The area is still dominated by old-school elections.

Political analysts predict that the People’s Party ( PP )’s ( PP )’s ) popularity may be declining as a result of the party’s massive losses in Sunday’s municipal elections.

According to them, this should serve as a session for the party to take away and improve its general vote preparation.

Voting took place on Sunday in 2, 463 towns across the country, including 213 Muang, 217 Tambon, and 33 Nakhon.

There are 4 558 candidates for mayor, and there are 515 candidates for provincial government votes.

To pack seats that were left vacant by those who finished their conditions on March 27 were 2, 128 leaders and 33, 346 provincial councillors.

The polls attracted special attention from the public, with reports implying fierce rivalry between candidates from nearby political clans and those with support from major parties like the ruling Pheu Thai Party and the opposition PP in a number of crucial battlegrounds.

Individuals who previously served as disciplines, such as previous Chiang Mai president Assanee Buranupakorn from Pheu Thai, who defeated Thirawut Kaewfong from the PP, have recently emerged as winners according to unofficial surveys benefits.

Former prime minister Thaksin Shinawatra also supported Mr. Assanee in the plan.

Illegal poll results for Nonthaburi’s Nakhon Pak Kret city indicate that Passakorn Thitithanawanich lost to Wichai Bandasak, a former president, in the PP.

Wannarat Charnnukul defeated Yutthapong Supattarawanich, a PP member, to become the provincial mayor-elect in Nakhon Ratchasima.

In all 15 of the 15 PP-affiliated gubernatorial individuals ‘ contests, all of them lost.

Just five of its gubernatorial candidates won in the Muang city elections, while nine of its gubernatorial candidates won in the tambon city elections, results that were far below the party’s expectations.

Illegal benefits for the Nakhon Pathom showed that Chatchawal Nanthasarn from the PP, who had a lead of 13, 462 seats, Somchok Pongkwan from the Santi Tham team won the mayor’s vote by 14, 588 seats.

The results of the municipal elections, according to Wanwichit Boonprong, a political science analyst at Rangsit University, do not provide any hope for social change because the provinces still have an old-fashioned, traditional politics system.

Regional political clans keep a tight hold on local authority. It’s difficult for newcomers or other candidates to win, he said.

” All PP candidates lost in the primaries in the Nakhon city. They simply won in the” little tambon communities,” he claimed.

” Many people think regional elections are just a waste of time because they believe local politics does not result to any major change in federal elections. The same old eyes are still the victors.

The Political and Public Policy Analysis Institute’s Director, Thanaporn Sriyakul, claimed that the PP submitted 94 municipal applicants, but only 13-14 of those voted for the office, or less than 15 %, won.

” We wouldn’t suggest the group has failed, would be a rest.” The MFP, which is now reborn as the PP, won up to 14 million seats in the general election of 2023, he claimed.

The PP can then make an excuse for the difference between native elections and national polls. The PP does acknowledge that its popularity is a concern.

Mr. Thanaporn noted that other events are using their strategies to appeal to younger voters to recruit individuals from younger years.

He claimed that new-generation officials are no longer restricted to the PP.

Additionally, he added, political parties that succeed may be able to maintain their popularity persistently throughout elections.

They can’t afford to completely crash in elections, even though they may not need to win every election. For their victory, Mr. Thanaporn continued,” consistency is key.”

Following the six incidents of last week, six people died, and Thais are being warned about a fall in Covid-19 diseases.

According to information from the Department of Disease Control ( DDC ), Dr. Thira Woratanarat of the Chulalongkorn University, Dr. Woratanarat of the Faculty of Medicine, posted on his Facebook page on Monday.

According to Dr. Thira, according to the DDC’s statement from last week, there were 16, 607 persons apparently infected between May 4 and May 10, compared to 14, 680 the past year.

Six of those reported to have died last year, more than the equivalent of the range the previous week.

According to Dr. Thira’s post,” The DDC statement showed an increasing spread of the disease, which was contrary to the assertion that the Public Health Ministry had previously stated.

In addition, Dr. Yong Poovorawan, a microbiologist in the Paediatrics Department of Chulalongkorn University’s Faculty of Medicine, posted a message on Facebook claiming that the most recent Covid-19 subvariants are reported to be transmitted more quickly, have lighter symptoms, and can be treated identically to various respiratory illnesses.

Dr. Yong’s article confirmed the Public Health Ministry’s report on Saturday, which stated that although case numbers are still great, the virus typically has mild symptoms.

According to Dr. Yong, the study found that the Covid-19 virus subvariants mutate more swiftly, making them more different strains. The early strains is also spread rapidly, albeit with less severe symptoms.

Due to the “immune imprinting” process, the more recent Covid-19 strains cannot be immediately prevented by vaccination.

Immune etching occurs when the body produces antibodies and memory cells that contain information about vaccinations or viruses to which it has recently been exposed.

Due to the product’s ability to only protect against older Covid-19 strains, younger strains do not respond to typical vaccination. The document has reduced the hospital’s Covid-19 vaccine purchasing.

People with Covid-19 were reported to be already being treated’likely’ as those with other respiratory diseases, with no quarantine time specifically designated, despite the large number reported recently,” said Dr. Yong.
