webfact Posted May 20, 2023 Share Posted May 20, 2023 Following negative reaction online, Move Forward party has dropped Chart Pattana Kla party from its coalition, claiming that it is the wish of the people. The party apologised in an official statement issued today (Saturday). The party’s initial decision to accept Chart Pattana Kla party triggered an uproar on social media last night, particularly on Twitter, where the hashtags “Chart Pattana Kla” and “With Korn, Without Me” were in the top 5 trending hashtags in Thailand. The Chart Pattana party was in the coalition government of incumbent Prime Minister Prayut Chan-o-cha. It later merged with Kla party to become Chart Pattana Kla, to contest the May 14th general election, with Korn Chatikavanij as its leader.

brommers Posted May 21, 2023 Share Posted May 21, 2023 At last a party and a leader who listen to people and respond accordingly. It is amazing to think that this is a first in the history of Thai politics, but a very refreshing and welcome change. They are bound to make mistakes occasionally, they are only human. But at least they have the intelligence and humility to accept and rectify when they are wrong. Bodes well for the future. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bamnutsak Posted May 21, 2023 Share Posted May 21, 2023 Yeah, having an Insurrectionist as part of your "reform" government is a bad look. Probably just a mistake made during this hectic, post-election honeymoon period, which is about to end. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
