webfact Posted January 4, 2023 Share Posted January 4, 2023 Bhumjaithai Party leader Anutin Charnvirakul, right, and Prime Minister Prayut Chan-o-cha, left. Photo: Manager Online. By Thai Newsroom Reporters BHUMJAITHAI PARTY leader Anutin Charnvirakul today (Jan.3) categorically dismissed speculation that he would merely wait to succeed Prayut Chan-o-cha as prime minister if the current one eventually continued to run the country for two more years after the next general election. Anutin told reporters there will be no such thing as an “heir apparent” to the top post of government when asked whether he might possibly afford to see Prayut prolong his rule for two more years as provided by law after the nationwide election, regardless of a decisive number of MPs who may successfully endorse a partisan contestant for prime minister, so he would then take his turn to power throughout the latter half of the next House of Representatives’s four-year term. The deputy prime minister-cum-public health minister insisted that the Bhumjaithai traditionally and automatically become core of a post-election coalition only if the second largest coalition partner, steered by de facto Bhumjaithai boss Newin Chidchob, happened to get most of the elected MPs, thus rendering the opportunity for his rising to power without sharing it with anyone else.

Adumbration Posted January 5, 2023 Share Posted January 5, 2023 Pure lies. It is absolutely a done deal. I have been saying it here on this forum for years. You just need to google early photos of Anutin and see who he used to hang out with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't believe he's in good stead within this circle. We'll have to be finding someone within the inner circle club to be more suitable. Any viable candidates are dwindling. Here's an idea......how 'bout opening it up to all comers in a true free and democratic fashion. Nah. That might completely disrupt the ongoing oligarchical rule. Never mind.
