The Election Commission (EC) has provided clarification on its new electioneering regulations during the 180-day period prior to the end of the House of Representatives' term.
EC secretary-general Sawang Boonmee on Tuesday chaired an online meeting of directors of provincial election committees nationwide to explain the new rules in detail.
He said political parties and election candidates will be free to attend social and traditional events such as weddings, funeral rites or ordination rites and they can offer flowers or wreaths, but not money or other assets, with the exception of the hosts arranging their own money for the parties and candidates to give to monks, Mr Sawang said.
