Prime Minister Prayut Chan-o-cha is set to attend at least 10 campaign rallies across Thailand, hosted by the United Thai Nation (UTN) Party in preparation for the May 14 General Election. As the UTN’s chief strategist, the 69 year old Gen. Prayut will start his campaign tour in Bangkok, and will put on festival attire to participate in Songkran festivities alongside residents.

 

UTN secretary-general Akanat Promphan announced the party’s commitment to implementing a 1,000 baht monthly allowance for the elderly, as well as reminding party candidates to adhere to election rules prohibiting live entertainment at campaign events, reported Bangkok Post.

 

In other political news, the ruling Palang Pracharath Party (PPRP) has launched a new single with an upbeat tune to represent its election campaign. The song, which will be played at nationwide rallies, communicates party leader Gen. Prawit Wongsuwon’s objectives to overcome social and political issues, reduce poverty, implement effective water irrigation, and provide land to farmers without land.

Any sensible suggestions on how 30 baht a day can improve your life ? Extra packet of Mama noodles perhaps ?

Wouldn't surprise me at all if he took it by a landslide....

PM for life sounds rather exotic.

It is a huge brush and mat that the last 8+ years will be swept under, but, knowing this place!

This man is both utterly intoxicated with power, and totally delusional. I doubt his support level is 2%. After the destruction he caused over the past 8 years, he is despised like never before. People are so sick of this foul army, and it's toxic games and malfeasance. 

 

Out. Out now. Go away. Be gone. You are not liked, respected, or wanted. See ya. You will not be missed.

I had to isolate this hand gesture, and yes, it looks like some parasite's snout ready to gorge on Thailand
