Architect’s ‘dirty’ pledge: Faeces target as Pheu Thai Party’s political coalition stirs surprise

[webfact]

 

Thai architect Duangrit Bunnag has turned an unusual promise into a reality, offering himself as a target for faeces-throwing after the Pheu Thai Party forged an unexpected coalition with the Palang Pracharath Party (PPRP).

 

Duangrit is a member of Creative Action for Revival & People Empowerment (CARE), a group associated with the Pheu Thai Party led by Deputy Leader Phumtham Wechayachai.

 

CARE emerged from differing perspectives within the Pheu Thai Party, diverging from the path of its former leader Sudarat Keyuraphan. Initially assembled in preparation for a new political party launch, CARE remained aligned with the Pheu Thai Party following Sudarat’s departure and formation of her own Thai Sang Thai party.

Amidst the Pheu Thai Party’s separation from the Move Forward Party (MFP), conjecture swirled regarding the party’s future trajectory. Some speculated on a collaboration between Pheu Thai and the military-backed parties to establish the government.

from the article:

"Meanwhile, Pheu Thai Party leader Chonlanarn Sikaew encountered his own promise-related dilemma. Initially pledging not to align the party with PPRP, the United Thai Nation, or any factions associated with the military regime, Chonlanarn’s party had to adjust its stance for practical political reasons, ultimately forming a government.
Chonlanarn stepped down from his leadership position but retained his seat as a Member of Parliament (MP). Expected to assume the role of Minister of Public Health, given his healthcare background, Chonlanarn’s journey illustrates the complex dynamics of political commitments.”

 

That's hilarious. Now I am imagining the "complex dynamics" of poop-slinging...

Another thing: as soon as Pheu Thai became the government, news became entertaining again! So there is that.
