 : The grounds for promulgation of this Amendment to the Constitution of the Kingdom of Thailand are as follows: Whereas it is appropriate to have a procedure for preparation of an entirely new constitution to serve as an important foundation for political reform, in respect of which the regime of democracy with a Monarch as Head [of State] would still and forever be maintained, a constitution drafting committee composed of persons from various fields and occupations would be established as an institution charged with the preparation of a draft constitution for the purpose of developing a new political structure which is more stable and efficient, and people would also be given an opportunity to take part in approbating the constitution through a referendum; it is therefore necessary to enact this [Amendment to] the Constitution of the Kingdom of Thailand.
