representation on all parliamentary committees, including the Cross-Section Integration Committee (CSIC) and the Regional Impact Subcommittee (RIS).

◤Functions and Powers

Within the structured dialectical process, the Opposition plays a crucial role in presenting and defending alternative policies. They are tasked with developing comprehensive policy proposals, not just critiquing government plans. The Opposition takes leadership in holding the government accountable through regular question periods in both Hall of the Sun and Hall of the Moon. It also has the ability to call for and lead investigative committees on the government while having access to government documents and data for thorough analysis. The Opposition has a formal role in engaging with the public through its participation in the Worker Council Summit, direct interactions on the digital democracy platform, and hosting of the town halls and public forums to gather citizens input on alternative policies. The Opposition also has a formalized role in the annual economic planning conference to present alterative economic strategies and critiquing government proposals.

◤Empowerment Mechanisms

The Opposition receives substantial public funding and resources, including staff, research facilities, and access to expert advisors so it can function effectively. The rationale for this resource allocation per national law is to ensure they can develop well-researched policy alternatives and effectively scrutinize government actions. The Opposition is guaranteed media time to present their views and alternative policies to ensure the public has access to diverse perspectives. In certain critical areas, such as constitutional changes or fundamental alterations to the economic system, the Opposition is granted a limited veto power through required higher threshold of vote to overrule. It also has the power to trigger national referendums on critical issues, subject to certain threshold and safeguard to prevent misuses.

Preamble​

The Universal Basic Income and Cooperative Economic and Solidarity Act is founded on the principle outlined in Article 1,4, 45, and 49 of the Constitution of Thailand. These articles establish the state’s obligation to promote social justice, substantive equality, and economic democracy, and universal human dignity in line with the vision of communism, wherein class and systemic inequalities are eradicated.

This Act acknowledges that a guaranteed Universal Basic Income (UBI) is crucial to ensuring every citizen’s basic needs, economic security, and the empowerment of individuals to fully engage in society’s decentralized, cooperative-based economic activities. Additionally, the Act seeks to foster greater participation in worker cooperatives, solidifying the socialist participatory democracy of Thailand.

Legislative Content​

Section 6: The Universal Basic Income (UBI) is a periodic, unconditional payment granted to all lawful citizens of Thailand, irrespective of employment status, income level, or participation in the cooperative economy. The UBI serves as a guarantee of economic security and a tool for redistribution justice, facilitating greater personal autonomy and substantial equality in a classless society. However, the UBI is a policy under the transitional regime of the socialist participatory government of Thailand where the Thai state remains essential to lead the society into a stateless and eventual moneyless society.
Section 7: The UBI shall be provided at a level sufficient to cover basic living costs, adjusted regionally (Southern, Western, Central, Eastern, Northern, Northeastern) to reflect variations in living expenses and shall be reviewed biennially by the National Economic Planning and Redistribution Board in coordination with local worker councils, community councils, and the Ministry of Social Development and Human Security. The UBI shall be disbursed on the fifteenth day of each month.
Section 8: Funding for the UBI shall be sourced primarily from the Public Cooperative Contribution Fund (PCCF), a national solidarity fund into which all worker cooperatives, public enterprises, and labor-managed organizations contribute a percentage of their net social revenue.
Section 9: In addition to cooperative contributions, a Socialized Wealth Tax shall be imposed on high-net-worth individuals (individuals with upper income according to the Progressive Taxation Act B.E. 2547), structured progressively to redistribute wealth in line with the state’s egalitarian principles. Revenue generated from this tax shall directly support UBI funding, ensuring that the wealthiest members of society contribute proportionately to social solidarity.
Section 10: Income generated through Thailand’s AI-assisted dynamic pricing mechanisms for goods and services—designed to optimize resource allocation and capture social and environmental costs—shall be partially allocated to UBI funding. In practice, Redistributive Surplus Value shall be added to the cost-plus pricing model.
Section 11: The UBI is intended to empower individuals by providing economic security independent of employment, enabling citizens to engage in meaningful work, pursue further education, or participate in cooperative-based activities without the threat of financial hardship. By alleviating dependence on traditional wage labor, the UBI fosters an environment in which individuals can more freely participate in the cooperative and democratic management of the economy.
Section 12: In line with Article 4 of the Constitution, the UBI is a tool for achieving substantive equality, ensuring that economic opportunities and resources are distributed equitably. The UBI helps to close the gaps created by geographic disparities, social stratifications, and systemic biases inherent in previous economic structures. Through direct financial redistribution, it rebalances the concentration of resources and promotes greater economic democracy.
Section 13: The UBI (is intended to) reflects the state’s commitment to the gradual withering away of class distinctions, in line with the ultimate goal of communism. By decoupling basic income from labor-market participation, the Act undermines the capitalist logic of wage exploitation and paves the way for a classless society. Moreover, the UBI supports the goal of a stateless society by fostering community-based economic systems grounded in cooperative ownership and mutual aid.
Section 14: The administration and distribution of UBI shall be handled through Thailand’s Digital Democracy Platform, ensuring transparency, citizen oversight, and efficiency. The platform shall be upgraded to allow individuals to monitor disbursements, propose adjustments to UBI levels, and participate in discussion about funding and economic impacts of the UBI through community assemblies.
Section 15: UBI implementation will be subject to oversight by the Regional and Cooperative Oversight Committees (RCOCs), which are tasked with ensuring that funds are fairly distributed and that the cooperative economic remains sustainable. These committees, composed of citizen representatives selected through participatory processes, will also address any potential challenges in UBI delivery and discrepancies across regions.
Section 16: The National Economic Facilitation and Social Cohesion Policy Development Board shall conduct regular impact assessments of the UBI to ensure it continues to meet the evolving needs of citizens. These assessments will analyze UBI’s effectiveness in reducing poverty, promoting cooperative participation, and fostering broader economic stability.
Section 17: While UBI guarantees a foundational income, it shall complement Thailand’s Universal Basic Services (UBS), which provides comprehensive healthcare, education, housing, legal aid, and childcare. Together, UBI and UBS are designed to eliminate poverty, ensure universal access to essential services, and foster substantive equality within the framework of economic democracy.
Section 18: Worker cooperatives and public enterprises shall integrate UBI into their economic models, planning for collective investment in local infrastructure, green energy projects, and sustainable development initiatives. The UBI shall thus not only act as a financial safety net but also catalyze innovation and participation in decentralized economic planning.
Section 19: No person or cooperative shall require citizens to forfeit their UBI benefits as a condition of employment, cooperative membership, or access to services. Violation of this principle shall result in legal penalties, including fines and suspension of cooperative privileges.​
