The countdown to Thailand’s general election has well and truly begun, though it remains unclear whether Prime Minister Prayut Chan-o-cha will dissolve the House of Representatives early or allow it to complete its four-year term in March. But political parties are already battling hard to win hearts, minds and votes.

 

MPs from both the government and opposition camp have stepped up the frequency of visits to their constituencies.

 

Coalition leaders have formulated populist measures aimed at wooing voters while key opposition figures are promising a better future for their supporters and firing allegations of serious wrongdoing apparently aimed at discrediting those in power.

 

The collapse of House meetings due to a lack of quorum has become more frequent as lawmakers look ahead to the national vote, scheduled for May 7 unless Prayut calls an early election. Many MPs are opting to skip Friday House meetings in favor of visiting their constituents in the provinces over weekends.
