Politics Thai Political Parties Face Dissolution Threat Over Thaksin Allegations
Photo courtesy of Observer Voice In a dramatic twist to the ongoing saga of Thai politics, a complaint was filed with the Election Commission (EC) seeking the dissolution of seven major political parties. The complaint, lodged by political activist Nopparuj Vorachitwutthikun, accuses these parties of allowing interference by former Prime Minister Thaksin Shinawatra, potentially breaching the nation's organic law on political parties. Nopparuj, with a history of political activism, submitted his request at the EC office, urging an investigation into whether Thaksin’s alleged involvement equates to control over these parties—violating Sections 28 and 29 of the law. Should these allegations be substantiated, parties including Pheu Thai, Democrat, and Prachachat could face dissolution under constitutional sections 92 and 93. Central to Nopparuj's complaint are claims that prominent figures from these parties have visited Thaksin’s residence, Chan Song La, in Bangkok. Furthermore, a leaked call allegedly linked to the temporary suspension of Prime Minister Paetongtarn Shinawatra, Thaksin’s daughter, has intensified scrutiny. Nopparuj also highlights meetings reportedly held at the Rosewood Hotel, a venue tied to the Shinawatra family, which has served as a frequent gathering spot for the ruling Pheu Thai Party. These incidents have raised alarms about Thaksin’s potential influence over party affairs. Nopparuj argues that Thaksin’s public statements in interviews and social media suggest an exertion of influence, particularly in Pheu Thai. His comments on issues such as the Thai-Cambodian border conflict have further prompted concerns about national security. Nopparuj accuses the involved parties of failing to limit Thaksin's influence, suggesting that instead of curtailing his activities, party officials—including executives and Cabinet ministers—appear to support him. He stresses the importance of the EC’s intervention to uphold legal integrity. This follows separate developments in Thaksin’s legal controversies. Today, the final hearing concerning his stay in a premium ward at the Police General Hospital takes place. Former Deputy Prime Minister Wissanu Krea-ngam is set to testify as the defence’s key witness. This marks the conclusion of a series of hearings, with a ruling date anticipated soon. Political observers eagerly await the EC’s response, as potential party dissolutions could significantly disrupt Thailand’s political landscape, affecting governance and party dynamics. Meanwhile, conversion of political power remains a critical watchpoint, with many questioning how these proceedings could reshape alliances and electoral strategies across the nation. The financial implications and political ripple effects from dissolving major parties are immense, as parties face not only reputational damage but also substantial financial ramifications, with potential losses converting into billions of Thai baht. As Thailand navigates these turbulent political waters, the resilience of its democratic institutions and legal frameworks is set to be tested again. The unfolding events underscore the complex and often contentious intersection of law, politics, and influence in the country. Adapted by ASEAN Now from The Thaiger 2025-07-30 -
