Prachachart party remains with government coalition - Tawee
11 Sept 02:07Key points summarised by AI
Prachachart Party Leader Tawee Sodsong confirmed the party will remain in the government coalition and continue to support Prime Minister Paetongtarn Shinawatra, despite public calls for withdrawal.
The party's political position is to back the government in its duties to protect the country and provide moral support to the military and other relevant parties.
Tawee noted that the potential departure of the Bhumjaithai party, which commands 69 votes, would necessitate full attendance from all remaining government MPs during critical parliamentary debates.
This announcement occurs amidst a separate controversy where a former senator and activists filed a complaint against PM Paetongtarn concerning a leaked audio clip, demanding her resignation.
