Chuvit Kamolvisit, a political campaigner, has confirmed that he has phase 3 liver cancer and has vowed to spend the rest of his life educating community about issues that others are reluctant to discuss or bring to light.

The original massage parlor king revealed this just before a media conference on Thursday about Sansiri’s management under the former chief executive of the Pheu Thai Party, Srettha Thavisin, who is currently running for prime minister.

On a program hosted by renowned newsreader Sorrayuth Suthassanachinda on his YouTube and Facebook channels, Mr. Chuvit revealed his health problem.

I have phase 3 kidney cancer that has almost progressed to phase 4, which is the final stage, so I definitely don’t have much time to live, he said.

He added that he is receiving treatment and that this indicates the cancer is spreading to other tissues or body parts.

Mr. Chuvit claimed that many people had questioned whether it would be better for him to take a break and concentrate on his wellbeing. He did, nevertheless, claim to be content with what he is doing.

He said,” I enjoy what I’m doing.” ” I do it with a lot of love.” I enjoy sharing what I’ve learned with others and revealing the truth— the truth that some people are afraid to state. the reality that people are unaware of. I let go of my anxiety when I speak. I feel liberated.

” That is how the cycle of existence works. We get bored and pass away after we are born. I want to keep everything on before my time is up.

The former legislator gained notoriety last November when he provided proof against dubious Chinese companies, including a fugitive gang connected to Chaiyanat” Tuhao” Kornchayanant, bars run by Chinese groups that were selling drugs to Chinese citizens, and online gambling sites and gaming dens in the nation’s capital.

His most recent effort focuses on Mr. Srettha’s qualifications. According to Chuvit, he assisted 12 landowners in avoiding taxes totaling 521 million baht when Sansiri bought a prime 400-square-wah story on Sarasin Road in Bangkok( a square woo equals 4 square meters ).

Sansiri has refuted the charge. The company stated in a statement that the sellers were in charge of handling the taxes and rights transfer fees for the property sales, while the company was simply required to make payments at the agreed-upon prices and transfer ownership of the property.

Democrats will try again to pick leader on Sunday

Because of” unjust” voting laws, some party rebels want the Election Commission to halt the meeting.

Democrats will try again to pick leader on Sunday
Previous Democrat Party leadership and prime ministers Chuan Leekpai and Abhisit Vejjajiva will participate in the group’s first leadership election on July 9 at the Miracle Grand Convention Hotel. Due to a lack of consensus, the appointment was postponed until August 6. Varuth Hirunyatheb( picture )

According to party spokesman Ramet Rattanachaweng, the Democrat Party’s leadership contest will go on as planned despite some users petitioning the Election Commission ( EC) to postpone the election on Sunday.

A July 9 party resolution was revoked by about 100 Democrats on Thursday, and the unique assembly to choose a new leader and senior board was postponed until the controversial party regulations were updated.

The 70: 30 balanced voting law used in the selection method, according to the team led by Chaiwat Traiyasunant, does not follow democratic principles.

According to the rule, current MPs make up 70 % of the total, with the remaining 30 % being made up of other members. Critics argue that this law needs to be changed or the new round of election may encounter issues.

However, Mr. Ramet stated that the Democrats will put the group’s ideals back of their own interests even though it is only natural for there to be competitors.

Additionally, he insisted that party rules and associated laws be followed when holding the meeting on July 9.

Members’ rights were never violated, he claimed, by the group’s decision to forego the customary procedure of determining the recognition of each nominated candidate.

Political observers view the Democratic leadership race as a gauge of the party’s political leanings and whether it will join the Pheu Thai Party & nbsp coalition or remain in the opposition camp.

Due to a lack of consensus at the meeting on July 9, no new president was chosen to achieve Jurin Laksanawisit. It was said that there was turmoil at the meeting between two camps competing for party authority.

Abhisit Vejjajiva, a previous party leader, is reportedly on one side, and younger people are wanted to take over the group, according to the other. If Mr. Abhisit takes the head, it is anticipated that the party will remain in the opposition; however, if a rival gains power, Pheu Thai may join forces with it.

After the May 14 election, in which the nation’s oldest party won just 25 House seats — roughly half the number it won in the 2019 polls— Mr. Jurin announced he was resigning.
