Move Forward Party accuses government of trying to derail Progressive Liquor Bill

Move Forward Party (MFP) leader Pita Limjaroenrat accuses the government of issuing an edict to ease liquor production restrictions specifically to derail the MFP's Progressive Liquor Bill.
The government's edict became effective just one day before the MFP's bill was scheduled for its second and third readings in the House.
Pita argues that while the MFP has campaigned for liquor liberalization for years, the government's sudden move is not true liberalization but introduces new restrictions designed to block small producers.
