People’s Party to finalise PM candidate as executive board meets tomorrow
16 Sept 06:58Key points summarised by AI
The People's Party executive board will meet tomorrow to finalize its prime ministerial candidate, with 143 MPs expected to support the chosen individual.
The party has extensively gathered feedback from over 100,000 members and MPs nationwide, with diverse opinions still being considered.
Despite rumors, the party confirms no decision or vote has occurred regarding support for either Bhumjaithai's Anutin Charnvirakul or Pheu Thai's Chaikasem Nitisiri.
The People's Party prioritizes parliamentary dissolution and constitutional amendments, viewing the selection of a new prime minister as a strategic step if immediate dissolution is not pursued.
