Senator Wanchai Sornsiri said that as the Move Forward Party is no longer part of the Pheu Thai-led coalition and the country requires a government, the senators will vote in alignment with the majority of the house this time. He said it is evident that the Pheu Thai PM Candidate will undoubtedly amass sufficient votes to secure the position of the next PM, given the support from the senators. https://twitter.com/ThaiEnquirer/status/1689470415322980352 -

Wissanu asks Thaksin not to return on weekends or public holidays A contingency plan is in place for the possible return of fugitive former prime minister Thaksin Shinawatra. Whenever Thaksin does return to face legal action, the Thai government has already prepared plans to handle the situation, Deputy Prime Minister Wissanu Krea-ngam said today (Tuesday). Authorities concerned, including courts and the Corrections Department are ready, Wissanu said. He did, however, ask Thaksin not to arrive on weekends or public holidays. “During those days, the courts, which would assign a jail for Thaksin’s detention, would not be working, which would make things difficult as we would have to find detention venue for Thaksin instead,” he said. https://www.thaipbsworld.com/wissanu-asks-thaksin-not-to-return-on-weekends-or-public-holidays/

The purpose of this investigation is to ascertain whether Chonlanan and the party have contravened electoral rules, particularly the prohibition against using deception to mislead voters with the aim of garnering electoral support. https://twitter.com/ThaiEnquirer/status/1688856598821974016
