House Speaker Wan Muhamad Noor Matha is facing an ethics complaint after allegedly pulling strings to appoint a high-profile officer to a key role in the parliamentary office. Former Democrat MP Wachara Phetthong has filed an ethics complaint against House Speaker Wan Muhamad Noor Matha, accusing him of bypassing parliamentary procedures to bring a high-profile police officer into the Secretariat of the House of Representatives. According to Wachara, Wan, through his secretary, asked the Department of Provincial Administration to temporarily assign Atitiya to the House Secretariat. Asked whether Wan could fairly oversee the investigation, given his roles as both House Speaker and chairman of the House Ethics Committee, Wachara insisted Wan should excuse himself during any inquiry, reported Bangkok Post. Despite the storm of criticism, there has been no public comment from Wan or the House Secretariat.
