The Thai Economic party has decided to leave the government to send a clear message to the public that the party is no longer allied with the administration of Prime Minister Prayut Chan-o-cha.

 

Deputy Leader and Strategic Chief of the Thai Economic party, Wichit Plangsriskul, said today (Tuesday) that the party believes that its loss in the by-election in Constituency 4 of Lampang on Sunday, to the opposition Thai Liberal party, was partially due to being a government coalition partner.

 

He said he has discussed the issue with two other party members, party-list MP Boonsing Warinrak and Kamphaeng Phet MP Pai Leeke, and it was agreed that, to send a clear message to the public, that the party is no longer a part of the government, the two MPs should resign the government whip.

Unless of course .....a lot more cheating and skulduggery puts the military back in power. Then it's cap in hand time.

Sorry, but if voters are anything mile me, they will avoid you like the plague as you 'were' allied with them.

in the article below is more clear.

in 2019 election they had 6 MPs - 5 in government and 1 in opposition. So some 3 of them still in government.

This year they were joined by 21 rebels from PPP, with lead of the Heroin Minister.

Drug Minister Prompao has become secretary-general of that party, but the party did not join an opposition. 

They will have their first chance in the coming censure debate

Yet, the military has obliviously always been in power - even on the occasion of the odd civilian governments throughout the decades, all of which have been steeped in underhand and self-preserving corruption themselves. 

Studious observers will also understand the perpetuating presence of a military/former military majority within both houses parliament and minister cabinets for ages.....regardless of said government. Less, the subliminal militarism doctrine that exists amongst such "public" sectors as policing, education, government employees, etc. 

 

If one is truly curious, and aren't familiar with why these things are the way they are, one could ask themselves why is Thai societal/official infrastructure so bent on the traditional militarism association? What does it represent and protect? Why does it exist? 

 

Has little do do with an individual military guy or the usual corrupted politician that have been instilled into the societal landscape forever. Yet, will debate and discuss such surface and non sequitur entities that have little to do with anything - not grasping how the machine really works.
