Srettha Thavisin, the prime minister, has accepted the results of a fresh ballot that placed him in a remote third place among those qualified to take the position, stating that he respects the opinions of the people.

The prime minister was responding to questions about the study conducted by King Prajadhipok’s Institute. He claimed that his bad reputation could not be justified by the budget’s delay in passage.

The study “reflects the people’s opinions.” We have to honor the effects”, he said.

In a list of seven individuals for the championship, according to the poll released on Sunday, he was in fifth place with only 8.7 % help. A common election were scheduled soon, though.

Pita Limjaroenrat, the list’s lead, was easily led by Pheu Thai Party chief Paetongtarn Shinawatra and former prime minister Prayut Chan-o-cha.

Bhumjaithai Party leader Anutin Charnviraul, previous Democrat Party leader Jurin Laksanawisit&nbsp, and Palang Pracharath Party chief Prawit Wongsuwon were behind him.
