Prime Minister Paetongtarn Shinawatra has firmly dismissed rumours of a Cabinet reshuffle, asserting that her government remains unified and unchanged. Despite speculation over coalition tensions and potential changes in economic roles, the PM assured the public there are no plans for reorganisation.

 

"Everything remains the same," she stated, acknowledging public opinion polls but emphasising calmness amid transitory political conditions. Notably, questions had arisen about possibly replacing the coalition partner Bhumjaithai with the Palang Pracharath Party (PPRP), but PM Shinawatra remained adamant about stability.

 

She addressed the inconsistency between Pheu Thai's original anti-military stance and its current coalition with pro-military parties, highlighting the coalition's necessity due to a lack of majority.

 

 

 

Acknowledging some differences within the coalition, the PM lauded the partners for their efforts in implementing government policies and unity. She also noted differing opinions with her father, ex-PM Thaksin Shinawatra, though clarified there was no conflict.

 

Deputy PM Phumtham Wechayachai confirmed no signs of a reshuffle, attributing speculation to outside sources and stressing the coalition's commitment to resolving differences. Klatham Party leader Narumon Pinyosinwat also dismissed reshuffle rumours, denying any lobbying for other positions.

 

PPRP secretary-general Paiboon Nititawan refuted rumours about the party rejoining the coalition. The current stance underscores the government’s focus on cohesion and continuity amid external speculations.
