According to Deputy Prime Minister Phumtham Wechayachai, former prime minister Thaksin Shinawatra has the full legal right to attend campaign rallies in Udon Thani and Surin provinces in preparation for the upcoming Provincial Administrative Organization ( PAO ) chair elections.
Mr Phumtham, who likewise serves as defence secretary and is a Pheu Thai older member, said he has not spoken to Thaksin about the author’s plan to join the fighting.
But, Thaksin is expected to attend demonstrations as a battle associate from Nov 13–14 in Udon Thani and from Nov 19–20 in Surin. On November 23 and 24, the candidates for the PAO head in Surin and Udon Thani will be voted.
Thaksin was not required to support the plan, according to Mr. Phumtham. ” There’s no problem to worry about. Social events must adhere to the rules, he said. ” It’s alright for]Thaksin ] to travel to the provinces]and be a part of the canvassing effort ]”.
He added that Thaksin will just help Pheu Thai’s member, Sarawut Petphanomporn, a four-time MP, a process which people from any group is permitted by the rules to perform.
Mr. Phumtham compared Pita Limjaroenrat to the main opposition People’s Party ( PP ), which is rumored to be supporting its candidate’s PAO chief poll in Udon Thani.
The MFP, dissolved for trying to subvert democratic dynasty, was reborn as the PP. As an MFP administrative, Mr Pita faces a 10-year social restrictions.
Thaksin, on the other hand, had his prison for crimes reduced via a royal forgive, was afterwards let out on parole, and is now a completely man.
Pheu Thai’s supremacy of Udon Thani was being reaffirmed by some experts. In next week’s general vote, the party, which usually secured a fresh blow, was defeated in three of 10 constituencies in the state, which has long been its democratic heartland.
The Thai Sang Thai Party won two seats in the PP and the PP won one. Mr Phumtham stopped quick of predicting whether the PAO surveys, where the PP and Pheu Thai are competing, may get severe.
Linthiporn Warinwatchararoj, Pheu Thai lieutenant secretary-general, said Thaksin is no longer convicted. He can enjoy the liberty to join in election efforts, she said.
She noted that Mr. Pita was vehemently and publicly enabling political parties and the PP despite being banned.
