The opposition Move Forward Party has finally come up with a candidate for the Bangkok gubernatorial election expected in the next few months. For many party supporters, Wiroj Lakkhanaadisorn is the party’s best choice, but others had hoped for a stronger candidate and a bigger name.

 

An online PR onslaught over the past weeks culminated in Move Forward unveiling Wiroj as its candidate during an event at party headquarters on Sunday (Jan 23) evening.

 

Wiroj, a debutant MP and the party’s spokesman presented himself as a governor hopeful who is ready for a “head-on collision” with any serious issue that is harming the city and its residents.

Hope he wears a helmet.

It's only Bangkok. But a win by forward thinking might start the ball rolling to get rid of the loser generals.
